As you know, Question2Answer is another CMS for QA forums, like WordPress. You get source files and an admin panel. You cannot change Powered by Question2Answer from the admin panel.
Go to qa-theme-base.php and edit with any notepad. Search Question2Answer or Powered using CTR F . Change the text and URL. Also, you can find the function html() to edit.
You will be able to change credits in the base file.

After changed footer credits, do not forget to save file qa-theme.php.
Now, we are going to change a Question2Answer theme base file .
1. Go back in qa folder.
2. Now, open qa-include folder and find qa-theme-base.php
3. Find the credits and change according to your need.
In this way, you can change credits from Question2Answer source files.
If you can't find the "Powered by Question2Answer" text in your theme files, check qa-include/qa-theme-base.php and search for attribution() or Question2Answer.
In many Q2A versions, the footer credit is generated through the attribution function rather than plain text. You can modify or override this function in your custom theme to change or remove the footer credit.
Always back up the file before making changes.
