Remove WordPress / Theme footer

  • I’d like to remove the “Proudly Powered by WordPress | Theme: Canape by Automattic” footer. I’ve tried adding the following CSS to Appearance/Customize/Additional CSS, but it didn’t work.

    .czr-credits {
    display: none;
    }

    Thanks,
    Gregg

  • Hi Gregg,

    Did you get that CSS from an online tutorial or another theme? CSS is theme-specific, so code for one theme won’t necessarily work on another, and Canape, for example, doesn’t use a czr-credits class at all, so that code will have no effect on this theme.

    To hide the footer credits using CSS in this theme instead use this:

    div.site-info {
  visibility: hidden;
}

    If I wanted to add their copyright information in that area of the footer like “Copyright ? 2019 Two Guys Photography – All rights reserved” in plain white text, what code would I use for that?

    Thanks KokkieH for the other code, that worked great.

    For that you can use this CSS code:

    div.site-info::before {
  content: "Copyright ? 2019 Two Guys Photography - All rights reserved";
  visibility: visible;
  color: white;
}

    The options for styling that is limited, though – if you want it aligned more to the left or the right I can try to figure out the code for that, but that’s about the extent of what we’ll be able to do with CSS only.

    If you want to customize that even further, the recommended way to do that would be to create a child theme, and instead make these changes in the footer.php file of that child theme. I’m not able to help with that lever of customization, though.
