Alter footer text in spun theme
-
Hi,
Can any one tell me how to alter the footer text in a child spun theme?
Cheers.

I would also like to do this, thanks
You’ll need to set up a child theme and then post a link to your site.
thanks, I have now done this
Cool – so now you need to make a copy of the footer.php file and put that in your child theme folder.
What do you want to change?
wow, that was quick! 🙂
I want to change it to:
Copyright © 2013 Rachel Lucie Jewellery | All rights reserved | Theme by Caroline Moore
I want the writing that is shown in bold to be links, and it would be great if the year was auto-updating, if possible.
Will copy that file over now …
Sorry it took me so long to get back to this – in that copy of the footer.php file, replace this:
<?php do_action( 'spun_credits' ); ?> <a href="http://wordpress.org/" title="<?php esc_attr_e( 'A Semantic Personal Publishing Platform', 'spun' ); ?>" rel="generator"><?php printf( __( 'Proudly powered by %s', 'spun' ), 'WordPress' ); ?></a> <span class="sep"> | </span> <?php printf( __( '%1$s by %2$s.', 'spun' ), '<a href="http://carolinemoore.net/" rel="designer">Spun', 'Caroline Moore</a>' ); ?>
with this:
<a rel="generator"> Copyright © <?php echo date('Y'); ?> <a rel="designer" href="http://www.rachelluciegallery.co.uk/">Rachel Lucie Jewellery | All rights reserved | Theme by <a rel="designer" href="http://carolinemoore.net/">Caroline Moore</a> </a>
spot on, WPyogi, thanks!!
now, I would really love to get the correct method to make the footer stay and not disappear – I managed it with the #masthead and have followed instructions I found in the forum, but it failed. Should that be a new post?
cheers
LOL – that’s so funny because as I was experimenting with this change on a test site, I had to figure out how to make it do the disappearing thing!
Anyway, try adding this CSS:
#colophon, #colophon a { color: #999999; }
thanks, sorted 🙂
Hi all
I have now done this with 2 links, site & facebook page
http://www.thegreatphotobooth.gr
<?php do_action( 'spun_credits' ); ?> <a href="http://www.thegreatphotobooth.gr/" title="<?php esc_attr_e( 'Strike a Pose with The GREAT Photobooth !!!', 'spun' ); ?>" rel="generator"><?php printf( __( 'Copyright 2013 %s', 'spun' ), 'The GREAT Photobooth' ); ?></a> <span class="sep"> | </span> <?php printf( __( '%1$s %2$s.', 'spun' ), '<a href="http://www.facebook.com/thegreatphotobooth/" rel="designer">Spun', 'The GREAT Photobooth - Find us on Facebook</a>' ); ?>
I followed this, and everything is fine except 1 thing. I can’t get swedish å,ä and ö to work in my name in the footer. It just appears as a questionmark 🙂
Anyone have an idea what it might be?
<div class="site-info"> <a rel="generator"> Copyright © <?php echo date('Y'); ?> <a rel="designer" href="http://www.löw-larsen.se/">Löw-Larsen | All rights reserved | </a> </a>
