The text is in admin/main/options/04.footer.php. However changes to this file will be overwritten when you update the theme.
So create a child theme, copy minamaze/footer.php to minamaze-child/footer.php and replace thinkup_input_copyright() with the text of your choice.
THANX WORKED FOR ME ::))))))
Hi, when creating a child theme and creating a new style.css should I just select all and copy and paste the orignal style code into the new style.css in the child directory and then make changes to it?
also if I copy the footer.php into that directory how do I point for modified the child version to be used?
many thanks
The child theme’s style.css should have the following code:
/*
Theme Name: Minamaze Child
Template: minamaze
*/
@import url("../minamaze/style.css");
To modify CSS you can copy blocks of code into this file and modify it.
also if I copy the footer.php into that directory how do I point for modified the child version to be used?
You don’t have to, WordPress looks into the child theme’s directory first. That is the purpose of child themes.
Thanks very much Jesin, very much appreciated. Just to confirm, when you say I can copy blocks into the CSS…..does that mean I dont have to start off by copying the entire content of the original CSS? Do I just copy the blocks I want to change? If so I assume it finds the rest of the content from the original style CSS…..am I understanding that correctly.
Sorry for nooob questions
You’re welcome!
The statement @import url("../minamaze/style.css"); makes sure the parent’s style.css is loaded, so no copy pasting is required.
Do I just copy the blocks I want to change?
Yes. An example, the parent’s CSS file has the following code:
input[type=text],
input[type=email],
input[type="password"],
textarea {
background: white;
border: 1px solid #E0E0E0;
padding: 5px;
}
Suppose you want to change the background colour of input boxes and text areas place the following code in the child theme’s style.css:
input[type=text],
input[type=email],
input[type="password"],
textarea {
background: blue;
}
