   I want to remove the return to site link in the WordPress Login screen. I believe that can be done with an action or filter, but I have not been successful yet. Ideas?

   NB Checking code here at the moment: http://lab.yukei.net/wp-code/nav.html?wp-includes/default-filters.php.source.html

   Seems that there is one hook for login_footer, but that there is no real action that ads the footer link leading back to the home page. I found the code here on line 133 of wp-login.php:

   function login_footer($input_id = '') {
   	?>
   	<p id="backtoblog"><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/" title="<?php esc_attr_e('Are you lost?') ?>"><?php printf(__('← Back to %s'), get_bloginfo('title', 'display' )); ?></a></p>
   	</div>
   
   <?php if ( !empty($input_id) ) : ?>
   <script type="text/javascript">
   try{document.getElementById('<?php echo $input_id; ?>').focus();}catch(e){}
   if(typeof wpOnload=='function')wpOnload();
   </script>
   <?php endif; ?>
   
   <?php do_action('login_footer'); ?>

   Main snippet I do not want to load and will probably hide with CSS as I do not see another way is:
   

   <p id="backtoblog"><a>/" title="<?php esc_attr_e('Are you lost?') ?>"><?php printf(__('← Back to %s'), get_bloginfo('title', 'display' )); ?></a></p>

   Added CSS to my Custom Login Plugin Custom CSS box:
   

   .login #nav a, .login #backtoblog a {color:white !important;}
   .login #nav a:hover, .login #backtoblog a:hover {color:white !important;}

   This until I find a way to not load or replace the earlier mentioned back home link on the login screen

   Hi, I want to remove the "back to" link as well, but I don't want to use the custom Login plugin. Can you tell me what .css file I should put those two styles in?

   I couldn't hide the "Back To" link without also hiding the "Lost Your Password" link.

   Never edit WordPress core files!

    Okey doke, I edited my post that had my "resolution".

    But after hours of research, I couldn't get it done any other way. I did save the original as a backup, in case it didn't work or broke something. But everything checked out smoothly.

    I read about why core files should never be edited, and I appreciate your warning. I have saved the original file, and when I need to upgrade WP, I will re-upload it. Thanks.
