Hello all.
I’m still very much a newbie. I tried to change the link in the footer of the twentythirteen theme in WP and made such a mess of it, I had to have the theme downloaded again by my host.
In order to do it right this time, I wonder if someone could help me to replace the WordPress footer: “Proudly Powered by WordPress” to my chosen link down there: “Privacy”. I simply want to remove the wordpress footer link and replace it with my privacy link to the Affiliate Disclaimer page.

Here is my site’s URL: https://pizza-crust.net

Here is the WP footer HTML:

<?php
/**
* The template for displaying the footer
*
* Contains footer content and the closing of the #main and #page div elements.
*
* @package WordPress
* @subpackage Twenty_Thirteen
* @since Twenty Thirteen 1.0
*/
?>

</div><!– #main –>
<footer id=”colophon” class=”site-footer” role=”contentinfo”>
<?php get_sidebar( ‘main’ ); ?>

<div class=”site-info”>
<?php do_action( ‘twentythirteen_credits’ ); ?>
” title=”<?php esc_attr_e( ‘Semantic Personal Publishing Platform’, ‘twentythirteen’ ); ?>”><?php printf( __( ‘Proudly powered by %s’, ‘twentythirteen’ ), ‘WordPress’ ); ?>
</div><!– .site-info –>
</footer><!– #colophon –>
</div><!– #page –>

Thank you for any help I can get.

Hello abletec,

I did contact my host. They did re-install my theme for me. I am able to get back into the site again as I copy and pasted your suggestion to them and they followed the instruction.
Many, many thanks for your help!!!

Hello abletec.

Thanks very much for your response. I’m sorry to say that I am not sure what your suggestion means. How do I reupload the theme to the directory when I can’t get into it at all? And how do I use FTP or my host control panel’s file manager? Please remember…I’m too new and not familiar with this at all.
