Hey Erik

How are you doing today?

Please try adding the following CSS code in the style.css file of your child theme or add it in your site using the following plugin:

.zerif-copyright-box {
  display: none;
}

If this doesn’t work please keep the code added, post link to your and let me know so I can check it out.

Please let me know if this helps ??

Cheers,
Bojan

I still need help with this question please.

hi
can you help me too?? I tried with custom css but for me it does not work.:(

Hi! I don’t rememeber how I did it, probably I looked through all the php and css files in the editor looking for the same text as in the footer, when I found it I changed to my text.

Regards
Erik

Not sure where to plug in this code .zerif-copyright-box {
display: none;
}

can you show me. https://blueribbonofthesouth.com/

thanks

Simple! You go to following;

-> Appearance

-> Editor

-> Footer

-> Copy original!! This is a must, if you screw up and don’t remember the original, if you remove something wrong whole page will not work.

-> play with it untill you make it look like you want.

Hope you find out. Eirik

Hey again John,

I double checked on my sandbox site just to make sure and the following CSS does work, it removes only “Zerif Lite powered by WordPress” part.

Where exactly are you adding the code? The reason I ask is because I’m not being able to see it when inspecting your site which means either the there is something wrong with the CSS code above this or you’re not adding it to the right place.

.zerif-copyright-box {
    display: none;
}

As for what Eirik suggested, while this can be done this is definitely not the proper way of doing things. First of all editing php files via WordPress editor is not a good thing and in many cases can result in fatal errors, you’d want to use proper text editor (Notepad++, Sublime etc). Aside from that editing theme files should be done only in child theme as you don’t want to lose the changes every time you update the theme.

As this should be possible with just CSS I’d suggest using CSS as it is much easier.

Best regards,
Bojan

Wow Bojan’s advise worked for me!!

Hey Ro Aba,

Glad the code worked ??

Hi guys , by changing the footer credentials , i am experiencing rollback of the site especially only on header ,style.css and footer page. Do any one know the reason, if so plz help me…..

Hello guys
Could it be that this code does not work on a multisite? Thank you for answering
Melanie

The code worked. Thanks bojan,
it’s quite simple. download the plugin “simple custom css”. Add the given code in custom css and update the css. done !!

No need to make changes through editor.
It is more easy than a child theme.

To add your own text to footer, go to themes>customize>footer content and add your own.

Don’t worry about the copyright text it’s already gone.
