How to remove branding from Xenforo 2.1.0 ?

[DarKMaSk 34]

I am not talking about any template. I am talking about Xenforo default branding i.e, 'Forum Software Made by Xenforo', this branding. I want to remove it. I searched the net, but nothing found useful. Can anyone help please?

I would presume you can use CSS to just hide it I don't have a Xenforo board to test on so if you PM me your board URL I can take a look at it.

Go to /src/ folder and open the file XF.php file with notepad ++ and click Ctrl+F then find below code

Code:

return '<span class="u-concealed" dir="ltr">Forum software by XenForo™ <span class="copyright">©2010-2017 XenForo Ltd.</span></span>';

I have already seen this solution but it is not working. In XF 2.1.0 in '/src/XF.php', there is no such line or code. At line 893 it is calling a function named 'getCopyrightHtml()'. But I could not find where this function has been defined, though I have not searched every file in there.

I have bypassed the problem by another way but could not found the 'Copyright by Xenforo' - this line.

Where can I find this language file?

There is no file in 'library' folder. My Xenforo version is 2.1.0. In version 1.x, the Xenforo folder was in the 'library' folder. Lot has been changed from version 2.0. Though I have found an 'Application.php' file in the '/src/Legacy' folder but that doesn't contain the code you have mentioned. Also, the whole Xenforo script doesn't have any 'footer.php', atleast I couldn't find any such file.

Please see my above reply. There are only 2 (two) files in 'library' folder, one is .htaccess file and another is an 'index.html' file, that's all.

Actually I haven't found the copyright code yet. But I have changed the 'Forum software made by Xenforo', this line and I have changed the copyright portion of the theme I used, though it was also took some time to figure out.

Changing the line, 'Forum software made by Xenforo' is easy. Enter the ACP. Then go to Setup > Options > Basic board information > Board Meta Description and change the line. The metadata will be changed automatically.

Now, I have used Vertiforo theme. I changed the copyright portion in the source .xml file before uploading. If you open the .xml (I use Dreamweaver to open .xml files) file, you will find the 'Footer' portion from line 580 to 587. You will understand what to change there. That's all.

But I am still looking for the original Xenforo copyright entry.
