    It depends on the theme. Some theme’s are as easy as just creating a child theme, making a copy of the parent theme’s footer.php file and editing the footer that way.

    Other themes are a little more complicated. Which theme are you using?

    Sorta. Ish. ??

    We don’t support themes from Artisteer here but you can try editing the footer.php file directly (generally not a good idea) or as I said create a child theme, making a copy of the parent theme’s footer.php file and editing the footer that way.

    The reason you want to go with a child theme is so that your changes will not be lost when a theme update comes out. I’m not sure that applies to Artisteer themes though.
