Hi @Hafiz_Sheraz_Arshad,

I think it’s likely that you’d have to modify the footer template in the theme you are using - which theme (and which version of the theme), are you using? Perhaps you could also give a link to your site if its live.

Upload a custom .css file with CSS rules (under Settings>Website>Appearence>Advanced>Journal Style Sheet) to hide that div that contains “Developed and Setup by WorkonSolutions LLC”.

Hi @Hafiz_Sheraz_Arshad

It is likely this info was added either to your Manuscript Child Theme or to the Default Theme.
Check the footer.tpl file on the follwoing folders:

lib/pkp/templates/frontend/components/footer.tpl

plugins/themes/defaultManuscript/templates/frontend/components/footer.tpl

One of these templates may have been modified to include that signature to your journal footer.

Best,
Israel

Hi @Hafiz_Sheraz_Arshad

do i need to check “lib/pkp/templates/frontend/components/footer.tpl ” also
Yes, for sure!
This file is present on the core of OJS and should be copied over to your child theme folder if you are willing to customize the section on your reader interface.
