INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

Notice: This module is native to Joomla! 1.5 and will not work on Joomla! 1.0

Installation is pretty straight forward using the core Joomla! installation process. There are no parameters to configure, so you will simply download, install and publish in the position of your choosing.

Step 1

Download the file from the "Downloads" section of this site.

Step 2

Log in to your Joomla! Administrator Panel.

Step 3

Click on the menu, "Extensions". Select the option, "Install/Uninstall".

Step 4

Under the first tab, "Install" (this should be automatically selected by default), the first box says, "Upload Package File". Upload the file, "mod_kf-copyright1-5.zip". The installer will tell you that it was a successful installation.

Step 5

Click on the top navigation menu, "Extentions" again. Select the option, "Module Manager".

IMPORTANT: If your Web site currently displays the default footer that comes with the installation package, you must turn off this module. Look under the "Type" column for a module named, "mod_footer". Click on the green check box that shows up under the "enabled" column to un-publish that module. You will know it has been un-published if the green checkmark is replaced with a red "X".

Find the Simple Copyright Module in your Module Manager (under the "type" column the file name is, "mod_kfcopyright1-5" or "mod_kfcopyright" depending on your version.

Step 5

Enable the module by clicking on it and selecting, "Yes" next to enabled. Select, "No" next to, "Show Title". Select your position where you want to display your new copyright module. The positions are controlled by your template PHP and XML files. Click on "Save" in the upper-right corner and you're done!

Version 2.0 will be out shortly so check back soon
