    Hi there,

    This plugin was recommended to me as a way of replacing this:
    PROUDLY POWERED BY WORDPRESS | THEME: LODESTAR BY AUTOMATTIC.

    Which uses this code:
    <div class=”site-info”>
    <div class=”wrap”>
    “><?php printf( esc_html__( ‘Proudly powered by %s’, ‘lodestar’ ), ‘WordPress’ ); ?>
    <span class=”sep”> | </span>
    <?php printf( esc_html__( ‘Theme: %1$s by %2$s.’, ‘lodestar’ ), ‘Lodestar’, ‘Automattic‘ ); ?>
    </div><!– .wrap –>
    </div><!– .site-info –>

    with this code (by KokkieH (@kokkieh):
    </div><!– .wrap –>
    </div><!– .site-info –>
    Proudly powered by WordPress
    <span class="sep"> | </span>
    Theme: Lodestar by Automattic.
    </div><!– .wrap –>
    </div><!– .site-info –>

    Then using your plugin enter that code above in Step 1 and this wording in Step 2:

    Copyright © 2019 | All Right Reserved.
    Projection Pictures Ltd | Company No.9661966
    A Company Registered in England and Wales.

    Why does Lodestar not ACCEPT entries into Step 1 and 2, without me resorting to pasting in that code from KokkieH (@kokkieh) to make it work. KokkieH (@kokkieh) pointed out that if Lodestar updates it will override the code I pasted into the site-info.php file. Therefore I should raise this problem with you.

    Thank you for reading this.

    KR,
    Ian.

    Just noting we’d recommend against altering the theme code directly. That would make our instructions not work.

    Let us know if that helps!

    with this code (by KokkieH (@kokkieh):

    Just to clarify – I merely copied that from the theme’s source code, as that’s the HTML that needs to be removed to remove the footer attribution.

    Cross-linking to the theme thread for more context.

    Hi @pr0ject10n,

    Thanks for reaching out!
    To remove the copyright text just go to your dashboard > Tools > Remove footer credits > step 1 and paste there this code:

    <div class="site-info">
	<div class="wrap">
		<a href="https://wordpress.org/">Proudly powered by WordPress</a>
		<span class="sep"> | </span>
		Theme: Lodestar by <a href="http://automattic.com/" rel="designer">Automattic</a>.	</div><!-- .wrap -->
</div><!-- .site-info -->

    You can leave Step 2 empty or add your own text there > save.
    This should do it.

    Warmly,
    Mihaela

    Hi Miheala,

    Thank you for replying. Eventually KokkieH supplied the right code as the first didn’t do what was expected, but another was supplied which is this:

    <a href="https://wordpress.org/">Proudly powered by WordPress</a>
<span class="sep"> | </span>
Theme: Lodestar by <a href="http://automattic.com/" rel="designer">Automattic</a>

    The same as yours. I appreciate you getting in touch. As you can see my website now has the type in the footer I wanted:

    https://www.projectionpictures.com

    Thank you. So all good now KokkieH.

    Ian.

    Hi there,

    My site info has this entered in Stage 2:

    Copyright © 2019 Projection Pictures Ltd.
    All rights reserved. Company no.9661966.
    A Company Registered in England and Wales.

    and it all appears in CAPS below on the live site.

    COPYRIGHT © 2019 PROJECTION PICTURES LTD.
    ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. COMPANY NO.9661966.
    A COMPANY REGISTERED IN ENGLAND AND WALES.

    Is there code to correct this and is it entered in the TEXT section of Stage 2 of ‘Remove Footer Plugin’, or in the additional CSS section for the Theme?

    Many thanks.
    Ian

    Hi @pr0ject10n,

    It’s uppercase because of the theme’s styling.
    To undo that, please add this code in Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS:

    .site-info p {
	text-transform: none;
}

    Warmly,
