Changing Green Salad Theme Footer

Permalink
Upgraded to 5.4.0.5 from 5.3.3.1 a few days ago. Using Green Salad theme with Page Type “Orig-home” as my Home page. Want to remove the “Sign In to Edit this Site”/“Currently logged in as admin. Sign Out” part of the footer like I had it before the upgrade. Don’t have this problem on any other Green Salad Page Types I’m using for various pages as I have removed the code lines for this from the default.php, full.php, home.php, and view.php in the concrete/themes/greensalad folder. However, all these changes are not producing a change for the Orig-home page. Also, adding the <?php sign-in {display:none;}?> into the Customize theme CSS form box doesn’t work either. What am I missing here?

Have you tried changing the code in the footer.php?
All those files you listed would be making a call to the footer.php in your themes "elements" folder. So if you haven't changed that, this is probably the problem.

Yeah, that's where I used to make the code change in past C5 versions, but all the Green Salad footer.php file contains in ver. 5.4.0.5 are the following lines of code: =====================================

footer.php
PHP script text
----------------------------------------

<?php defined('C5_EXECUTE') or die(_("Access Denied.")); ?>

<?php Loader::element('footer_required'); ?>

</body>
</html>
========================================
And that's all! There appears to be nothing there to edit/delete. Where do we go from here?

Sorry, I should have looked at that before posting my answer above... So two possible solutions.
1. Try changing the layout from Orig-Home to a Sidebar layout saving it and then changing it back to the Default.
2. Grab a copy of the GreenSalad theme from a previous version of C5 and upload it to your themes folder. Install via the dashboard. In fact, I'll attach the GreenSalad theme from 5.3.3.1 to this post.

Thanks cannonf700....
I was apprehensive about doing #1, so I did # 2. After I edited the uploaded default, full, home, and view php files to again remove the footer lines with the login data, all pages were OK except my home page - those words were still there. So I did #1 - I think? In messing around with the page types, I set the default to Home instead of Orig-Home and that changed the footer so its now OK - no login/sign out words. Since that hadn't changed the footer before, I believe that only worked because I did #2 first. (But, please, don't ask me what I "technically" did to resolve this issue.) Anyway, thanks loads for the good suggestions and the download file. All is working well again.
