   So i'm trying to fix some minor problems with a clean 3.3 install and the TwentyEleven template (1.3)

   the first error i want to fix is the

   <a href="http://wordpress.org/" title="Semantic Personal Publishing Platform" rel="generator">Proudly powered by WordPress</a>

   and change rel="generator" to rel="author" with the code below but it's not working (note this is my first attempt at a plugin)

   <?php
   function replace_content_rel_generator($content) {
   $content = str_replace("rel='generator'", "rel='author'", $content);
   return $content; }
   add_filter('wp_footer','replace_content_rel_generator');
   ?>

   You have double quotes in your string "generator" and use single quotes in your str_replace 'generator'

   wp_footer is not a filter, it's an action, it does not pass you any content to do string replacement on.

   That text is added by the theme. Generally themes override plugins. You could make it happen, using http://php.net/ob_start/ but there may be a better way. Or just mod the theme, footer.php.

   Better yet..

   1. Create a child theme.
   2. Copy the footer.php from the TwentyEleven theme into your child theme's directory.
   3. Open the file, remove what you don't want.
   4. Save the changes.
   5. Job done.
