Removing “Powered by WordPress” from the footer. Pixgraphy theme

    Please, can anyone help me out with this? I’m using the child theme of Pixgraphy (a theme I downloaded from www.remarpro.com), but so far all ways I found to remove ” Designed by: Theme Freesia | Powered by: WordPress” will be overwritten once I update the theme to a new version.

    The main problem I’m facing is to overwrite from my child theme the following from the functions.php file in the parent theme:

    require get_template_directory() . ‘/inc/footer-details.php’;

    This part from the footer I need to modify is in a folder called “inc” within the parent theme (footer-details.php).

    In case it helps, the URL is: picturesofireland.eu

    Any help will be much appreciated.

    The developers and users of this theme/plugin would be the best people to ask. You can reach them here:

    Thanks Steve, will try contacting them, but not sure they will be willing to help as in the way it’s done it looks like they don’t want people to modify that part of the theme ??
    Anyway, if anyone can help in the meanwhile, it will be much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Enric

    In your child theme, change get_template_directory to get_stylesheet_directory and copy that included file to your child where you can edit it.

    Thanks Steve.

    Not sure I understood exactly what you mean.

    I copied the include file in my child keeping the same structure (inside an inc folder), then I looks for the get_template_directory to replace it as indicated.

    The only place where I can find “get_template_directory” is in my child/functions.php file. It exactly says: get_template_directory_uri() and I changed it to get_stylesheet_directory_uri().

    Unfortunately this didn’t work as it looks like it “damaged” my CSS – the design of the page change like if it didn’t have a CSS file ??

    Sorry if I’m missing something basic, but if you have any other idea or i misunderstood something, please let me know.

    Again, many thanks for your time ??

    It looks like your theme was not made to be easily child-themes. Focus on the theme’s support forum.

    I guess I won’t have much luck with the theme’s support forum – there’s no answer for any of the previous questions in there. Any way, I will wait a bit and if I don’t hear from them I will write a review.

    I’m shocked www.remarpro.com supplies themes from developers like them (themes very tricky to modify and with no support at all) ?? – I hope that with few reviews www.remarpro.com will take some actions.

    Anyway, in what regards to you, many thanks for trying to help, much appreciated
    have a nice weekend,

    Problem solved. I had to go to their website for support, but they have been very kind and solved my problem.

    Hey man! Would you mind sharing the solution? I’m having the same problem…

    It would be much appreciated!
