How do I remove the Powered by EasyDiscuss for Joomla! and the Powered by EasyBlog for Joomla! links
Hi Antonio Simmons,

I sincerely apologize that there's no settings available to remove the Copyright Link. The only way for you to remove the copyright linkback is by upgrading your license from Community to Pro and install the Pro version on your site. Upgrading is quick and easy; the price for an upgrade is USD20, for both EasyDiscuss and EasyBlog’s upgrade from Community to Pro total upgrade price is USD40.

Once you have upgraded your license, we will be more than happy to assist you with the installation/upgrade for your site’s installation.
You can upgrade by navigating to your dashboard at http://stackideas.com/dashboard and click on the upgrade button for your preferred license.

Please see this link to help point you in the right direction if you're looking to remove the "powered by".

**FYI that this will likely void ANY and ALL support from StackIdeas by removing the "powered by" link if you're running the community version: http://stackideas.com/forums/how-do-i-remove-footer-link

I believe that due to the type of open-source licensing that EasyBlog and these StackIdeas scripts fall under, once you've purchased the product you can modify the software as you see fit...which would include the ability to remove the footer should you desire (plz correct me if I'm wrong StackIdeas).

BUT remember the following is just an example and the location of the code may have changed by now, but it's usually easy to remove just a footer when you find the right line that displays the output code.

Reference info from the link I provided: Ah, if you purchased the Pro edition, the link back is removed automatically but you can remove it by removing the codes in the file /components/com_easydiscuss/controllers/controller.php at line 240,

Hey enigmarokker,

Thanks for sharing.

Yes, what you mentioned above is correct, as long as that is open source software and you modify the code by yourself without request for support regarding this, that will be fine.
