In this tutorial I'll show you how you can permanently change your free GeneratePress theme footer from this:

This is just an example. Simply adding some php code to your themes function php and updating it, which I'll give you later in the tutorial, you can change your foooter to whatever is relevant to your website.

Just a few Do's and Don't's before we continue:

Do make sure your Copyright Footer Test is correct before copying and pasting into the theme;s functions php.

Don't try to correct any mistakes in the Copyright Footer Text once pasted into the theme;s function php. This will only result in a "nonce_failure" when updated. This is a built-in security mode in WordPress to prevent hackers from taking over a website remotely.

Do save the updated php code somewhere safe, preferably on a external disk drive or similar. This is needed, as if the theme is updated, you will have to reinsert the code into the updated theme.

Unless you have a Child Theme, this also applies to any changes you have made in Additional CSS.
