Joomla fix: Remove Joomla generator tag

Published in Website Design | On October 27th, 2008

If you look into your Joomla page source in your browser, you would find a Joomla Generator meta tag, which looks something like this: meta name=Generator content=”Joomla!… If you want to remove it, simply goto

includes folder > frontend.php > around line 195 you will find this

$mainframe->addMetaTag( 'Generator', $_VERSION->PRODUCT . " - " . $_VERSION->COPYRIGHT);

simply comment it out by placing //

//$mainframe->addMetaTag( 'Generator', $_VERSION->PRODUCT . " - " . $_VERSION->COPYRIGHT);

That’s it.
