Hello!

I have a problem. I’m setting up my new blog, and I plan to place ads. Earn money etc.

So here comes the question – Can I use DW Minion theme for free on my site, and modify it for my own purposes, Translate it to my native language. Change some CSS etc. ? And still use it to earn money, place some ads without any problems?

I’m only asking, because I have to be sure that this is legal. GPLv2 license is not clear for me.

I don’t know exacly what I can do, and what I can’t.

This is our theme and it is for free. yes, you can modify it for your own purposes, Translate it to your native language. Change some CSS etc. ? And still use it to earn money, place some ads without any problems.

However, there is one thing you need to take note. You can use our theme to customize as you wish, however you do not allow changing our theme to sell on anywhere.

Hope this helps !
Regards,
Dominic

Great job with the themes, they are all fantastic. And thanks for allowing us to modify it -it’s absolutely awesome!
I understand how it is not possible to modify your theme and resell it. What about selling child themes for Minion?

The answer is: “YES”. This is powerful of GPL License, and we are following it.
