    <summary type="html">&lt;html&gt;&lt;head&gt;&lt;/head&gt;&lt;body&gt;If you just delete images, browsers will start giving you a headache, a proper way is to modify a theme:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;- inside war file, find file templates/portal-normal.vm&lt;br&gt;- substitute the following piece of code:&lt;br&gt;&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;
	&amp;lt;div id="footer"&amp;gt;
		&amp;lt;div class="language"&amp;gt;$theme.language()&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;
	&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;
&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;br&gt;with our own code, make sure that your footer text is properly styled to be visible on dark background:&lt;br&gt;&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;
	&amp;lt;div id="footer"&amp;gt;
		this is my footer
	&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;
&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;br&gt;- save portal-normal.vm back into war file&lt;br&gt;- deploy updated theme to your portal&lt;br&gt;- no portal restart will be required&lt;/body&gt;&lt;/html&gt;</summary>

    <summary type="html">Hi,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the portal-ext.properties file is used to override settings which are made (by default) in portal-impl.jar/portal.properties. If you want to override settings, you need to create that (text)-file on your own. You can put it in ROOT/WEB-INF/classes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you want to remove the images... search them and delete them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;kind regards&lt;br /&gt;Tobias</summary>
