Edit footer
How can to edit Elgg footer and to remove Powered by Elgg logo 
Open the file
elgg\views\default\page\elements\footer.php
And delete this code
echo elgg_view('output/url', array(
'href' => 'http://elgg.org',
'text' => "<img src=\"$powered_url\" alt=\"Powered by Elgg\" width=\"106\" height=\"15\" />",
'class' => '',
'is_trusted' => true,
));




Hi, can I edit Privacy, Terms and About page names?
Open the file
elgg\mod\externalpages\languages\en.php
And change this code
'expages:about' => "About",
'expages:terms' => "Terms",
'expages:privacy' => "Privacy",
With this (for example):
'expages:about' => "About us",
'expages:terms' => "Terms of service",
'expages:privacy' => "Confidential",
thanks
and "Report this"?
Open the file
elgg\mod\reportedcontent\languages\en.php
And change this code
'reportedcontent:this' => 'Report this',
With this (e.g.)
'reportedcontent:this' => 'Feedback',
In future, just searching for word 'Report this' and replace it with this tutorial: http://elgghacks.com/translate-elgg/
Is there a footer plugin that can add a simple line sentence without having to remove externalpages plugin links (privacy , terms, about.) I tried a few and they disable the externalpage plugin making the privacy, terms and about dissapear. The line sentence I would liketo add in the footer is a simple copyright sentence at the footer of my elgg but at the same time keeping the externalpage plugin links intact.
Try this Elgg plugin
In there, you can create the any static page/view and then add it to footer (check 'Show in footer')
Thanks You
