    I’d like to remove the “Proudly Powered By WordPress” text (and link) that appears by default at the bottom of every page. I’ve looked through all the Customize options for the Blank Canvas theme but I don’t see how to do it. Suggestions much appreciated!

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi, you can hide it with a little CSS added under Additional CSS in Customize:

    .site-info {
display: none; 
}

    @supernovia That did eliminate the WordPress tagline, but it also eliminated the navigation link to the home page. Does this theme not have an option in the settings to just remove the tagline? And if not, is there a simple way to remove only the WordPress tagline while leaving in the link to the home page? Thanks for your help, much appreciated!

    I see. Try this; it’s more specific:

    .site-info .imprint, .site-info .comma {
  display: none;
}

    Our themes do give credit to WordPress and don’t have a built-in option to turn it off.

    @supernovia Thanks, that worked. Is there documentation somewhere I could look at to learn more about how to make customizations like these?
