• I can’t figure out how to get rid of the “Proudly Powered by WordPress” portion of the footer. I’m trying to put my own credits in and a hyperlink to another website. Anyone got any script I can use?

    This is much easier to do in other templates, but being a novice I can’t see where to make the changes.

    I don’t think you need a script – try opening the footer.php file in your template, and see if you can remove it from there. That’s how I made changes to the bottom copyright links on my site.

    What should be removed? I’m looking at the code and nothing looks like what I’d remove.

    Hey guys,

    Happy new year!

    You could remove that part with some custom CSS. Try adding the following CSS code in the style.css file of your child theme or add it in your site using the following plugin if your theme doesn’t have custom CSS tab.

    http://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css

    .two {
    display: none;
    }

    This should remove that part in the footer. Also if you want to remove the part from footer.php I strongly suggest not editing theme core files because the changes will be lost once you update the theme. If this doesn’t work, please post link to your site so I can take a look.

    Hope this helps.

    Best regards,

    Thanks Bojan, working on it now.

    I’m having the same issue. All I want to do is have my company name with the copyright symbol next to (and maybe an email address or phone number) but the php is looking pretty foreign to me. Can anyone help?

    Here’s my site: http://sandbox.mademusicmanagement.com

    Thanks in advance to anyone who can lend me a hand!

    Hey there tmades,

    How are you doing today?

    Since there is a filter in theme themify-utils.php you could use that to change your copyright text. The easiest way to do that if you don’t have child theme would be to use plugin such as Code Snippets. Once the plugin is installed and activated simply go to Snippets >> Add New and add the following http://screencast.com/t/0O5ca11dQ0uN:

    add_filter( 'themify_base_the_footer_text_one', 'my_footer_text', 10, 2 );
    function my_footer_text() {
     return 'Insert your copyright text line one';
    }
    
    add_filter( 'themify_base_the_footer_text_two', 'my_footer_text2', 10, 2 );
    function my_footer_text2() {
     return 'Insert your copyright text line two';
    }

    Since copyright text has two lines you’ll add two filters for each of them. Replace dummy text (Insert your copyright text line one and Insert your copyright text line two) on both lines to the one of your choice then save changes and activate.

    This should change your footer copyright text. Hope this helps πŸ™‚

    Thank you Bojan! That’s great I got it now. One more question though. What if I want to add an image in the bottom right hand corner of every page (footer), how would I go abouts doing that?

    I want my circle logo in the bottom right hand corner πŸ™‚

    Thanks!!!

    Hey again tmades,

    I guess the best and easiest way to do that would be to add image into your footer.php and position it with some custom CSS. I strongly suggest not editing theme core files but rather making a copy in your child theme and making the modifications there.

    Once you do that open your child theme footer.php and replace the existing code with this one here http://pastebin.com/6X0p3agc.

    This should add the image to your footer. After that please try adding the following CSS code to your child theme style.css:

    @media screen and (min-width: 750px) {
    img.footerimage {
      float: right;
      margin-top: -120px;
    }
    }
    
    img.footerimage {
      margin-left: auto;
      margin-right: auto;
      width: 160px;
      display: block;
    }

    This should put the image on the right side of your footer on resolutions above 750px. Also please make sure that numeric value in width of the footer image matches the actual width of your image.

    Please let me know if this helps πŸ™‚

    Cheers,

    Hi Bojan

    Thanks for your reply, I followed the link you gave & installed code snippets & it has worked! And good news I have managed to reinstate all the code you gave me for centering posts etc so at the moment ‘all is good’ & is getting to how I want it to be!

    best regards

    Hey Laura,

    Have a great day!

    Hello,

    I would like to place a snippet on the footer section of my website but on the right hand side.
    Can someone please help explain how can I do this?
    Thank you.

    Hey there Ohmslawii,

    Use the instructions above to add the image to your footer and then post link to your site so I can take a look and try to position it on the right side with CSS.

    Best regards,
    Bojan

    hi Bojan,

    I installed the Code Snippets plugin, activated it and pasted in your code and activated it but nothing happens. It didn’t make any change at all.. any suggestions?

    Hey aldin30,

    This thread is pretty old so it’s possible that the theme developers have changed something in the theme or there is a conflict with some other plugin.

    Try placing that php code to the bottom of your theme functions.php so you can see if there is a problem with the code or the plugin I suggested.

    Cheers,
    Bojan
