Header Tag

<!--Powered by nopCommerce - https://www.nopcommerce.com-->
<!--Copyright (c) 2008-2010-->

From nopCommerce 1.7 header please.

Thanks,

Yah. I did that.

My nopCommerce is running live on a webhost.

I followed the instructions there but no change.

Just to be clear, I am talking about the

<!--Powered by nopCommerce - https://www.nopcommerce.com-->
<!--Copyright (c) 2008-2010-->


that you see in the header when looking at the source.


HERE IS MY EDITED BaseNopMasterPage.cs
