Blasted copyright.

I'm working on a skin for my board, and I've got one really irksome problem. I can't find the dang copyright for vbIndex. It appears on the pages as it should, but it appears below a border I have placed around all my content. This means it is seperated by about ten pixels of space from the Jelsoft copyright. I want the vbIndex copyright inline with the Jelsoft copyright, so I have three nice, neat lines in one place, not two lines, thick border, out-of-place copyright.

I've searched the phrases, searched the templates, and scanned the index.php file, but I can't find where the copyright is generated! How do I move it?

in vbindex.php find:

$vbphrase['copyright'] = construct_phrase($vbphrase['vbi_copyright'], $vboptions['templateversion'], $vbindex['version']);

I did a search in my vbindex file, and I couldn't find that string, nor any instance of 'vbi_copyright' or '$vboptions['templateversion']'. I may have already removed it.

The contents of the [high]vbi_copyright[/high] phrase:

vBulletin Copyright &copy; MM - MMIV Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.<br />
vBindex Copyright &copy; MMII - MMIV Winter Systems.

The part that you are looking to move is:

<br />vBindex Copyright &copy; MMII - MMIV Winter Systems.

If you remove the [high]<br />[/high] tag your vBindex copyright will be inline with the Jelsoft copyright

That's the thing though, my vbi_copyright phrase consists entirly of

moments later...

I just deleted the phrase vbi_copyright from my database. However, the copyright is still being displayed at the very bottom of the page, as shown above.

Edit: Just want to say thanks for the help. I tend to come off as being short and a bit brisk. I don't intend to be, I'm just a bit ticked at this problem.

You might want to check your main vBulletin footer as well, as that may be the actual cause of the problem, not the phrase above

No luck with that either. I didn't want to resort to a sloppy hack such as this, but... I fixed the problem by adding, to the very bottom of my vbindex_footer template, an open-ended div with its display property set to none. It fixes the problem, but doesn't make me feel warm and fuzzy.
