[HOW-TO] Remove "Powered by vBulletin" from Your Page Titles

Any idea what I should look for in the templates?

Check your SHOWTHREAD template if it's only happening when viewing a thread. Near the top you should see a <title> </title> section. It should be in there.

Bingo!

That did it.

Now if I can trouble you one more time......

On the index page for the forums, I was able to edit the title and remove the hyphen.

I was also able to remove it for individual threads, thanks to you, just now.

The only place it remains, is when I enter each individual forum. Where would I edit that?

thanks again.

I guess FORUMDISPLAY

That did it.

Thank you very much guys. A rocket scientist, or programmer I am not..........however, I can follow directions pretty good

thanks again

Hey i think i have removed the powered by vbulletin from my title although it still displays up in google.

My site is www.Racingforum.com.au

It can take a while for Google to update its indexes.

I cant get mine off Official Game Talk

Well it looks like yours is already off.

In the PM I received, it said I still had the default... Except, I don't!!!! I took mine out months back, long before hearing about SEO - I just found it annoying

I am going to ask a stupid question but, where is phrase manager?

*** nevermind I found it ****

I have vBulletin 3.7.4 PL1 and I did what you wanted me to remove the "Powered by vBulletin" and it does not work. Still there:

I responded to your ticket. That is something else entirely.

Thank you.

1. Go to the Admin control Panel
2. On the left hand side you will see a section called "Languages & Phrases"
3. In there click on "Search in Phrases"
4. In the box at the top, paste in this: x_powered_by_vbulletin
5. Click on the circle that says "Phrase Variable Name Only"
6. On the next screen at the top you will see this phrase with an edit button to the right. click on the edit button for each one and in the large box at the bottom type in: {1}
7. Hit SAVE and then repeat for other phrases.


That is how you write a tutorial.

Thanks Tank... this was just the kind of step by step I needed!
