 * You can use [Omega custom footer plugin](https://themehall.com/product/omega-custom-footer-plugin)

 * _*Looks at code. Hey, that’s a nice use of filters and actions.*_
 * A plugin is a _great_ way to do it and if you want to support the author by doing
   that then I am sure that will be appreciated.
 * However, if you want to learn some coding you can create and use your own plugin.
   It’s not hard.
 * In your `wp-content/plugin` directory and create a file named `mh-omega-footer.
   php`.
 * In that new file paste in these lines.
 *     ```
       <?php
   
       /*
       Plugin Name: Customize Footer on Omega theme and it's child themes
       Description: This plugin hard codes a new footer into the <a href="https://wordpress.org/themes/omega/">Omega theme</a> and any child themes for Omega.
       Version: 0.1
       */
   
       add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'mh_footer_setup', 21  );
   
       function mh_footer_setup() {
       	// Add new footer a via a filter
       	add_filter( 'omega_footer_insert', 'new_default_footer_insert' );
       	// Remove old footer via the same filter
       	remove_filter( 'omega_footer_insert', 'omega_default_footer_insert' );
       }
   
       function new_default_footer_insert( $settings ) {
   
       	return '<p class="copyright">' . __( 'Copyright © ', 'omega' ) . date_i18n( 'Y' ) . ' ' . get_bloginfo( 'name' ) . '.</p>' . "\n\n" . '<p class="credit"><a class="child-link" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_Attacks!" title="Tom Jones was in it!">Mars Attacks!</a> was a fun movie</p>';
   
       }
       ```
   
 * Which is a little unreadable and you can get a copy from this URL.

 * I like Mars Attacks. Tom Jones didn’t get enough credit. 😉
 * I have not looked at any of the child themes that the Omega theme puts into the
   theme dashboard as advertisement, but this plugin should work for any of those
   themes too.
 * If you make a mistake in this plugin then use FTP or whatever file management
   tools your host provides you with to just delete the `mh-omega-footer.php` file.
