Hi there,

Try this...

Paid for by ...<br />
© <?php _e('Copyright','themolitor');?> <?php echo date("Y "); Kurt for Seymour. All Rights Reserved. | Powered by <a href="http://wordpress.org">WordPress</a> | Theme: Politico by <a href="http://themeforest.net/user/themolitor/portfolio?ref=themolitor">THE MOLITOR</a>

Let me know if that works better ;-)

Best,

Chris

I tried my best replicating your code... php is something I definitely need to work with more...

I tried editing with:

© <?php _e('Copyright','WordPress','themolitor');?> <?php echo date("Y "); bloginfo('name'); ?>. <?php _e('All rights reserved. | Powered by,'WordPress'); ?> ">WordPress <?php _e('| Theme: Politico by','themolitor');?> ">THE MOLITOR

What I'm trying to do is to leave a line to at least give you some credit for the theme, so it reads something like (less the quotes):
"© Copyright 2013 Kurt for Seymour. All Rights Reserved. | Powered by WordPress | Theme: Politico by MOLITOR"
(links to wordpress.org, and your original links)

==========

Before this statement with a line break, I need text above with a line break (would the line break be as simple as <p>?)
So, to add the text before the copyright, would I just begin the code with: <?php _e('Paid for by... etc.');?> Then I can continue the next line of code (the copyright I mentioned above)?

Hi there,

The footer text is controlled from the footer.php file on line 62...

&copy; <?php _e('Copyright','themolitor');?> <?php echo date("Y "); bloginfo('name'); ?>. <?php _e('All rights reserved. Designed and developed by','themolitor');?> <a href="http://themeforest.net/user/themolitor/portfolio?ref=themolitor" title="<?php _e('Web Design & Development Services by THE MOLITOR','themolitor');?>">THE MOLITOR</a>

You can change that text to whatever you want :-)

Best,

Chris

Thank you!

I have a statement that I need to add to the footer due to political regulations. Is there a way for me to replace the code in the footer with the text that I need it to say?

I noticed you referring in another post about something having to do with editing line 60.

How do I replace the copyright statement in footer.php with text that I need to write, such as "Paid for by Kurt Miller Campaign 2013"?

Hi there,

There's a typo for the FB url. It's titled "Footer URL", but it's suppose to be "Facebook URL".

Regarding the menu, to remove that completely, open up "footer.php" and remove the following on line 40...

<?php wp_nav_menu(array('theme_location' => 'footer', 'container_id' => 'footerNav', 'menu_id' => 'footmenu')); ?>

Let me know if that helps.

Best,

Chris

Hi Chris,

I'm not looking for it to display links to any pages at all in the footer. I'm looking for a clean footer.

I do have a bit to customize still -- the gallery, etc., but I'm not sure what you specifically had in mind as far as with the "Customize" page? However, one thing I do notice is that with the new update, it's not showing an option for the FB URL... We have options for Twitter, etc., but FB is gone?

Hi there,

Be sure to select a menu for the footer menu section. You can control this from two places: (1) the menus page or (2) the theme customizer panel.

Also, it looks like you haven't configured your site from the new "Customize" page yet. Be sure to review all your settings at "appearance" > "customize".

Let me know if that helps.

Best,

Chris

I've created new pages after I recently upgraded to the new version (which I don't think is the issue), but for some reason the pages names are showing as links in the footer?

How (and why?) can I avoid this from happening?
