If its not there it will be in your footer template.

I have already changed mine in a day advance to show as 2009 :D

Thank you Sir :D

just doing mine now ;)

Every year I ask myself, isn't there a variable that would update the year each year?

Like the phrase
vBulletin Version {1}<br />Copyright &copy;2000 - {2}, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.

And update any forms you use on your site that have the year in them. (Already done!)

erm, this is already included.
Powered by vBulletin&reg; Version {1}<br />Copyright &copy;2000 - {2}, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.

Unbelievable! ;)

I know. I want to use the same variable in my copyright.

(c) 1999- {2} 318ti.org.

I'm waiting until midnight as I've nothing better to do.:D

The idea of a variable to do it is good. I'll watch with interest

I don't mean to hijack the thread, but if someone could explain why this doesn't work.

I thought if I made my own phrase that I could insert it in the footer.

Since the phrase vbulletin_copyright = vBulletin&reg; v{1}, Copyright &copy;2000-{2}, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
I thought I could create a phrase forum_copyright = Copyright &copy;1999-{2}, my domain

Then somewhere below $vbphrase[powered_by_vbulletin] add $vbphrase[forum_copyright]

This way I wouldn't need to change it each year.
And to make it a full fledged mod, create a plugin that would add the phrase to the footer.

Its so easy to change once a year, why go through the hassel. Ill just be sure to remind you next year! :D
