Ok so I tried adding that snippet, but it did not work. I put a custom word inside of line 3, as instructed, but the credit remained. Any help? Thank you.
It should be working, its tested numerous times. Did you clear your cache ?
I have tried it three times, and it is still not working. Are there any workarounds?
You don’t have to replace line number 3, but put the html inside the variable. Here’s an example:
add_filter('tc_credits_display', 'my_custom_credits');
function my_custom_credits(){
$credits = 'Customized by <a href="http://wordpress.org/support/profile/foodergolove" title="foodergolove\'s profile on WordPress">foodergolove</a>';
$newline_credits = '';
return '
<div class="span4 credits">
<p> · © '.esc_attr( date( 'Y' ) ).' <a href="'.esc_url( home_url() ).'" title="'.esc_attr(get_bloginfo()).'" rel="bookmark">'.esc_attr(get_bloginfo()).'</a> · '.($credits ? $credits : 'Designed by <a href="http://www.themesandco.com/">Themes & Co</a>').' ·'.($newline_credits ? '<br />· '.$newline_credits.' ·' : '').'</p> </div>';
}
Of course, you’ll need to change the html to whatever you need. Also, make sure you escape any single quote in your html by preceding it with a backslash, the same way I have done in the title of the link, in the above example.
Could you just add an option of editing the footer in a dashboard or at least enable customization by Custom CSS field?
