 * Updating the site and I want to change the copyright text.
 * The editor is blank.
 * No matter how I try to edit it, highlight anything or try any editing – nothing
   there.
 * Any suggestions?
 * ALSO, large heading top-margin/gap or some setting in the Footer row. Cannot 
   find anything in the Cusomiser at present (yes, I know you Chimps all been monkeying
   around with it for the lat few months).
 * Using old browser Firefox 115 on Win7 if that helps.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fediting-copyright-text%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Slight amendment.
 * I found that the larger top-margin/gap might be a hidden paragraph inside the
   copyright text. Used the browser code inspector to find that one.
 * Still need to edit the copyright text and remove that invisible blank line, if
   that is the issue.
