 * be careful on new updates, all changes will be lost. Best solution will be a 
   child theme or you can buy premium version for premium version exists special
   options for this.

 * Never, ever, ever edit the parent files directly. You will lose your changes 
   when the parent files are updated and that is almost certainly going to happen.
 * Instead create and activate a child theme called “Verbo Child”.
 * [https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes](https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
 * – Make a directory called `wp-content/themes/verbo-child` and put these 2 files
   in it.
 * `verbo-child/style.css`
 * Which contains
 *     ```
       /*
        Theme Name:   Verbo Child
        Description:  Verbo Child Theme
        Template:     verbo
        Version:      1.0.0
       */
       ```
   
 * Then make `verbo-child/functions.php` and put these lines in it.
 *     ```
       <?php
   
       add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'enqueue_parent_theme_style' );
       function enqueue_parent_theme_style() {
           wp_enqueue_style( 'parent-style', get_template_directory_uri().'/style.css' );
       }
       ```
   
 * Now copy the file `verbo/footer.php` into `verbo-child/footer.php` and edit that
   in your favorite text file editor.
 * Locate line number 43 in the copy and change it from
 *     ```
       <p><?php echo 'Copyright &copy; ' . date( 'Y' ) . '. Powered by <a href="http://wordpress.org" target="_blank">WordPress</a>.'; ?></p>
       ```
   
 * to
 *     ```
       <p><?php echo 'Copyright &copy; ' . date( 'Y' ) . '. Powered by <a href="http://wordpress.org" target="_blank">WordPress</a>.'; ?></p>
       ```
   
 * Or whatever you like. Raw HTML will work too.
 * By doing it this way, when the theme is updated then you will not lose your edits.
   Ideally the footer would have some sort of filter to modify that (it may, I spent
   only 15 minutes looking at this) but this will work too.
