Hi,
Are we allowed to remove the "Your Forums - powered by vBulletin" in the title?

Thanks

No. You are not allowed to remove "powered by vBulletin" neither from the title nor from the footer, unless you purchase "Branding Free Option" from the vBulletin.com's member area (which at the moment costs $120).

Daniel · #3 10-10-2005, 01:14 AM

$120 to take their name off something, they sure do know how to steal money. Thanks though.

akanevsky · #4 10-10-2005, 01:17 AM

No problem, and yes I do agree with you, $120 is a bit too much for that.

Carl Anderson · #5 10-10-2005, 01:21 AM

Yes you can take it out of the tittle but $120 to get it off the footer...

Here is how right from vb site.......

here's a question:

Are you alowed to take of the version # from the footer, but leave the " Powered by: vBulletin" bit intact?

markbolyard · #7 10-10-2005, 01:28 AM

Yes, I believe you can remove the version number as well. I am sure this is verifiable on vbulletin.com.

Official:
Yes you can remove the 'Powered by vBulletin' from the title.
Yes you can remove the version number from the footer.

Daniel · #9 10-11-2005, 01:23 AM

Thanks - so we can remove anything that says "vBulletin" except the footer?

Emmy2 · #10 10-11-2005, 08:05 PM

can we change the display in the footer?

Like, instead of Powered by vBulletin, it's Powered by v B u l l e t i n

the reaon I ask is we know that hackers sometimes use search engines to find forums to hack and searching on "powered by vbulletin" gives them a list of potential targets. So, can we put some extra spaces there to deter that kind of thing?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
