Or BitNami is working as a server for me from my local computer? * I previously built a 14 page WP website in Canvas Theme and had no need to change code and the site works well. As far as I know there was no uploading using FTP to the server? * When you say: “Now, using FTP, upload that footer.php file to your child theme folder on the server.”? I don’t have an obvious “folder” to “upload a file” to?

I believe you said not to touch the Theme Functions so do I paste the footer PHP into the stylesheet CSS section? The CSS of the child theme is where I pasted a short code to remove Powered by WordPress. Do I paste the footer code below that other code?(shown below).

Would be great if it did, that’s how easy it should be. But there is no >Design option as described here: * “To access the Footer Options, in your WordPress Administration Panels go to Appearance > Theme Options > Design > Footer Options. * Footer Options * Footer Widgets – On/Off default is On.

How lame! This simple change should have builtin functionality and not make everyone change code to do such simple edits. Responsive looks easy until you try to customize it.
