Add content to footer-credits

    Hi Anders,

    Currently, the only way to add more content to the footer-credits is by editing the footer.php, which results in lost changes after updating the template.

    I don’t know if it can be done, but I’d love to see an option, where I can add more content to be shown in the footer-line via the frontend.

    Even better, perhaps there is way I can add a default text that is added to the credits (like a credit for the header-image) and additionally, I can overwrite this default text in each entry/page when using another header-image I want to credit.

    I hope, that wasn’t too confusing ??

  • If you are comfortable with code try using a child theme, so that if the theme updates no changes will be lost..

    Change this area of footer.php 

    <div class="credits section bg-dark no-padding">

		<div class="credits-inner section-inner">

			<p class="credits-left">

				&copy; <?php echo date("Y") ?> <a href="<?php echo home_url(); ?>" title="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a>

			</p>

			<p class="credits-right">

				<span><?php printf( __( 'Theme by <a href="%s">Anders Noren</a>', 'hemingway'), 'https://www.andersnoren.se' ); ?></span> &mdash; <a title="<?php _e('To the top', 'hemingway'); ?>" class="tothetop"><?php _e('Up', 'hemingway' ); ?> &uarr;</a>

			</p>

			<div class="clear"></div>

		</div> <!-- /credits-inner -->

	</div> <!-- /credits -->

    Hi Martin,

    I understand what you’re asking for, and it’s certainly possible, but I want to keep Hemingway as simple as possible. I might add support for custom credit text in the future, but I don’t promise anything.

    For now, I’d recommend you to do as bravokeyl suggests and use a child theme. That way, you can make changes without worrying about them being reset by updates.
