Howdy again. I have a question about the instructure logo at the bottom of the screen. Where it says powered by instructure open source LMS. What are the "regulations" regarding this part of the page? Can I move it around if I need. Hide it on certain pages if needed? Is this allowed with the licensing?

Thanks!

Hello James,
 
The footer image is specified in the page - app/views/layouts/application.html.erb ()
In this file, Line number from 195 to 209 you can see the code part. The image name is "foorter_logo.png". If you change the image here, it will affect in all the pages inside canvas, including login page.
Or, if you want to replace the image with your image, you can do it by changing the image in public/images/foorter_logo.png

James,

The license is AGPL 3, and does not include a clause about keeping any attributions or logos in place, so you can move it or remove it. Obviously we'd prefer that you keep it around somewhere but it's not required by the license.

Okay, thanks Zach. I am keeping it in the same place for 99% of the site, just hiding it when a student is taking a quiz. Thanks!
