In this lesson you'll learn how to edit the footer text in the sparkling theme.

00:05.820 --> 00:11.290
Now for any theme you might have to do a little bit of research yourself for how to remove the footer

00:11.310 --> 00:13.150
copyright information.

00:13.230 --> 00:20.250
This is this little theme by color lib parred by WordPress techs down here that's automatically added

00:20.340 --> 00:22.220
When you install this theme.

00:22.230 --> 00:26.740
If you have a different theme it will probably have the other themes information down here.

00:26.760 --> 00:32.310
They like to include that because they are the creators sometimes in their custom settings there might

00:32.310 --> 00:34.650
be an option for changing this.

00:34.740 --> 00:42.330
And here in the sparkling options if you go to the sparkling options footer you do have this copyright

00:42.330 --> 00:43.860
text and footer spot.

00:43.890 --> 00:53.350
But if I do this they say copyright 20:17 Abner design's what happens is it just shows up next to this

00:53.350 --> 00:54.680
text right here.

00:54.700 --> 00:59.760
What if I want to completely get rid of this text promoting color lib.

00:59.890 --> 01:04.210
Well like I said you'll have to do a little bit of research because it's different for every theme but

01:04.210 --> 01:09.480
I just search for how to remove footer copyright info for sparkling theme in Google and has popped up.

01:09.520 --> 01:14.710
Most modern themes will have their own documentation or their own forum where you could ask questions

01:14.740 --> 01:20.440
and I'm sure that every team out there that's been around for a while someone has asked this and they

01:20.440 --> 01:22.600
actually got back with this.

01:22.630 --> 01:26.040
As that we can plug in to take out that information.

01:26.050 --> 01:34.720
So let's just copy this copyright information and if we go back to our other settings and we plug this

01:34.720 --> 01:41.590
in remember we turned off the header display it's the same thing for the copyright information.

01:41.610 --> 01:43.250
Now it takes away that text.

01:43.260 --> 01:45.810
But you might be saying well what about the text that we added.

01:45.870 --> 01:48.540
Well we're going to have to go about that in a different way.

01:48.540 --> 01:54.510
So if we go back and we go to our widgets and this menu we can go to our footer widgets and this is

01:54.510 --> 01:55.820
where we can add our text.

01:55.890 --> 02:02.070
So if I say add widget text you could add any of these widgets and I suggest adding some of these to

02:02.070 --> 02:05.100
your footer if you want such as search.

02:05.160 --> 02:09.200
But I suppose recent posts are just some basic copyright tecs.

02:09.210 --> 02:18.300
We can just add a text block and then say copyright 2017 whatever year it is and your information.

02:18.410 --> 02:22.630
Now at the bottom we have our copyright information like we wanted.

02:22.760 --> 02:24.340
So it's Savon publish this

02:26.970 --> 02:32.850
another way to get to this is through your appearance widgets tab and then you have your footer widget.

02:32.910 --> 02:39.600
And now we see this text that we added and you can also add links and images and everything else like

02:39.600 --> 02:45.600
we did before with the sidebar widgets but do it with your footer if you want multiple columns of widgets

02:45.600 --> 02:50.830
you can do that to just for kicks and giggles let's add categories to put our widget to.

02:50.880 --> 02:56.960
Now let's just go to our home page and now we have our copyright information and our categories.

02:57.060 --> 02:57.930
Don't worry.

02:57.930 --> 03:03.780
This latest article is a little bit we'll be learning how to do that in the section on blogging later

03:03.780 --> 03:04.190
on.

03:04.320 --> 03:10.920
So that is a quick and easy way to add copyright information or to change the footer for this theme.

03:10.920 --> 03:16.290
Like I said if you are using another theme I don't want to be a broken record but you might have to

03:16.290 --> 03:18.080
do a little bit of research yourself.

03:18.090 --> 03:23.130
Just search for a remove footer and then the name of your theme and there should be some documentation

03:23.190 --> 03:24.960
on that that pops up on Google.

03:24.960 --> 03:28.040
Thanks so much for watching and we'll see you in a another lesson.
