I hacked together a little script giving me the ability to define a common footer and place it anywhere I want within a theme. I know pixelpost includes any footer.html present in a theme, but most of the time this destroys the clean look of a theme completely since it is stupidly attached at the very button of the page. Not a good idea. Since most of the themes I had a chance to look at, defined the footer for each of the about_ image_ and browse_ page seperatly, one had to edit those three files to simply change the footer. So I just put together a simple addon which replaces the <FOOTER> tag within template files... now I only have to edit one file to change my footer. If I find the time I'll try to make it into a real plugin, so one can set the footer line from within the admin interface ... but till then, this has to do:

 
<?php
/* Written by Fabian Haupt http://www.fabianhaupt.de */
 
$addon_name = "Pixelpost Footer Tag";
$addon_version = "0.1";
$addon_description = "Introduces a <FOOTER> tag to handle footers more flexible as with the pixelpost's footer.html mechanism.<br />
<b>Installation:</b><br />
Copy footer.php to addons directory and enable the footer tag plugin.<br />
If the addon is not listed in admin view, have a look in your pixelpost_addons table in your mysql database and the the enabled value to on.
<br />
NEW TAGS:
<FOOTER>
";
 
$footer= "&copy; <a href=\"<SITE_URL>\"><SITE_TITLE></a> &bull;"; // Fill this variable with your desired footer code
 
$tpl = ereg_replace("<FOOTER>",$footer,$tpl);
?>
