Not “how do I delete it”, but how do I “change” it.
Where in the Admin area do I change the text, the links, add to the text etc…
Go to Appearance–>Editor. Select footer.php. Look for this code:
<a href="<?php echo esc_url( __( 'http://fatboythemes.com/themes/leaf/', 'leaf' ) ); ?>" title="<?php esc_attr_e( 'Leaf Theme', 'leaf' ); ?>"><?php printf( __('Leaf Theme', 'leaf')); ?></a>
<?php printf( __( 'powered by', 'leaf' )); ?>
<a href="<?php echo esc_url( __('http://wordpress.org/', 'leaf')); ?>" title="<?php esc_attr_e('WordPress', 'leaf'); ?>"><?php printf( __('WordPress', 'leaf')); ?></a>
Replace it with whatever you want.
Ok thank you for that. However, none of the text currently in the footer, is in that page. So it much be held in at the database somewhere.
the guy that added the text to that footer is not a coder, so wouldn’t have done it in this way.
There has to be something somewhere where you edit it WYSIWYG stylly!!
What is your site link? That would help a lot.
If you’re trying to remove the info on the left side of the footer, that appears to be located in the footer.php. Look for the code immediately after:
<div class="copyright six columns">
In the original Leaf theme, the code that pulls the blog title is:
<?php esc_attr_e('©', 'leaf'); ?> <?php _e(date('Y')); ?> <a href="<?php echo home_url('/') ?>" title="<?php echo esc_attr(get_bloginfo('name', 'display')); ?>"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a>
You can change the title in Settings–>General–>Site Title. Or you can remove that code and replace it with what you want.
Ok – I want to change the content, not the design or removal.
I want to “add” text to it.
OK, so right now that bit of code pulls the blog title. If you don’t want to add text to the blog title in the General Settings page, you can remove that code and replace it with whatever it is you want to say. For example:
<p><a href="http://www.southhollandlife.com/">This is really what Simon_a6 wants to say.</a></p>
