Copyright in footer

For the free version, unfortunately there is no sidebar in the footer. However, if you don’t mind the spacing, you could add it using one of the Bottom sidebar positions.

To minimize the space between the bottom sidebar and the copyright, then you can use a plugin like Simple Custom CSS (unless you’re using Jetpack – you can use the Edit CSS) so you can adjust the footer copyright container with some CSS code to bring it closer to the bottom sidebar positions…something like this:

#colophon {
    margin-top: 1%;
}

I would be interested in adding link in footer too

@vadikcoma….similar solution as the above one would apply as well. The other solution though would require you to create a child theme and then copy the /template-parts/site-footer.php into it and then wrap the copyright element as a link. If you do this, you want to make sure that the site-footer.php file is put in the same location as the parent theme has it, which means making sure in the child theme, you have a folder “template-parts” where the site-footer.php file would go. Then you can edit that one.

**The child theme allows you to keep getting theme updates without losing your custom changes to the theme.
