We need to edit a file on the server. Open FileZilla and navigate to the server folder where your files are. (Of course, you can use whatever other method you normally use to edit server files). Using FileZilla was introduced in a previous tutorial. Find a folder called includes.

We need to edit this file. In FileZilla, we'll do that by downloading the file, editing it, then uploading it again. Here we've downloaded the footer.php file to our local machine.

As before, we can edit this file by right-clicking and choosing View / Edit. In order to remove the Joomla label from the bottom of the page, we need to delete the highlighted lines:

<div align="center">
 <?php echo $_VERSION->URL; ?>
</div>
