    Hi.

    Having some trouble.

    Client would like to have the header/footer html changed on the login screen for the /system/ area.

    All I can find is to modify the

    function show_login_control_panel()

    in cp.display.php.

    Is there some other way I’m just not getting?

    It no problem overriding it once they’ve logged in using the show_full_control_panel_start hook.

    thanks
    m.

    I believe this would require a hack.

    Just as a warning, as well, as per our license, the footer of the control panel must remain intact.

    But we can remove the script executed bits, and add the clients logo to the header?

    Yes, you can. You just have to keep the copyright and logo data in the footer.  There is an extension to add your own sitename and logo to the header, I believe it is on our wiki Extensions page =) If not, then in the Extensions forum.

    Whatever else you do, you must not remove EL’s logo and copyright notice.

    thanks lisa.
    yeah, i already have an extension i made to do the inner cpanel once logged in.
    But before I hacked the core file, i wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing anything.
