CSS code is totally theme and site specific, so no, it would not likely work.
That’s not a valid URL…this site [link removed] (dot) info/ is using twentytwelve. ??
OK, I didn’t know that.
I know it’s invalid i inserted spaces – I though maybe in this way google won’t track this comment and show it in connection to my page. The country ending is .DE – the .INFO one is another page – that guy has the same name as me.
Thanks
This CSS should work:
#footer .designed {
display: none;
}
BUT, are you modifying theme files? If so, your changes will be overwritten and lost when the theme is updated. You should instead be using a Child Theme or custom CSS option/plugin (for CSS only – if you need to modify other theme files, you need a child theme).
Perfect, that worked! 🙂 Thanks a lot! I pasted it into custom CSS. Still the copyright is not centered for whatever reason, but ok.
Are the themes updated automatically and my code is overwritten even when I don’t touch my site and don’t make any updates myself? I am a wordpress beginner – 4 weeks ago I had no clue how a ftp upload works. I don’t think I’ll be able to build the child theme. Looks too complicated to me right now… :-/
Are you making changes to theme files (not custom CSS or theme options in your dashboard)? Those are the ones you should not be doing except in a child theme.
Where are you entering the copyright? Was that a edit to the footer.php file?
Mhh I am not sure – the changes I made were to those files found under “edit”. Basically footer.php, header.php, page.php and style css.
I should not be doing changes here because it’s not allowed or because my changes might get overwritten by an automatic update? Sorry for my naive questions – this is really something I don’t understand at all…
The copyright is entered in theme settings – actually I just deleted it, I can live with that solution. Doesn’t really make sense is this case to use it anyway… 😉
Your questions are fine :). That’s what we (try) to do here!
Yes, the overwritten thing — anything is “allowed” — at least if you are using a decent theme (some spammy/corrupt theme developers try to keep people from modifying their themes).
If you are changing .php files, you really should be using a child theme: http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes
That way, you can change anything you want and still make updates – which are important to do since they may involve security / compatibility issues.
