Extremely possible, completely legal. Simply edit your skin's _main.php file and add or remove whatever you need to. When pinging b2evolution.net you won't be listed there without the linkback, and some forum players don't like to answer questions posed by people who remove the linkback, but that's not like the end of the world eh?

Hello EdB and thank you very much for your reply !

I'll have a link set up on my portfolio, where the project will be listed, and also in my ressources link list. I never feel comfortable with credits removals.

Is pinging b2evolution a necessary thing, or is it something than can be avoided ?

I have a "powered by" link on my site, but I still don't get listed when pinging b2evolution.net. Anything I can do about that? (http://yfinder.de/)

It's not necessary and can be avoided. On your Blog settings tab you select a blog then the advanced sub-tab and either turn off or don't turn on "ping b2evolution.net". Pinging b2evolution when you post gets you listed on the main page here under the recently updated blogs section so not having it isn't like the end of the world right?

wayfinder: That list is maintained by a couple of people, so it's a matter of when one of the admins there sees that you've pinged and checks your site out they'll 'approve' you and future posts will make the page.

Thanks again !

I've pinged about a hundred times already, how long does it usually take? Maybe I'm already in the list as a non-approved site because the first week or so I had no "powered by" link.

So I guess I can give up on this for good by now?

That's a shame. :(

wayfinder, I just looked into the blog which holds those entries. I cannot search for your domain there (as it seems) and could not find anything for "wayfinder" and only two other blogs for "driven".
Any chance your blog was named differently when you first pinged b2evolution.net?

Not as far as I know

Then someone with DB access on the admin blog (François) would be the only one able to help you with this, sorry.

I think I wrote him an email a while ago, must have somehow slipped through the cracks :(

just like this post :(

I also checked the blog that holds those lists and I couldn't find you either. If your blog was "barred" (because you didn't have the linkback) then only the person who barred you and François can actually see your ping and change it to accepted.

I know that doesn't really help you much, just explaining the reality of the situation.

Okay, thank you for your time

:'(

msr laplanque? s'il vous plaît?

I've tried email, I've tried the forums, what's left to try?

:(

:~(

Could you possibly stop bumping this thread.

If François hasn't replied to your email request then there's not a lot else we can do.

Sorry, I don't want to step on anyone's toes. I just thought maybe François reads this forum.
