Step by Step to remove Powered by Prestashop from email templates

Default emails are sent to a customer after (s)he creates an account on the website, subscribes to a newsletter, makes a purchase, in case of payment received, confirmation that the order has been shipped and some other cases.

Step I - Edit default Prestashop email template

To edit Prestashop email template version 1.7, just log in and navigate in Improve section to: International => Translations

Select the following positions in drop-down menus and click Modify button:

  • Type of translation: Email Translations.
  • Select the type of email content: Body.
  • Select your theme: Core (no theme selected).
  • Select your language: Choose the required language (in our case it’s English).

Step II - Edit Installed modules translations

You also want to edit the Installed modules translations to change text and remove the “Powered by Prestashop” option. In Prestashop 1.6, you need to edit Module email template and Core email template. For example, click ‘Core Emails’ to open and select ‘order_conf’ from the list in order to edit the Order Confirmation Email.

Final, remove the text and type in anything that you would like to add to the template. Make sure you edit both the HTML version and the Text version for any Prestashop email templates.
