Change the Footer in Your WordPress Admin Panel
There are times when you want others to know that you designed the specific WordPress theme. So you would put a credential link in the WordPress footer. But if you want to take it even further, you can modify the WordPress Admin panel footer. This simple hack is an extra perk that theme designers can add for their clients or in their free themes (like many plugin authors do).
To accomplish this trick, simply open your theme’s functions.php file and paste the following code:
function remove_footer_admin () {
echo 'Fueled by <a href="http://www.wordpress.org" target="_blank">WordPress</a> | Designed by <a href="http://www.uzzz.net" target="_blank">Uzzz Productions</a> | WordPress Tutorials: <a href="http://www.wpbeginner.com" target="_blank">WPBeginner</a></p>';
}add_filter('admin_footer_text', 'remove_footer_admin');
It is assumed that you know to paste these codes within the php tags. We always leave credit for WordPress, no matter how customize our admin panel is it wasn’t possible without WordPress. You should follow the same practice to increase awareness about WordPress.
Here is how the end result would look like:

Great tutorial, will use
Unfortunately you neglected to mention to hook it to the “admin_footer_text” filter. This is what’s missing:
add_filter('admin_footer_text', 'remove_footer_admin');Thanks for notifying us. We are really sorry, this mistake was on our end.
This rocks my socks, I love being able to edit the WP admin screen. Will there be tutorials here soon for WP 3.0?
