 * Hello,
 * I am new to Word Press and I am trying to edit my company’s website with new 
   address. I highlight the old address and click inspect elements. I then see a
   place where I can delete the old address and put in a new one but I do not know
   how to save the change.
 * Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 * You can’t change your site contents using Inspect Element tools.
 * Where you’ll change it depends on how it was inserted in the first place. Might
   be in a widget, header, footer… A link to your site would help.

 * The site is [http://holzmanmossbottino.com](http://holzmanmossbottino.com) . 
   The home page I was able to fix in the widgets. But I cant figure out how to 
   change the footer on the other 3 pages. -Thanks

 * If there is no widget at work on those pages, nor an easy customization option
   available, take a look at your theme’s `footer.php` file to see if it was added
   there.

 * It occurred to me that you may need a pointer there to get you going.
 * If you have the ability to edit theme files through WP admin, you can look for
   it in that way.
 * If not, first log in to your web hosting account. You can use your web-host’s
   cPanel or file manager, or an [FTP client](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients)(
   like FileZilla) to do this. Navigate to `wp-content/themes/HMBA` and look for`
   footer.php`.
