Removing/changing copyright footer in LeptonX theme #10329


User avatar

I can't believe this is still a problem in 2026 despite numerous requests for it over the years, but how can you change or hide the footer in the LeptonX theme?

Even having to do this in a commercial product intended to build things for other clients that are not Volosoft is crazy in itself, even more so that AFAIK, you are still required to actually modify code to do so? Or is there now a better way so we can at least hide the footer with simple CSS change? What is the recommended way to get rid of this?

What is the state of the promised fix / new / updated theme so that this won't be a problem and that you can just change the footer settings?

Please just remove this and let anyone who actually actually have a copyright footer implement it themselves.

Thanks.

    hi

    I will check your project type. Can you create an app with MVC as the UI framework?

    Thanks.

    It is there if you create a MVC project but that isn't any help if you don't use MVC but Angular or similar.

    Please fix this so that we don't have to deal with this in a commercial product at all in the future and also please let us know how we can fix it ourselves in our current project.

    Please also note that this Copyright Volosoft only seem to be shown on errorpage when trying to do authentication, like when you config isn't setup correctly and you get 4XX errors etc.

    Thank you.

    hi

    This is IDE behavior. You can try to add code below to your solution's common.props file

    <ItemGroup>
        <None Remove="**\*.abppkg" />
        <None Remove="**\*.abppkg.analyze.json" />
        <Content Remove="$(UserProfile)\.nuget\packages\*\*\contentFiles\any\*\*.abppkg*" />
    </ItemGroup>
    

    Thanks.

    Thanks.

    That is already in there as default it seems but not sure how that would affect this?

    There are no such files/folders as there isn't even a .Web project

    hi

    I will remove these files from the IDE file views in the next LeptonX version. You can ignore it now.

    Thanks.

    Not exactly sure how that affects things but it seems you are on top of that.

    We still (if I have not misunderstood something here), no solution to the fact that our clients app display @Copyright Volosoft in parts of the backend and we don't know how to remove it?

    hi

    Can you share a screenshot? What is the UI type of this copyright component?

    Thanks.

    hi

    Have you tried copying the _Footer.cshtml to your api project's Themes/LeptonX/ Layouts/Application folder?

    You can create a new mvc template project and copy the _Footer.cshtml to your project with the same folder structure and customize it.

    Thanks

    There is neither a .Web project nor a Themes folder (at least that I know of) when using the Angular template.

    ok

    You can create a new MVC template project and copy the Themes folder to your API project.

    Thanks.

    I believe we actually already did that with the same intention but then we run out of time as you need to force an error to see this (for some strange reason, the footer does not seem to show on login screen, only when error occurs). We will give it a try as soon as possible and report back.

    But it seems like you have already done this so most likely it works.

    hi

    You can use this URL to see the footer

    https://your_api_website/error?statuscode=400

    Thanks. This seem to work and we can now control the content of the footer.

    This said, I really think you should look into this being the default with both an empty footer and the necessary files already in place (for all UI versions). If someone wants to have a Copyright Volosoft in their custom made commercial applications, let them do a change for it rather than all of us not wanting it.

    Thanks.

    BTW, if you copy Themes folder, you will also get the _ViewImports.cshtml file but I guess that should perhaps not be included?

    hi

    Every template project will include a footer component in next version. So developers can easily to customize it.

    _ViewImports.cshtml is useful if you need use more razor features in this folder.

    Thank you, that seems like a good solution/workaround.

    Please consider refunding this ticket as it seems it was warranted and resulted in a change ABP side.

    Thanks.
