How to delete plugin

Hi, @tatami.

Sorry to hear about this! You’ll need to log in using an FTP application and either correct the error or overwrite the genesis-simple-edits folder with a fresh version of the plugin downloaded from here: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/genesis-simple-edits/

Your web host should be able to offer FTP login information if you don’t already have it.

Thank you Nick for your kind reply,
Unfortunately I can not overwrite the folder because when I log on wordpress / plugins appears to me this screenshot:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘class’ (T_CLASS), expecting ‘,’ or ‘)’ in /home/tamarabe/public_html/wp-content/plugins/genesis-simple-edits/includes/class-genesis-simple-edits-admin.php on line 63

I’m not very practical..

Hi, Tatami!

If you’ve accidentally introduced an error into a PHP file when editing it in WordPress, you won’t be able to fix this via the WordPress admin area, unfortunately.

You’ll need to use an FTP application or your web host’s file manager to correct the error. You can do that by editing the file to undo your changes, or by removing/renaming the genesis-simple-edits plugin directory via FTP or the file manager in your host’s control panel.

Once the error is corrected or the plugin is renamed, you’ll be able to log in to WordPress again to reinstall the plugin if you need to.

Hey ok! I’ve contact the ftp host, thank you for your kind support.

I try again to reinstall the plugin for change the footer, It will be possible?

Yes – once the plugin is working again, visit Genesis → Simple Edits and you’ll find the option to edit the footer credits there.

ok, I’ll try again ??
I can also color the background of the “footer” or just the text? thank you

Again the same error.
Probably I can’t use this plugin..

Sorry to hear that. Do you see the error only when you edit your footer? Or does it appear as soon as you activate the plugin?

If you see an error when you edit the footer and save your changes, can you share the updated text you were trying to save? It may be due to the content there.

If you would like to try some other alternatives to edit your footer, you can find those here: https://briangardner.com/customize-genesis-site-footer/

To edit the footer colour, you would need to use custom CSS. We don’t offer support for theme colour and layout customisation in this forum, but you could check out our community resources here: https://my.studiopress.com/community/

I see the error when I edit the footer (I hope to do in the right way)

Here is what I try to change:

I try to change this line:
$footer_html5 = sprintf( ‘<p>[footer_copyright before=”%s “] · [footer_childtheme_link before=”” after=” %s”] [footer_genesis_link url=”https://www.studiopress.com/&#8221; before=””] · [footer_wordpress_link] · [footer_loginout]</p>’, __( ‘Copyright’, ‘genesis-simple-edits’ ), __( ‘On’, ‘genesis-simple-edits’ ) );
$footer_xhtml = ‘<div class=”gototop”><p>[footer_backtotop]</p></div><div class=”creds”><p>’ . __( ‘Copyright’, ‘genesis-simple-edits’ ) . ‘ [footer_copyright] [footer_childtheme_link] · [footer_genesis_link] [footer_studiopress_link] · [footer_wordpress_link] · [footer_loginout]</p></div>’;

Can you suggest me how I can do this?

Thank you
