Title: remove hardcoded hyperlink Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # remove hardcoded hyperlink * [drsmith](https://wordpress.org/support/users/drsmith/) * (@drsmith) * [21 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/remove-hardcoded-hyperlink/) * I’m trying to make this logo point to nerdfilter.com but I cant find where to change it. I changed the logo in the .css file but I cant find where its hyperlink properties are. I dont want to confuse users by sending them offsite.

Did you look in wp-login.php? * Thread Starter [drsmith](https://wordpress.org/support/users/drsmith/) * (@drsmith) * [21 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/remove-hardcoded-hyperlink/#post-111392) * Yeah, wordpress.org doesnt exist in that file. I think there’s a variable I need to change or disable generating that wordpress.com hyperlink. I also get it when posting or any admin page. * Thread Starter [drsmith](https://wordpress.org/support/users/drsmith/) * (@drsmith) * [21 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/remove-hardcoded-hyperlink/#post-111394) * I found a line that looks like it could be it a while ago and replace it with:

[Nerdfilter](http://nerdfilter.com/)

Still, same results. * Moderator [James Huff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macmanx/) * (@macmanx) * [21 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/remove-hardcoded-hyperlink/#post-111395) * Sorry, edited my above post after you posted.

Open the wp-login.php file. Look at lines 231-235. `

That line has been replaced with the nerdfilter. com line I posted above. Am I missing something obvious?

I mean, this has to be somewhere. I checked admin header, no luck. * Moderator [James Huff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macmanx/) * (@macmanx) * [21 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/remove-hardcoded-hyperlink/#post-111441) * You could make it into an image. Take a screenshot and then crop it. * Moderator [James Huff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macmanx/) * (@macmanx) * [21 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/remove-hardcoded-hyperlink/#post-111509) * Ok, drsmith, please read this slowly. The field that you are referring to is known to both the php files and the css as “h1” Basically, it’s a joint effort to display the content. The CSS says what h1 is, and the php file says what to do with it. You have mentioned that wp-login.php file contains the following code: `

Nerdfilter

This places h1 in the required spot and then writes “Nerdfilter” over it. What you need to do, is open up wp-login. php and replace

Nerdfilter

with

Nerdfilter

. This will again place the word “Nerdfilter” over h1, but the word will now be linked to your site. It works for me, please try it. * Thread Starter [drsmith](https://wordpress.org/support/users/drsmith/) * (@drsmith) * [21 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/remove-hardcoded-hyperlink/#post-111549) * Oh christ, I’ve been uploading to the wp-admin directory the whole time and had two wp-login.php pages. FWIW the string “

Nerdfilter

” never was used, I just didn’t use backticks to protect the code on this forum. Thanks for the help guys. Sorry for the silly ftp mistake. Now onto more fun stuff! How about this? [http://www.everythingisnt.com/archives/screenshot.JPG](http://www.everythingisnt.com/archives/screenshot.JPG) I guess there’s an include or a template somewhere which generates the WordPress at the top, but have yet to find it. * Thread Starter [drsmith](https://wordpress.org/support/users/drsmith/) * (@drsmith) * [21 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/remove-hardcoded-hyperlink/#post-111657) * Fixed this.
