Explanation

If you're looking to tidy up your WordPress login screen by removing the "Powered by WordPress" text and logo, here's a simple way to do it.

Hide "Powered by WordPress": The code uses a bit of CSS to hide the "Powered by WordPress" text. This is done by setting the display property to none for specific elements on the login page.
Remove WordPress Logo: Similarly, the WordPress logo is hidden by targeting the logo element and setting its display to none.
Change Logo URL: By default, clicking the WordPress logo on the login page takes you to WordPress.org. This code changes the URL to your site's homepage instead.
Customize Logo Title: When you hover over the logo, a tooltip appears. This code changes the text of that tooltip to your site's name.

These tweaks help make your login page look more professional and personalized without any WordPress branding. Just add this code to your theme's functions.php file, and you're good to go!

Code
<?php
// Function to remove 'Powered by WordPress' from the login screen
function wp_dudecom_remove_powered_by_wordpress() {
    ?>
    <style type="text/css">
        /* Hide the 'Powered by WordPress' text on the login page */
        .login #backtoblog, .login #nav {
            display: none;
        }
    </style>
    <?php
}
add_action('login_enqueue_scripts', 'wp_dudecom_remove_powered_by_wordpress');

// Function to remove the WordPress logo from the login page
function wp_dudecom_remove_wordpress_logo() {
    ?>
    <style type="text/css">
        /* Hide the WordPress logo on the login page */
        .login h1 a {
            display: none;
        }
    </style>
    <?php
}
add_action('login_enqueue_scripts', 'wp_dudecom_remove_wordpress_logo');

// Function to change the URL of the WordPress logo on the login page
function wp_dudecom_custom_login_logo_url() {
    return home_url();
}
add_filter('login_headerurl', 'wp_dudecom_custom_login_logo_url');

// Function to change the title attribute of the WordPress logo on the login page
function wp_dudecom_custom_login_logo_url_title() {
    return 'Your Site Name';
}
add_filter('login_headertext', 'wp_dudecom_custom_login_logo_url_title');
