   Hi,

   How can I delete the line "Powered by MachForm" in the actual email that I receive from the form. It seems to have conflict with the automatic mail processing program that I use to store the data in a CSV file.

   Thanks,

   Joe

   This is a frequently asked question!

   See this previous post and response

   Just out of interest, what kind of conflict is it having with your system? Don't see how a simple link would interfere....?

   The link you pointed to was posted 8 months ago. Line 375 of includes/helper-functions.php doesn't contain any text of "Powered by MachForm". I am not sure whether you are referring to the same version of the program. I purchased my license just couple weeks ago. Please clarify.

   I am using Mailloop to process the form result. The empty lines between "Powered by MachForm" somehow makes Mailloop not able to process the form result.

   Basically, to remove the "Powered by MachForm", you will need to edit two files:
   - includes/view-functions.php
   - includes/helper-functions.php

   Search for the word "Powered by" there and you'll find it on few places.
   Remove all of them.

   For some reason, even though I edit the Powered by bit, the edit_form.php page always remains the same. It shows up correctly to start with, but when it loads the background image the footer changes all of a sudden.

   Deaddingo, you're asking to remove the copyright and powered by line from edit_form.php --- correct?

   As far as I can tell, you are not able to as the conditions of use (license)refers to and prohibits removal of such notices as "Powered by MachForm © Copyright 2007-2008 Appnitro Software" from the *software* (being the back-end area of the application, not including the forms or emails produced by it.

   The license states:
   " You may not: Remove or alter any copyright notices on the Software (note: You may remove the "Powered by MachForm" footer from your forms)"

   The full licence is here
   http://www.appnitro.com/machform/license

   "The Software" is the actual back-end (Administrative area)of the application - the section where you create the forms, edit forms, view database entries and so on).

   Yuniar has already stated this in another user's question about this matter.

   The only links that can be removed are the ones from the publicly viewable forms and the emails that are sent,as per the instructions Yuniar has posted above, in this thread.

   yuniar - I tried removing all the "powered by" items in the includes/view-functions.php file and didn't find any in includes/helper-functions.php. When doing I got the good old "the website cannot display the page" page. So now what do I do?

    Do you still have the original pages? If so, put them back.

    In includes/helper-functions.php the line you are looking for should be around line 457 (just below where is says //add footer)

    Which page is not actually loading?

    The page is as follows - clubbenradio.com/contact.php The helper-functions.php page does not contain anything relating to footer so I was unable to find it. I removed the "powred by email) from the vie-functions.php page and I get the website connanot display page issue. I've already downloaded the notepad ++ software and I think I've exhausted everything and still cannot make it work. I've left the page with the error so you can view it.

    Is the webmaster link on your site a good place to email you at? I can send you the edited versions of the files (If yuniar does not mind).

    Had you made any other changes at all?

    So, just to be clear, you CAN remove the powered by machform from all parts of machpro, eg the form, the emails, etc, except the admin panal...is that correct?

    Yes, the only exception is from the admin panel.
