Simple Wordpress Question regarding Footer Link
-
I have a client with a site that has the company that built their website's link in the footer. How can I remove this? I am pretty proficient with Wordpress but I am drawing a blank. The site is www.northatlantacleaning.com
Thanks and I do extend the courtesy of awarding 'Best Answer' and thumbs up etc to good responses.

It could be a footer widget. If you go to the Appearance| Widgets section, you may a footer widget section--look in there for your code. It may also be in the settings section of your theme's options--be sure to look through that section too.
-
In genesis framework you edit the footer in functions.php
You could Google something like "Studiopress footer code snippet" or check at studiopress.com in the menu under Ressources > Code Snippets.
[Update]
Finally at a real computer
Snippets are here: http://my.studiopress.com/snippets/footer/#custom-footer
Hope this solves your problem!

I tried to PM you and it isn't letting me. What is your username? I tried your name and going to your profile and clicking private message etc. PM me and Ill respond. thank you very much.

The images below are what I see in the "editor"... I don't see the tech-advocates url anywhere...
-
Jimmy, private message me with a screen grab of your footer.php file so i can see if i can find it.
-
I looked in the editor in the main theme and the child theme. I used control f to search for it and didn't find their link. Any other possibilities?
-
I don't see anything odd. To me it looks to be located in the footer file. Go appeance/editor/footer.php look for that snippet of code and delete. It also looks to me to be the only bit of html in the footer. Don't forget to update your file afterwards.
-
This is what I get when I highlight:
Copyright 2013 · All Rights Reserved · Website by
I don't see anything odd there...
the site is http://www.northatlantacleaning.com if you can take a glance and see if you see anything odd??
-
Highlight the portion of the footer you want to remove, right click the highlighted portion and "inspect elements". This will tell you exactly what the code for that snippet is. Hope that helps.
-
Is there any way to tell if it's encrypted before doing it? From the website source?
-
There is a slight chance that the footer link is encrypted and removing it will break the formatting of the theme. Just a heads up, if you see that happen you'll need to do a little bit of Googling and you will find the solution, it's only slightly tricky if you know programming.
-
Yes that is correct. Also, when you remove it, don't forget to update the file, simple but people tend to forget.
-
When in Wordpress, click on "Appearance", "Editor", and you'll likely find "Footer" in the right column. I would guess that is where they included it.

We all know that website load speed is more important than ever. While I love the look and feel of parallax and Wordpress, I want to do everything I can to keep the load speed down. I see a lot of conflicting information regarding web hosting services, CDN services and other service (Cloudflare for example).

My site build in HTML has been badly hit this recent update and I have been toying on the idea of changing it to Wordpress
My site build in HTML has been badly hit this recent update and I have been toying on the idea of changing it to Wordpress. Would this help in my rankings? It seems the hit came only that last 2-4 days when business become much quieter. Frankly i have no idea on why the site fell in ranking all of a sudden. Been comparing to competitors and even a friend in the same industry and nothing makes sense so far (link profile, DA, PA etc) This site has been ranking well for 3 years prior to this. 2. My site has loads of content and visitors arrive from various landpages. But by changing it wordpress, the url of most of them would probably change. What should i do? 301 redirect all of them or is there a better method?

This is not a question but a comment
My website www.kids-iq-tests.com is mainly focused on articles; however, I have noticed that after adding a few images of celebrities, I have gained a lot of traffic from image searches from Google. My point is that by adding images of popular celebrities to an article, you can gain a substantial amount of traffic. give it a try and see if you can gain traffic from image searches.
