REMOVING ALFRESCO LOGOS AND BANNERS FOR CUSTOMIZATION

[blueflame....@gmail.com]

Good day Guys,

How do I remove all Alfresco Logos and Banners on the Alfresco community application especially the one the bottom of the dashboard that has a logo and says "Alfresco community edition is supplied for free with no support and all that"?

Awaiting your responses.

​You can try the below steps :

1) Create a new file (hidefooter-extension.xml) under tomcat/webapps/share/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/site-data/extension

<extension>
   <modules>
      <module>
         <id>Hide Footer</id>
         <auto-deploy>true</auto-deploy>
         <components>
            <component>
               <region-id>footer</region-id>
               <source-id>global</source-id>
               <scope>global</scope>
               <sub-components>
                 <sub-component id="default">
                   <evaluations>
                     <evaluation id="global.footer">
                        <render>false</render>
                     </evaluation>
                   </evaluations>
                 </sub-component>
               </sub-components>
            </component>
         </components>
      </module>
   </modules>
</extension>

2) Give your server a restart and navigate to modules deployment page [http://localhost:8080/share/page/modules/deploy] 

3) Add 'Hide Footer' to Deployed modules section and click on Apply changes

Check out the magic ;)

*** You should place all your customized extension under tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/web-extension/site-data/extension folder [you would have to create the folder site-data/extension which by default is not present]

Hope so that helps!!!

Hello Ejike,

The second option would be to hide it from display using CSS by adding "display:none" as shown in below screenshot

Hello Ejike,

The steps mentioned by me were for the Alfresco Share client not for Alfresco Explorer.

For Alfresco Explorer you would have to change this file PageTag.java

Hello Ejike,

PageTag.java is a java class and you will have to download the Alfresco SDK, modify the class, compile it by building an amp. Apply this amp on to your alfresco.war file. Refer this blog.

The second easiest option would be to hide the section using CSS (as highlighted in earlier mail).

Do you really use Alfresco Explorer still ? 🤔

Sujay Pillai

[BlueFlame Engineering]

Hi Sujay,

Yes i still do for Alfresco 4.2 even though i heard the latest Alfresco version only comes with share. 

why is that? and why no more workflow?

How do you now implement workflow on alfresco?

Hello Ejike,

The changes what you do through browser developer console will not be permanent, its temporary for the page loaded.

You will have to pick up the corresponding CSS file in the war file and do the changes, so that it's served directly from webserver.

Yes the Alfresco explorer have been removed from 5.0.b. Its not that the workflow have been removed, just that they moved from jBPM to Activiti (the backend workflow engine)

Hi Sujay,

Thanks for your response. Kindly direct me to which of the folders I can find the appropriate CSS file in the WAR file.

It's quite disappointing that Alfresco explorer has been removed, it looks much more professional than Alfresco share in my own opinion and how do users like myself who are used to Explorer get to use workflow in share? Care to explain?

Look forward to your response.
