Hi,
I'm using version 2.0.5 of Portal Simple and for security reasons, I would remove or hide the version number in the copyright at the bottom of the forum (in SMF there is even a mod to do that).
How can I do without removing the copyright?
Thanks, ;)
Note: Sorry for my poor english :(

Security reasons of what? Removing the version number will do nothing security-wise, considering most attackers are bots that use auto-scripts on EVERY website regardless of version until one clicks.

Ok, that's true but as you say "most attackers" but not "all".
I prefer that nobody knows what version I have installed in order that they could not take advantage of any vulnerability.
On the other hand, I do not believe that this affect in any way Simple Portal.
Thank you anyhow for your opinion. :)

I would strongly suggest that you upgrade to SimplePortal 2.3, that would be the best way to avoid security issues. ;)
If you really don't want to upgrade, then post your SPortal1-1.php file and I can remove the version number for you.

Sorry, I have modified and personalized too much the portal to change it now...
¡Thank you very much, you are very nice! but too late :-[ I've found and rectified it myself.
Once again, thanks for your amiability. ;)
