Adding Privacy Link to footer

  • I can’t seem to figure out how to add the link and url for the link to follow. I want to add a simple link to the footer of my Twenty Eleven child theme. Any help wold be appreciated. This is my Child theme footer.php file.

    <?php
/**
 * The template for displaying the footer.
 *
 * Contains the closing of the id=main div and all content after
 *
 * @package WordPress
 * @subpackage Twenty_Eleven
 * @since Twenty Eleven 1.0
 */
?>

	</div><!-- #main -->

	<footer id="colophon" role="contentinfo">

			<?php
				/* A sidebar in the footer? Yep. You can can customize
				 * your footer with three columns of widgets.
				 */
				if ( ! is_404() )
					get_sidebar( 'footer' );
			?>

			<div id="site-generator">

				<?php do_action( 'twentyeleven_credits' ); ?>
				<a>" title="<?php esc_attr_e( 'Semantic Personal Publishing Platform', 'twentyeleven' ); ?>"><?php printf( __( 'Proudly powered by %s', 'twentyeleven' ), 'WordPress' ); ?>
</a>
			</div>
	</footer><!-- #colophon -->
</div><!-- #page -->

<?php wp_footer(); ?>

</body>
</html>

  • Can you explain a bit further – what do you want to do with that link and what should it show on the page?

    Your template has this section in it:

    <?php
				/* A sidebar in the footer? Yep. You can can customize
				 * your footer with three columns of widgets.
				 */
				if ( ! is_404() )
					get_sidebar( 'footer' );
			?>

    Can’t you create a footer menu with a link to the privacy page and add it as a widget?
    That would be the easiest way to do it.

    I don’t know how to do that Christine. WPyogi, I know how to copy and paste and change url’s etc. I am just wanting “Privacy Policy” to show at the bottom of the page where the “Proudly powered by WordPress” is. It can go before or after I don’t mind. I just don’t know the code. I am assuming it goes in the footer.php. I found a link with code that created the “Privacy Policy” at the bottom of the page but I couldn’t figure out how to link to the page after I made it private. It gave me an error. Any help would be appreciated.
