The "Corporate Clean" theme introduced a hard-coded footer that contains advertising and cannot be removed optionally by the user. This is a pretty clear violation of Drupal's policy here: https://drupal.org/node/439226

The theme maintainer is unresponsive to complaints, as can be seen by an issue filed by another user here: https://drupal.org/node/1919098

I was directed here as a last resort, so hopefully something can be done. Thanks!

Given that this theme is used by almost 25000 installs a higher priority is appropriate I think. I've contacted the maintainer assigned to the original issue via twitter and pointed him here. Let's wait a day and after that we need to investigate who to mail and what to do next.

Hello,
I just updated this issue https://drupal.org/node/1919098. Next Corporate Clean release will contain this option/theme-setting.

I've reopened the base issue because THERE IS STILL NO NEW RELEASE!

I've mailed gtsopour about this as he seems to ignore the issue queues.

Hello and sorry again for the late response,
Corporate Clean 7.x-2.3 https://www.drupal.org/node/2327793 makes the hardcoded credits (page.tpl.php) admin-configurable.

George

This is cause for celebration, for sure...

It pretty much works as expected. However, if you use a child theme, the setting doesn't seem to stick. Instead the CC parent setting itself is always the one applied.
