Reset to default 1There probably isn't a simple button you can push (unless there's a special one the theme developer created), but it can most likely be done via some basic theme tweaking.
First, make a child theme. There are lots of tutorials about how to do that.
Second, modify the child theme. Two options for this:
- hide the message via CSS: Find the CSS class for some enclosing HTML tag (there are several ways to determine that), and hide it via a CSS
display:none
. One drawback is that there's a risk Google might be unhappy with the page hiding things. - customize the footer: Copy
footer.php
from the parent theme to the child theme. Edit the copy and remove the text you don't want, plus perhaps any enclosing now-empty HTML tags. One drawback is that if you later install an updated version of the parent theme, the child theme will still be using a modified version of the old footer.
Also, the generic WordPress themes have a similar footer message, which many people want to remove. So a web search for 'remove proudly powered by WordPress' should find lots of tutorials. Your situation is probably almost the same.
There are a million ways to do this but this is the easiest.
In the admin, go to Appearance > Custimize > Additional CSS and add the following CSS, then hit publish.
.footer_btm_left {display: none;}
Refresh your site and that text should be gone.
Note: This will remove the text but leave the black box empty. If you want to remove the entire black box add the following CSS.
.site-info {display: none;}
