 * Hi, I want to remove the footer from my website (www.little-robot.co.uk) which
   says
    “Powered by WordPress · Theme by DinevThemes”
 * I have tried looking in the footer.php file but it doesn’t seem to be there. 
   I’ll copy and paste the footer.php code below.
 * Any help is much appreciated.
 * Thanks
 * <?php
    /** * The template for displaying the footer. * [@package](https://wordpress.org/support/users/package/)
   Squarex */ ?>

   | is_active_sidebar( ‘footer3’ ) ) { ?>
