 * Hi,
 * How should I modify footer.php and upload it to your theme folder adding my name
   to the copyright line to display it.
 * Any advice would be appreciated.
 * Thank you for invaluable help!

 * Sounds like you’ll need to set up a Child Theme first: [https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes](https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)

 * I would like to remove the Powered by WordPress and add a name and copyright 
   line in the footer without setting up a Child Theme. Usually I can just go under
   editor and do it in footer php. This is not working for me. Thank you!

 * Hi, changing theme files is not recommended, because all changes will be lost
   after update. Footer text hooked to the footer in sgwindow_site_info hook, so
   you can remove/change that hook from child theme or any plugin. Also you can 
   set theme mod ‘footer_text’ or install theme plugin with that option.

 * Tatyanik777, this option exists in the SG Pro plugin or you can add/remove php
   code with set theme mod function, see – [https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/set_theme_mod](https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/set_theme_mod).
 * `<?php set_theme_mod( 'footer_text', 'blah blah' ); ?>`
