Yes it is open source you can make whether you like

Answer 1

...? Are you serious? Jeez! How did you get here? Wasn't it the Q2A footer perhaps? Look into the Directory and decide why so many people use this platform.

Answer 2

As I can see there is no restriction for removing the footer credit link from autor.

But why you do not want that your users create their own q2a site?

This is right. Q2A is fully open source so can be modified in any way.

Answer 3

Please let the link be as it was :D It's the way you do contribute to people who created very nice framework for you :D

there are better ways to contribute. Write a blogpost about on your homepage. Make a plugin. Submit a theme for q2a. Answer questions on main q2a site. :)

U must use advanced theme: http://www.question2answer.org/themes.php
And put into it such a function:

function attribution()
{
    $this->output('YOUR HTML HERE');
    qa_html_theme_base::attribution();
    $this->output('YOUR HTML HERE');
}

Answer 5

Try to edit qa-include/qa-theme-base.php and then find this line   
'<DIV CLASS="qa-attribution">',
                'Powered by <A HREF="http://www.question2answer.org/">Question2Answer</A>',

Change it as you want. But i request to keep it if you are using free version. :)
