Edit footer text in Hemingway theme

  • Hello,

    I am using the Hemingway theme on WordPress 4.1. How do I edit the info in the footer? For example, the date in the footer is currently listed as “2014”, and a week from now I’d like to change it to “2015” and/or make other adjustments to the footer text.

    Thank you,
    Bob

  • It looks like it will automatically update the year. If you want to change the text to something else you’ll have to edit the footer template file.

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

    <p class="credits-left">
      Your Text Here
    </p>

    <p class="credits-right">
      Your Text Here
    </p>

    <div class="clear"></div>
  </div> <!-- /credits-inner -->
</div> <!-- /credits -->

    Don’t forget to make a child theme if you’re editing template files.

    Thanks for reply. Apologies, I’m very much a newcomer to WordPress: how do I create a child theme?

    No problem – definitely a good idea so that you won’t lose the changes when the theme is updated!

    Here’s the codex page you need:
