... obviously inserting the correct copyright year in the place marked.

So if i wanted to change it to


vBulletin, Copyright ©2006

I couldn't?

Sorry. I didn't see the date of posting.

I supposed it's recent one.

Please don't reply to discussions that have months ago ended.

When someone with a branding free license download vB from the Members Area, the copyright info is automatically removed from their zip file. This was just added recently.

Just recently.

Branding does NOT permit to rebrand the software. You pay for permission to remove the copyright, you're not paying to own the copyright.

He linked to vBulletin.com & vBulletin.org.

But vBulletin.org doesn't own the copyright.

1. You'll have to remove the branding yourself, there's no switch and it's not automatic.
2. As long as that doesn't give the impression that it's a different software that shouldn't be a problem.

Dear sir,

I had purchased the brand free option and few questions about it:

1. Is there any easy way to activate 'brand free'? or it's trivial jobs to remove line by line? Modify installation script seems to be brand free but not all.
2. Can I use something like 'Enhanced by XXX' to replace the copyright declaration?

I'm appreciated if you can help me ASAP.
Thanks.

I wish I could change the copyright to "powered by magic and pixies" withoug paying extra money for branding free
