Hi all,
I installed WB yesterday and started to play with it. It seem realy cool!

I also have a SMF forum, and I would like to link from the WB site to the SMF forum just like it is done on this site. I managed to do that, by adding a new page with an external link.

Now I wonder which template that is used here on WB, because the colors and style fit so well with the SMF layout. I would really like to have the same template on my site. Could that be possible?

Hello!

The template that is used on the WebsiteBaker(2).org WB installations is a custom template, that is not available anywhere (as far as I know). The SMF forum here is not integrated in the WB installations, only the header / footer is manually integrated in SMF template.

But (there's always a but) as the used SMF template (Babylon Theme) won't be available in future SMF versions (SMF2, just as community style) and anyway it will never fit to the "secret" :evil: upcoming template of websitebaker2.org (that is done when it's done). And: I don't think it's a good idea releasing the official template from the official site here due to forks and sites that claim to be the official one but aren't.

But you can always take the forum software and style you like best and fit the WB (or the forum style or both) that they fit quite well.

Hello,

everybody can copy over the HTML code of an existing site together with the CSS and images in order to create a WB template in less than half an hour. Only tricky thing is to adapt the menu calls to simulate the menu styles of the original site. Unfortunatelly there is not much you can do about.

There are a lot of people out there exatly doing this, without giving a s*** on the copyright notices set by the original author. It is up to the author of the original site to take actions if he gets aware that someone has copied his site without taking care about the copyright notices.

Hello!

Of course anybody can copy the whole template, but that is absolutely nothing we should encourage people to do with providing a download of the template... If anybody is really interested in the template he should contact the board... We have a valid "legal notice" page in footer. But I doubt the board will give anybody the template...
Btw: The one that holds the template rights is the e.V., not Ryan anymore.

Yours Michael

Hello,

it was not my intention to encourgage people to copy existing designs without giving a s*** to the license terms. I simply wanted to point out that "hidding" a template will not "prevent" clones of once published in the WWW.
