Remove version from copyright [FINAL]
 
Extended version by vbshazz.com

Original hack by UbuntuniX, now extended / supported ONLY by vBShazz.com.

Okay so we all need security right?

Well if you want extra sucurity it helps to remove the vbulletin version,
this way if someone wants to use an exploit on you they won't know the version!

vBulletin version will be removed from the following pages:

Board Index
Admin Login
Mod Login
Archives

Note: This hack is not intended to show you how to remove vbulletin copyright!

First, login to admin control panel.
Under Styles & Templates tab go Style Manager | Select skin and click Edit Templates on dropdown menu | Edit Footer template
Find:
PHP Code:

<div align="center">
    <
div class="smallfont" align="center">
    <!-- Do 
not remove this copyright notice -->
    
$vbphrase[powered_by_vbulletin]
    <!-- Do 
not remove this copyright notice -->
    </
div

Replace with:
PHP Code:

<div align="center">
    <
div class="smallfont" align="center">
    <!-- Do 
not remove this copyright notice -->
    
Powered by vBulletin
<br />
        
Copyright 2000 2006Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
    <!-- Do 
not remove this copyright notice -->
    </
div


The version is now removed from the footer.
Now we'll remove it from the admin/mod login.

Edit includes/adminfunctions.php

Find:
PHP Code:

<b><a href="../<?php echo $vbulletin->options['forumhome']; ?>.php"><?php echo $vbulletin->options['bbtitle']; ?></a></b><br />
                <?php echo "vBulletin " $vbulletin->options['templateversion'] . $pagetitle"?><br />

Replace With:
PHP Code:

<b><a href="../<?php echo $vbulletin->options['forumhome']; ?>.php"><?php echo $vbulletin->options['bbtitle']; ?></a></b><br />
                <?php echo "vBulletin Admin Control Panel"?><br />

Open ./forum/archive/index.php file
Find:
PHP Code:

<div id="copyright\">$vbphrase[vbulletin_copyright]</div> 

Replace With:
PHP Code:

<div>vBShazz.com Copyright ?2006<br />Powered by vBulletin Copyright ?2000 2006Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.</div

^Change it to what you want

I don't think this would be a good idea. Besides it's kinda like altering the copyright notice without purchasing the branding fee option. If vBulletin finds out about this, then I think they'll sue your ass up! :p

I think this is against the TOS.

LandRover 08-19-2006 07:41 PM

You aware you can still view it from page's source:
Code:

<meta name="generator" content="vBulletin 3.xxxx" >

Sue him for what? How has he damaged them? At most they would revoke his license, which they will not - as Jelsoft allow version removal.

It is not a violation to remove the version. Relax. Though it is much easier to edit the phrase.

Neal-UK 08-19-2006 08:15 PM

I'm sure someone would visit vbulletin.com if they really wanted to hurt a site to see which version someone is running, just type vbulletin x.x.x in google and see sites of all versions.

Just a point, but nice mod though. At least you can do it, wish I could!
