Remove cmsms comment from html-source?

[Hare]

Hi

I've used CMSMS for a while and I like it. I like it a lot. I've been asked to do a commercial site and I would like to use CMSMS as the content management system. However. CMS Made Simple adds it's own "signature" to the HTML source:

Could I remove this? I already know how it can be done, but I'm wondering if it would be "ok". The reason why I would like to remove it is that I'm worried about security. I don't want to shout out which CMS I'm using since a hacker could possibly use this information pretty easily if someone discovered a vulnerability in a certain release. Once installed I can't update it later since the server isn't mine.

By the way. This was my first post on this forum so I think it's appropriate to slip in a huge thanks for a brilliant CMS

Eh. Just as I posted I tried another search and found a thread with license discussions.

I've actually removed the version number from this in 0.13 on.  Though, yes, it's ok to remove it if necessary.

Whoah. That was fast Thanks.

Hi.
Very much like yourself, but I generally work with church and charity sites. My question then is how do you remove this "signature" as I have been unable to find it myself.

Thanks.

Oh man

open index.php

find this and delete this:

Code: Select all

if ($config["debug"] == true)
{
	echo "<p>Generated in ".microtime_diff($starttime,$endtime)." seconds by CMS Made Simple using ".(isset($db->query_count)?$db->query_count:'')." SQL queries and ".(function_exists('memory_get_usage')?memory_get_usage():'n/a')." bytes of memory</p>";
}

echo "<!-- Generated in ".microtime_diff($starttime,$endtime)." seconds by CMS Made Simple using ".(isset($db->query_count)?$db->query_count:'')." SQL queries -->\n";
#echo "<p>Generated in ".microtime_diff($starttime,$endtime)." seconds by CMS Made Simple (".$cached."cached) using ".(isset($db->query_count)?$db->query_count:'')." SQL queries and ".(function_exists('memory_get_usage')?memory_get_usage():'n/a')." bytes of memory</p>";
echo "<!-- CMS Made Simple - Released under the GPL - http://cmsmadesimple.org -->\n";

ready
