 * Hi,
 * David here, I recently found this cool theme and I’m just trying it out, but 
   I’ve found that I’m unable to change the footer text.
 * So I’ve tried changing it under the Appearance > Customize > Site Title and Tagline
   > Footer Copyright.
 * Whenever I try to change anything, the preview on the right displays the following
   message.
 * `Warning: call_user_func_array() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback, 
   function 'coeur_sanitize_footer' not found or invalid function name in /home/
   admin/public_html/wp-includes/plugin.php on line 214`
 * Would anyone be able to know what is the main issue causing this error ?
 * Thanks
    David

 * Looks like a bug in the theme. You could temporarily fix this by editing `framework/
   customizer.php`. Line 686 should be changed from:
 * `function footer_sanitize_footer( $footer ) {`
 * to
 * `function coeur_sanitize_footer( $footer ) {`
 * If you edit the theme files directly, this change would be overwritten, but hopefully
   the next theme update would include this change anyway.
