Split off this discussion and made its own topic.

Correct me if im wrong.
That's debatable. They do after all, have the copyright in the footer when it is installed, and in the themes.
To me, this is usually a sign that they want it to be there.
Flarum, it appears, does not even have it in the footer, which is unusual, to say the least.

wait WordPress needs the footer?
For the most part, they request it be left in.
Most custom theme makers require their copyright to be visible.

It is all about what type of license the said software implies. If they do not care about you removing their copyright notices, go ahead and remove them, but if you want to give them credits, leave them there.
To add to this:
If the software license says you need to keep the copyright, then you need to be sure to keep it and have it show how they have it. Examples of this are SMF, ElkArte, phpBB, WordPress and others.

9 times out of 10, it does.
So, better to err on the side of caution.

You're right about your forum having no such requirements however, being free and open source, so I'm sure @Burke Knight got it mixed up with another forum software.
Was just being cautious. One never knows about software they stay far away from until they ask. LOL

What forum software are you using now?
You do realize, you need to have the forum software's copyright in the footer of the forum.
Otherwise, you are violating their policy, as well is iFastNet's when it comes to nulled scripts. (Copyright removal counts as nulled.)

I've seen a lot of debates recently about the average age of people running websites, and I'd like to get some actual numbers from here.
Please note: I can't see what you voted, and I'm only interested in broad data. There are parallel polls with the same groupings over on other forum sites and I'll share the overall results when I'm done. I suspect I know what the outcome would be, but I'm curious. -
If you are talking about the MOFH admin panel, it works for me.
If meaning another cPanel, you'll have to give a little more info on the issue.

is it just me or has my post been deleted? @Burke Knight@Chronos
Yes, it was.
From now on, please follow the rules and refrain from plugging your MOFH in support topics. There is a board for that, and support boards are not it.

You can find out the IP address of a server by opening a command prompt on your pc and typing:

Where do you find the IP address of the server? What to list for the domain? Thanks so much! 🙂 -Anna
You can setup custom nameservers, the IP addresses will be the IP addresses of the nameservers provided in your Account Information e-mail.
You can find out the IP address of a server by opening a command prompt on your pc and typing:
ping <servername>
So if your nameservers were ns1.byethost.org and ns2.byethost.org
ping ns1.byethost.org
PING ns1.byethost.org (31.22.4.21) 56(84) bytes of data.
This shows that ns1.byethost.org has an IP address of 31.22.4.21
If you have setup custom nameservers in your domain registrar control panel please raise a support ticket with us to ensure your DNS configuration is all working correctly.
If you require any assistance on configuring your own custom nameservers please raise a support ticket.

Byet.net is only a forum.
If asking about using a proxy for the hosting, you'd be better off asking at support.

That might be why it is working again.
They must have renewed the certificate.

For some reason, some people were given a slightly different URL for the panel. I found this to not work very well anymore.
https://panel.myownfreehost.net:2087/
That's why said something happened to the URL.

It seems that something happened to the MOFH panel URL.
To get to the MOFH admin panel, you need to make sure to just go to:

Goes to show you that they don't really make sure of their security.
Just think what else they may not be admitting to...

GoDaddy: Hackers stole source code, installed malware in multi-year breach
Web hosting giant GoDaddy says it suffered a breach where unknown attackers have stolen source code and installed malware on its servers after breaching its cPanel shared hosting environment in a multi-year attack.
While GoDaddy discovered the security breach in early December 2022 following customer reports that their sites were being used to redirect to random domains, the attackers had access to the company's network for multiple years.
"Based on our investigation, we believe these incidents are part of a multi-year campaign by a sophisticated threat actor group that, among other things, installed malware on our systems and obtained pieces of code related to some services within GoDaddy," the hosting firm said in an SEC filing.
The company says that previous breaches disclosed in November 2021 and March 2020 are also linked to this multi-year campaign.
The November 2021 incident led to a data breach affecting 1.2 million Managed WordPress customers after attackers breached GoDaddy's WordPress hosting environment using a compromised password.
They gained access to the email addresses of all impacted customers, their WordPress Admin passwords, sFTP and database credentials, and SSL private keys of a subset of active clients.
After the March 2020 breach, GoDaddy alerted 28,000 customers that an attacker used their web hosting account credentials in October 2019 to connect to their hosting account via SSH.
GoDaddy is now working with external cybersecurity forensics experts and law enforcement agencies worldwide as part of an ongoing investigation into the root cause of the breach.
Links to attacks targeting other hosting companies
GoDaddy says it also found additional evidence linking the threat actors to a broader campaign targeting other hosting companies worldwide over the years.
"We have evidence, and law enforcement has confirmed, that this incident was carried out by a sophisticated and organized group targeting hosting services like GoDaddy," the hosting company said in a statement.
"According to information we have received, their apparent goal is to infect websites and servers with malware for phishing campaigns, malware distribution and other malicious activities."
GoDaddy is one of the largest domain registrars, and it also provides hosting services to over 20 million customers worldwide.

That was most likely shared so people could add it if they choose, to help promote it.
However, they really would have to shrink it down.... A lot... 🤣
