    I am trying to correct the name of a city in my footer. It is misspelled. It should be Brazoria, not Braazoria. Thanks…

  • What theme are you using? Where did you download it from?

    I believe I am using twenty twelve. My SEO guy created the website. I was with him for 4 years and finally decided to leave b/c the results were lacking. I am just trying to correct the spelling.

    Site url?

    Hi Oddjob,

    From the wordpress backend I would say it is going to be in the Appearance -> Editor area.

    Then on the right you have a list of files and it will be in the footer.php file. However this is editing the raw code of the site so if your not comfortable with code tread carefully.

    However not been able to see your file structure or how its been built I could be way out. Been a developer quite a few years and working on numerous themes normally the footer content sits in this file.

    Hope this helps

    You are not using the original 2012 theme. This is a custom theme.

    I already searched prior threads and tried that. When I went to edit the footer and look at the code, there is no references in the actual code to the city names. When I go to the code, this is what it shows:

    <?php
    
    /**
    
     * The template for displaying the footer.
    
     *
    
     * Contains the closing of the id=main div and all content
    
     * after.  Calls sidebar-footer.php for bottom widgets.
    
     *
    
     * @package WordPress
    
     * @subpackage Twenty_Ten
    
     * @since Twenty Ten 1.0
    
     */
    
    ?>
    
    <?php
    
    	/* A sidebar in the footer? Yep. You can can customize
    
    	 * your footer with four columns of widgets.
    
    	 */
    
    	get_sidebar( 'footer' );
    
    ?>
    
      <div class="footer_bg"><!--start footer-->
        	<div class="footer">
            	<div class="footer_nav">
                				<?php wp_nav_menu(array('menu' => 'footer_nav','container'=>'','menu_class'=>'','menu_id'=>'' )); ?>
                </div>
    
               <?php dynamic_sidebar('footer text widget'); ?>
            </div>
    
            <div class="footer_blue_bg">
            	<div class="footer_blue">
                	<div class="footer_logo"><a>"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/footer_logo.png" alt=""></a></div>
                	 <?php dynamic_sidebar('footer content Widget'); ?>
                </div>
            </div>
        </div><!--end footer-->
    
    <?php
    
    	/* Always have wp_footer() just before the closing </body>
    
    	 * tag of your theme, or you will break many plugins, which
    
    	 * generally use this hook to reference JavaScript files.
    
    	 */
    
    	wp_footer();
    
    ?>
    
    </body>
    
    </html>

    Ok great stuff,

    The text you are after is where the code is calling:-

    <?php dynamic_sidebar(‘footer text widget’); ?>

    It is text placed within a sidebar widget you need to go to Appearance -> Widgets

    There will be a widget area with a text block in containing the text you wish to edit.

    Hope this Helps

    You will need to go back to whoever created this custom theme for you.
