Remove built by storefront and woo footer message

Hi.

Regarding the footer. Here’s another thread that discussed this: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/remove-built-with-storefront-woocommerce/

Regarding the social media. I’d advise using Jetpack for that: https://jetpack.com/

Regarding the hover. You can use the Chrome inspector tools to find out how to target these specific sections. Here’s a quick screenshare of how to do that:

Fantastic thanks for reply. I had already tried what was suggested in the other thread..but it didn’t work. Although my built by is sitting under footer and using Goole it’s just a and site info is my copyright above so probably just need to change the selector.

Will get on PC this afternoon and sort the other 2

Again thanks and kind regards

Andy

Hey @loganzendesign – if your build is different than Storefront core, you might have to just look for other solutions. Our custom PHP tutorials only work for Storefront core.

Ok thanks. If it’s any different will be by mistake. Lol
I only changed CSS for the appearance of the site have messed around with any php etc.
Will take a look at the tutorials though as I want to try and learn more Dev skills.

Hey @loganzendesign, thanks for getting back to us. That sounds like a good plan indeed. If you’re looking for general help with developing WordPress, I’d advise to use the core forums or maybe even take a few courses as this forums isn’t intended to train people but more to help out with the configuration.

Just searching on the search engines for “WordPress development course” will give you a myriad of options to choose from.

I’ll be marking this thread as resolved now since you were pointing in the right direction for following up. All the best with expanding your skills set!

Hi, I managed to delete the ‘built by’ part, but it now leaves a little dot where it was before?? Can you see it bottom left?

How can that be fixed please?
Thanks.

Hey @chrispemble – first of all. Please open a new thread. This discussion doesn’t focus on this topic.

You currently only hid links in the footer with

.site-info a {
    display: none;
}

The . is not a link so it’s still showing. Either you delete the whole section with CSS (removing the a) or you use PHP mentioned in the post above.

@jobthomas Do you usually do such a half-baked job with your other projects as well? Because setting display: none still shows the damn dot at the end.

Hi @astatine85 – please read what I mentioned last:

The . is not a link so it’s still showing. Either you delete the whole section with CSS (removing the a) or you use PHP mentioned in the post above.

So what you’re telling me that is missing, is exactly what I’m telling the previous user and I’m explaining why the . is still showing and how to fix it.

There’s also no need to use this type of tone on these forums.

@jobthomas I’m sorry, I have read the other thread (which is now closed to replies hence commenting here) but I still don’t understand how to get right of the “.” that remains even when you get rid of the rest of the text in the footer? I’m not a developer, so forgive me, but if someone could explain again how to get rid of this final “.”? Thank you

Hey @graceandflourish – but removing the a in the code I shared above. So:

.site-info {
    display: none;
}

if ( ! function_exists( 'storefront_credit' ) ) {
	/**
	 * Display the theme credit
	 *
	 * @since  1.0.0
	 * @return void
	 */
	function storefront_credit() {
		?>
		<div class="site-info">
			<?php echo esc_html( apply_filters( 'storefront_copyright_text', $content = '&copy; ' . get_bloginfo( 'name' ) . ' ' . date( 'Y' ) ) ); ?>
			<?php if ( apply_filters( 'storefront_credit_link', true ) ) { ?>
			<br />
			<?php
				if ( apply_filters( 'storefront_privacy_policy_link', true ) && function_exists( 'the_privacy_policy_link' ) ) {
					the_privacy_policy_link( '', '<span role="separator" aria-hidden="true"></span>' );
				}
			?>
			<?php echo '<a href="https://woocommerce.com" target="_blank" title="' . esc_attr__( 'WooCommerce - The Best eCommerce Platform for WordPressTHIS IS THE HOVER TEXT', 'storefront' ) . '" rel="author">' . esc_html__( 'Built with Storefront & WooCommerceTHIS IS THE DISPLAYED TEXT', 'storefront' ) . '</a>.REMOVE THE PERIOD BEFORE THE WORD REMOVE AND REMOVE THESE CAPITAL LETTERS' ?>
			<?php } ?>
		</div><!-- .site-info -->

ADD THAT TO THE BOTTOM OF YOUR CHILD THEME

REMOVE CAPITAL LETTERS
