Remove wordpress and theme name from footer

The following CSS should do the trick:

.copyright > .free-credit { display: none; }

I tried the css but it did not work. Please can you have a look why it did not work. Appreciate your help.

Sure. At the moment it seems the site is not loading properly so I cannot analyze the issue properly. However, you could try adding the “!important” directive to the CSS like so:

.copyright > .free-credit { display: none !important; }

Let me know if that doesn’t work and I’ll have a look at the code when the site is available.

Dear Eric,

Thanks for your help. I tried it did not work. My site was under maintenance mode. I have opened the site. Please can you inspect what is going wrong.

It appears the stylesheet override is not loading. It doesn’t appear you are using a child theme it could mean the custom CSS plugin or method you are using is not functioning as expected.

I suggest using the Jetpack plugin’s Custom CSS module. Instructions for using the module are located at jetpack.me.

Wow…thats was so cool….I think the themes custom css had restrictions. Can I add privacy policy or contact details in the footer as I can see that free credits are gone now.

Sure. In order to do that though, you would need to setup a child theme or utilize hooks within the active theme to override the template output.

Setting up a child theme is documented in the codex. Once the child theme is setup and activated, you would need to identify the template part responsible for generating the footer within the active theme, copy it to your child theme and make necessary modifications. Child theme templates override their parent theme counterparts.

Hooks can be found by searching the source code for apply_filters or do_action then leveraged by using add_filter and add_action function calls respectively.

Hope this helps.
