Rebranding Wordpress Android app for the self hosted blog -


i downloaded source of wordpress app. on process of rebranding wordpress app (icons & lebels) self hosted site. wondering, if there process / configuration option remove wordpress links & wordpress blogging options app. doesn't make sense user download app market place & go wordpress site it.

this generic android question:

i want users able use both default wordpress app & self hosted app. however, that, think need change package name in android manifest , refactor old package names of java class. loose ability sync & update of latest build of wordpress app.

is there way can install same code same package (as different application) without conflicting wordpress app ?

can point me direction can find more details on application namespace / package name conflicts?

there few things must rebrand:

  1. you need edit androidmanifest.xml , change references wordpress.
  2. change icons (/res/drawable) show worpress logo.
  3. change strings (/res/values & /res/values-xx) "wordpress".
  4. search sources if there occurences of "wordpress" in strig literals.
  5. you need change package name of classes. trivial. use refactoring in ide.

answer: package name must unique - apps in market can searched package name: http://developer.android.com/guide/publishing/publishing.html

note: wordpress android app licensed under gpl - have make sources available under gpl public.
