    Hi!

    I would like to change the credits in the site footer but am unable to find the place where I can do that. Can someone help to point me in the right direction?

    I am specifically speaking about this text:
    COPYRIGHT © 2017 · ASPIRE PRO ON GENESIS FRAMEWORK · WORDPRESS · LOG IN

    Many thanks!

    The footer code comes from the Genesis Framework. So in order to change/edit it, you’ll need to add some code to the functions file. Take a look at this page in the Genesis Docs – https://my.studiopress.com/documentation/snippets/footer/

    From that page you’ll see this link that explains how to edit the entire footer – https://my.studiopress.com/documentation/snippets/footer/customize-the-site-footer/

    Thanks a lot Wes. I ended up using the Simple Edits plugin for now to make the adjustments I wanted… worked fine so far.

    I couldn’t really find the code to customize in the functions.php… Should I just add the code they show under your links in the functions.php?

    “I couldn’t really find the code to customize in the functions.php… Should I just add the code they show under your links in the functions.php?”

    The code isn’t in the functions file it’s inside the Genesis Framework. In order to change how it appears in the Framework, you would need to add the code inside the functions file (in the Child Theme). When you add the code from the link above inside the functions file, it overrides the default code from the framework (so you don’t have to edit the Framework Files).

    Using a plugin like Simple Edits will also get the job done as well. Just make sure there are no PHP errors when you add it in.

    Thanks again Wes. I was now able to do it. Btw, I simply inserted the code at the end of the functions.php. Is that fine or should it be added in a specific position?

    Yes that’s fine. You can add it anywhere in the functions file as long as it’s not inside any other code/section.
