PHPlist help needed

[medicnick83]

Anyone know PHPlist?

I'm trying to add lists (via the admin area) but the test lists (4/5 of them) show up when someone wants to subscribe, so they ticked active.

I've created 4/5 new ones, also ticked active etc but they will not show.

I've unticked the test lists, and left only the new ones ticked, nothing shows.

Need help please.

I joined the PHPlist forums, and posted a request for help, but no one replies so they probably not as 'busy'

Thanks apogeeza - reviewed it, did what you said, and it's setup.

Why so complicated!!!

Now that you know - it's not complicated

I need to remove the PHP list "powered by" that is on the site.

I found this url: http://newttech.net/open-source-software/remove-powered-by-footer-and-image-from-phplist/

But I can't seem to get it working, can anyone guide me?
This is the code:

/*
We request you retain the $PoweredBy variable including the links.
This not only gives respect to the large amount of time given freely
by the developers but also helps build interest, traffic and use of
PHPlist, which is beneficial to it's future development.

You can configure your PoweredBy options in your config file

What do I need to remove/change so it vanishes completely.

Thanks!

You did see the little bit at the top that says:

We request you retain the $PoweredBy variable including the links.
This not only gives respect to the large amount of time given freely
by the developers but also helps build interest, traffic and use of
PHPlist, which is beneficial to it's future development.

If you still want to remove it, then if you read a little further it says:

You can configure your PoweredBy options in your config file

Failing that put this at the bottom of the file:

$PoweredBy = '';

And I hope you feel really guilty about it all day.

Not at all

Nah, still struggling here, if I edit - buggers up the entire setup, luckily I have a backup which I just replace

Any reason for this?

Did you put the

$PoweredBy = '';

before or after the

?>

at the end of the file? (If there was a ?>)

Any error messages?

Failing that, where can I locally download the phplist so I can play with it.
