0 shihchiun Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 i don't know, but it's in there somewhere. you might want to see this though: We request you retain the full copyright notice below including the link to www.phpbb.com. This not only gives respect to the large amount of time given freely by the developers but also helps build interest, traffic and use of phpBB 2.0. If you cannot (for good reason) retain the full copyright we request you at least leave in place the Powered by phpBB 2.0.10 line, with phpBB linked to www.phpbb.com. If you refuse to include even this then support on our forums may be affected. The phpBB Group : 2002 anyway, why does it bother you that much?

0 Version3 Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 It's overall_footer.tpl However, if you are using a theme other than SubSilver you have to leave the copyrights on. Removal of the copyright notices show a disrespect for the people who spend thousands of hours programming this software. You receive no official phpbb support if it is removed.

0 Sammyinnit Posted October 17, 2004 Share Posted October 17, 2004 It does not matter which templates you are you are yousing, you MUST leave Powerd by phpBB and a link to phpBB.com intact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Version3 Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 Actually that is incorrect. You don't have to at all. It is just recommended that you do. The GPL allows you to remove links if permitted. They recommend that you do, and support on the phpbb forums may be affected, but you do not have to at all. You can even redistrubute it as something totally different, however you would have to release it for free and under the GPL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Suren Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 it would not be very nice :) but sometimes when you have lots of mods installed & i takes a lots of space you can shorten it by having it all in one line (like mod name and link to author) :yes: igen123 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
