Hey Dylan,

If you want to move it below the forums
Open dbtech/vbnominate/hooks/forumhome_complete.php

At the bottom find

PHP Code:

        $ad_location['global_below_navbar'] = $ad_location['global_below_navbar'] . $vbnomnom_info_panel

replace it with

PHP Code:

        $template_hook['forumhome_below_forums'] = '<br /><br />' $template_hook['forumhome_below_forums'] . $vbnomnom_info_panel

Awesome, Thank you :) Works great!

Do you really need to fill the whole footer with 3 links and all that text? This is the only reason I will not have these mods on my sites or my clients sites. I don't mind a single link but 3 is a bit too much. Not to mention the Google Panda, Penguin updates frown on this.. Otherwise it looks like a decent mod..

One of the links is optional, you can disable it. Copyright footer links do not damage SEO in the google panda/penguin updates. They CAN damage the company who owns the links if they are placed on many undesirable sites. (This is what caused a lot of wordpress theme creators etc to be hurt by the updates). Fortunately our site is linked to by some of the largest communities on the web and has an extremely favourable SEO profile - there are no SEO issues with having links to our site.

The feedback is appreciated though, sorry that the two links vs 1 link is a dealbreaker for you, hopefully you'll re-examine the cost to benefit ratio again in future. The vast majority of people we've asked feel the extra features more than outweighs the few extra words at the very bottom of the page. Obviously I tend to agree with that position!

If you have any feedback on the SEO issues discussed etc feel free to PM me with further info and i'll look into it more, in case there is something i'm not aware of.

That is what I was talking about.. It damages you for posting the links so why do it? I guess before the more outgoing links you have may lower your link weight a bit but now the problem is really for those companies including the links on their products. This was my point. If it ticks off the buyer and also damages your seo then again, why do it?

It just gets to be too much. Say a client has 3 of your mods installed.. I understand you deserve something for having a lite version and the mods are great. I just really hate having all the links..a single for a mod is ok by me. This is just my opinion anyhow so no disrespect intended..

I think you should consider how awesome DBT mods must be if you're using so many that it affects your footer. ;) I guess they could only make 1 mod and then only have 1 footer entry... But yeah, then you'd be missing out on everything else they make.

I wouldn't think of it any more than if you installed 10 mods from 10 different authors that drop something in the footer. That many of them are DBT mods tells people that you use and trust them enough to use that many of their mods.

I'm not arguing the footer entries can get out of hand, not at all. =) Just that you can't blame DBT for writing so many excellent mods that you want to use them all. =)
