    When I try to replace it the new image appears as a link.

    Can someone please help?

    Thank you

  • Hi leaman,

    What I understand is that you don’t want your logo in the footer to be clickable.
    It shouldn’t link to any page.

    If I am right, then I would like to know how are you changing the logo in the footer?
    Does your theme have the option to update in the customizer.
    Or you are modifying the code files.

    If you have access to code files, then you can change the code :
    This is the code generating the logo in the footer:

    <a href="index.html" class="logo"><img src="https://www.leamanmattei.com/wp-content/themes/leaman-mattei/images/footer-logo.png" alt=""></a>

    You can change it to :
    <img class="logo" src="https://www.leamanmattei.com/wp-content/themes/leaman-mattei/images/footer-logo.png" alt="">

    Hi Yashita,

    You’re correct the logo shouldn’t be clickable.

    But I actually want to change the logo/image. I’m trying to do so via the customise > widget > footer image

    I’ve got the image saved in the media library.

    Thank you.

    Look under APPEARANCE->WIDGETS as it appears that your footer may be a sidebar. If so, then you can edit the link out of that image using the normal WP editor.

    Hi Steve,

    No it’s not a sidebar – I only have inactive sidebars which isn’t the logo.

    The code for the current logo is in the footer image widget

    And how do you edit that footer image widget?

    I don’t know how to edit it – I thought I’d be able to replace the image link with the new image link but that doesn’t work.

    Please take a screenshot of what you see and post it to imgur.com. Put a link to that here.

    I don’t think you can do PHP in a text widget. Certainly, you *should not*. Get the URL of the image you want to use in the media library (copy from the image’s “page”) and paste in in place of that PHP block.

    Something like

    <img src="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/whatever/somefile.jpg" alt="Logo for something">

    It’s not showing the image (screenshot above), and also it’s a clickable link to the privacy policy which it shouldn’t be?

    Thank you.

    You’re missing a quote after “.jpg”. By the way, that image is huuuuge. You may want to scale it down to something appropriate for the footer.

    Thank you so much that’s worked perfectly!
