N1kko:
Hi guys,

I have designed a template for WB and wanted to make it a paid commercial template, just wanted to ask how I go about this before I post?

Thanks
Nick

Ruud:
WebsiteBaker does not offer a store to sell your templates.
So you could sell your template through one of the standard "template shops" like ThemeForest
You can "advertise" in the Commercial WB related offers forum area.

N1kko:
Thanks Ruud,

Just need to check what I need to keep intact in the info.php file regarding the License?

Ruud:
This is a tricky one (I see a discussion coming up here).

Other "big players" in the CMS world are discussing about this for years and years.
A real answer is very hard to find.

The answer I like the most is:

The .php files in a template that are using CMS functions should be licensed GPL, since they are derivative works of the GPL licensed CMS.
The css and artwork can have a different license.

GNU/GPL itself talks about templates being a special case. See: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#WMS

So... Some kind of dual license statement would be the answer..

Ps. this is my personal view. Do not see this as an official statement of WebsiteBaker Org. e.V.

Stefek:
N1kko,

you probably could hook up with others who already have a template shop, as www.combosa.com

There are more designers who offer commercial (for sell) templates for WB.

Just get in touch with them directly. That is be what I would suggest.

Kind regards,
Stefek
