There are at least four spots where normal users could get in touch with Odoo branding in the backend:
• Odoo announcement top bar “Your Odoo is not supported. Upgrade or register your contract here.”
• company logo placeholder
• “powered by Odoo” in the left menu footer and in the login footer
• “Odoo support” user for instant messaging
To debrand your Odoo backend please follow these steps:
STEP #1 – change your company logo (let’s start from easy…)
Hover the big Odoo logo on the left side, click on “Edit company data” and give your company your own logo – this will replace the Odoo placeholder logo.
STEP#2 – remove “Powered by Odoo”
Open the view web.login_layout and comment out following lines:
<!-- <span class="oe_footer_seperator"> | </span> --> <!-- <a href="https://www.odoo.com" target="_blank">Powered by <span>Odoo</span></a> -->
Open the view web.menu_secondary and comment out following line:
<!-- Powered by <a href="http://www.openerp.com" target="_blank"><span>Odoo</span></a> -->
STEP#3 – remove “Odoo support” user for instant messaging
Goto Settings > Local Modules and uninstall module Odoo Live Support (im_odoo_support)
STEP#4 – remove Odoo announcement top bar
Empty the openerp_announcement function in addons/mail/static/src/js/announcement.js like this:
openerp_announcement = function(instance) {};
