Boonex Branding Removal

How to remove this and the link that goes with it?

Riddled with links back to Boonex

A link to boonex.com appears to be each file called constants.inc.php

There is one in each flash app folder. for example flashmodulesglobalinc

constants.inc.php is the global one. There is also one in flashmodulesdesktopincconstants.inc.php for desktop, flashmodulesmp3incconstants.inc.php for the mp3 player ect.

Thank you Deano....

And again...

I can't find the links for those last two. So perhaps those are in the flash source.

Perhaps someone can enlighten us both?

You really must hate boonex lol just joking :)

Well he really does not want to know my take on this.

If this was my software i would charge thousands to allow complete branding removal.

My opinion is total removal of all branding is extreme. I see only one reason for it. And that reason would scare the hell out of me if this was my software.

Ha Ha and I have been clear on this many times I love Boonex obviously I have so much time invested in it.  But I don't want someone to walk right into what I spent so much time learning and pick it right up...

BRANDING is everything...and of course you made it clear you are joking and it could appear the other way.  I do however think BOONEX attempts to hide branding and when the branding does not change when you pay for it to go away, costs them dearly on multiple sales. SO MANY have expressed this exact sentiment!

Yes Deano has been very clear on this issue many times...

There is a difference between a branded product and the right to buy it as non-branded.  I am only trying to get what is offered.  

Look at it this way, if someone is looking to find out what software you are using that person is familiar with what can and can't be done, most of the time all you have to do is view the page source and with some digging you can tell what the site is running on.

There are some options, you can encrypt the source code that makes it very  difficult for a human to read but it's just to much effort. You can't hide on the internet!.
But i do agree i never liked the modules/boonex directory name.

On a large site, you may have some that are working to help administer the site; you don't necessarily want them knowing the underlying framework.  I will admit that I will need to go read the licence again about un-branding.  However, that is what the licence grants, you buy a licence not so that crippled features will work but to un-brand the application.  Of course that usually is for what the public sees, not necessarily for the backend; but there are legitimate reasons for wanting to unbrand the backend as well.

Now, if the implications of removing all branding is so one can "steal" the software and release it as their own, then one would just rip the branding guts out and do it quietly, they wouldn't be posting on the application's forum.  So there are no implications of anything here.

Front End VS Back End branding or total branding removal are different. And the cost should be different.

Anyhow. The license does require attribution, so the markings in the source must remain. Hope you don't plan to remove those as well as that would be a violation of the license.

But there is a trust thing to. If you do not trust someone not to steal your ideas, then you don't let them in the admin section anyway.

I too was worried about the branding boonex stuff but not anymore, if someone asks me what i am using i just tell them boonex.com and it doesn't take very long before they complain that you have to spend much money and how difficult it is to get something done lol.

 LOL. That should work.

Deano the more successful your site becomes the more people who will try to find out what you are doing or how you are doing it.  But what you said is exactly what I am talking about you say just don't let them in the admin section EXACTLY right and that is the limiting factor of expansion...

I already removed entire boonex references in admin panel, css selector, flash and html links by editing the database and source code. Having no issues so far. Took me 1 day, but honestly I payed for removal of all references. No one will know im using a boonex software now and even more since im a CSS3 nerd and the overall look changed 360 degrees lol.

 Please share my friend, please!!!  Pm me.

Its not about trying to steal, removal of branding means total removal of ALL branding.  I do not wish to make it easy for competitors.  Yes, they can use another script and implement whatever it is that Im attempting to accomplish, but that is exactly how they must do so, find something else and good luck with it!

I already shared it with you guys weeks ago. Its called "Tutorial remove boonex references" or something. Do a forum search and you might find it. It is really advanced stuff though and only 1 mistake renders your site useless.

Let's make this perfectly clear nobody is trying to post on a forum how to remove branding and trying to steal anything.  What I think quite a few people want is to know somebody off the street who is fairly bright can't walk into a what could be a winning gig.  Oh I see the platform you are using and thanks I can take this from here...

It takes a great deal of time and effort to get this stuff done and to just hand it to a person through simple branding is not what I am after.  I am only trying to get what should be obvious a non branded site.  There must be at least 100 tweaks and turns and surprise branding throughout the site and it takes quite a bit of energy to deal with what should be a given when a non branded license is purchased. This is not about theft it is about getting what is offered.  If it is to be non branded then it is non-branded but the way this is done here is yes BUT go find all the hidden secrete files that all point back to Dolphin in some kind of way like the above examples...  

Well, what you pay for thats what you get. Dolphin is cheap for a reason lol. Neverless better than nothing. Now with the references removed Im thinking of making a free mod some time that does the job.

The default boonex links are not the real thing. They are luring customers ok but Boonex true target is web designers and developers and they will always find out and how? They make it easy for them by giving css selectors and others things very specific names. Google them and there you go, boonex

Those guys at http://stackoverflow.com/ helped me alot destroying dolphins  hidden links and references in the code. Im glad.

 Hey wait, I think you misunderstood where I was coming from.  Im with you on this topic, 1 billion percent!!

 Yes I understand but when anyone leads with I am not trying to steal or this is not about stealing it can imply that others might have that in mind.  I think we are most people that is on the same page... 

Csampson, have you had any luck with removing all of that boonex BLOAT?

ANDREW, can you have your guys to make an UNBRANDED version of your software.  Im trying to protect my projects, and its only fair that as a paying  a customer, I/we should be afforded to do so, without having to go through the hassle of tracking down all this boonex stuff.  Please man, cause this is killing me.

You guys have been doing a great job with getting the bugs taken care of, and this is pretty much my only complaint.  Again, unbranded means TOTALLY UNBRANDED as in 1 gallon means 1 gallon, not half or quarter of a gallon, but a whole total gallon.

Csampson hit it on the head
