Ok so there are some mistakes in the vB agreement...

[high]* MarcoH64 wonders if it is the weather that makes members want to argue about everything the last few days.[/high]

forumhome_moderator is just 1 single line wich displays an adminname, a comma and a link to it's profile.

A possibility to replace this would be with a dropdownlist code (wich is totally different from the normal template.)


Look, it are just examples but this little fact of the agreement is just wrong...

Thanks.

[high]* flup is tired from this discussion, don't feel like to make the mod anymore :P[/high]

A single line (even if that makes up a whole template) will not be considered as a significant part of the code.

I rest my case, gonna make that freakin' mod now

Sorry, we had this rule at vBT too. There's nothing wrong if you put the whole template for replacing in a template mod, because that's necessary. However, distributing whole templates for other purposes is not allowed. It's just the way it is with the license agreement. I know, it seems unfair, but we can't break what the licence agreement says. (This is the impression I was under...)

So what your saying is, is that they COULD have given me the templates I needed to do my mod? (As long as it was for a template mod..)

Not sure how you made that connection...

This sentence made the connection for me

Then no, you cannot transfer that meaning.

Parts of templates can be made available if they have to be replaced or edited. If a whole template has to be replaced, I'd advise to just say "replace the content of the template FORUMHOME with:".

What you were asking for goes under other purposes, so giving you the template data isn't allowed.


I also don't think it's such a big deal. We stated that we couldn't give you the template data, because of the license agreement and we offered you alternatives to get to that data in an uncomplicated way.
