I am using the "beamerthemesplit" template of the Beamer LaTeX package. This templates includes the author's name and the title of the presentation in the footer of all pages. Is anyone aware of any way to suppress this footer?

I got rid of the default footer, and inserted page numbers instead using the following commands.

%gets rid of bottom navigation bars
\setbeamertemplate{footline}[page number]

%gets rid of navigation symbols
\setbeamertemplate{navigation symbols}{}
