Remove "live from prestashop addons!" advertisements

To successfully remove theme adverts from this back office section of PrestaShop we must alter admin panel theme file. File that we must alter is located in your admin panel directory: /adminxxx/themes/default/template/controllers/themes/helpers/options/options.tpl. Please open this file. At the end of it you can find code like:

{block name="after"}
	<div class="panel clearfix" id="prestastore-content"></div>
	<script type="text/javascript">
		$.ajax({
			type: 'POST',
			headers: { "cache-control": "no-cache" },
			url: 'ajax-tab.php?rand=' + new Date().getTime(),
			async: true,
			cache: false,
			dataType : "html",
			data: {
				tab: 'AdminThemes',
				token: '{$token|escape:'html':'UTF-8'}',
				ajax: '1',
				action:'getAddonsThemes',
				page:'themes'
			},
			success: function(htmlData) {
				$("#prestastore-content").html("<h3><i class='icon-picture-o'></i> {l s='Live from PrestaShop Addons!'}</h3>"+htmlData);
			}
		});

		// These variable will move the form to another location
		var formToMove = "appearance";
		var formDestination = "js_theme_form_container";
	</script>
{/block}
