document-classesheader-footer
I'm a TeX newbie, and I try to edit a template tex class file, but I can't find where the header section is defined. It looks like this:
but I want to remove it completely and edit the header from the .tex file. I was able to clear the footnote although.
Can someone inform me if removing it is at least possible, because I spent more time trying to removing it than I would like to admit.
If I understand correctly, you want a bibliography with the title "references", formatted as if it were a section head, but not added to running heads (or, given the method you are using, the table of contents).
In that case, first define a new bibliography heading style, thus:
\defbibheading{myheading}[References]{%
\section*{#1}}
And then use that as the heading option to the bibliography:
\printbibliography[heading=myheading]
If you want to add this to the table of contents, but not to the page headers, add
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{#1}
within your heading definition.
Here's a small fix of the .cls file by patching \maketitle to use a \titlepagestyle which is itself some wrapper command which can be redefined to use some other pagestyle. It uses fancy by default.
Now the header and footer settings are applied for the title page (if this is really needed at all...)

As ChristianHupfer noted, this is probably what's responsible:
Substituting
would work. BUT the only reason to use this class is to conform with conference/journal submission/publication requirements. If you are submitting/publishing with a conference/journal, you ought NOT change the class. If not, it would be better to use a more flexible class.
