How do I get rid of or change the footer in my child theme?

1 Views

I want to remove the default theme name and “powered by WP” text in the footer of every page. I’ve created a child theme to hold all my customizations from the original theme so that my customizations won’t be obliterated when the original theme is updated.

Where can I change the text that is generated into the “colophon” div?

    1. Copy the footer.php file from the parent theme folder to your child theme folder.
    2. Edit your child theme footer.php.
    3. Remove the php script and html markup inside the <div id="colophon"> and replace it with whatever script or html you want.
