Greetings to all!

I have successfully installed the Colibri theme and customized it to my liking. However, I am currently facing an issue related to the footer section of the theme.

I have attempted two methods to remove the unwanted fragment from the footer section without any success. Firstly, I tried deleting the specific fragment in the files, which ultimately resulted in the entire theme being removed. Secondly, I tried using the RemoveFooterCredit plugin, but unfortunately, it removed the desired fragment along with the entire theme.

I am seeking advice and guidance on how to efficiently remove the footer from the Colibri theme without losing any vital information. Does anyone have any solutions or suggestions that they can offer? Furthermore, what are some other methods that can be used to remove unnecessary content from the footer section of a WordPress theme?

If you search on Google with the query "how to remove wp copyright", numerous articles providing effective methods can be found. It is important to note that copyright information is often not hardcoded, which makes file editing unnecessary in most cases.

In addition to the mentioned search query, there are also various WordPress plugins available that can help remove unwanted content from WP themes, including copyright information. However, before making any changes, it is always advised to create a backup of the website to avoid any potential mishaps.

So it's kind of a paid theme, right?
And there is no way to edit this footer.
Maybe only through functions there something to come up with, but it is necessary to look at the theme itself.

All of the articles I've come across end up leading to the topic "going off".
That's why I'm asking here if anyone has encountered this problem.

Yeah, that's right, there's a paid version and a free version.
I have the free one and that would be okay, except the footer bothers me ;D

I can hardly imagine such a situation. Well, as an option - add css, hiding block.
It's true, such actions lead to license violation... but who ever stopped it...
It's really enough to hide via CSS and that's it.

In the inc folder (template-functions.php) find the function colibriwp_theme_print_footer_copyright and get creative. There are more functions below...))

In general, what are you racking your brains with this copyright on Colibri. Put a Kadence or Blocksy theme. The free functionality will pleasantly surprise you, and the most important, they delete the copyright with one click.

Ctrl+Shift+I in your browser. The "inspector" window will appear.
You press the selection icon and poke in the footer area and see the name of its class.
Open the theme settings and type in something like (almost anyone has this option):
.name_class_footer_what_show_inspector {
    display:none;
}
You don't need to edit the theme itself, because the next time you update it, it'll all go to hell.
If you really want to change something, but you need to create child theme and edit it.

Is it overly complicated to request a programmer to remove the function from the theme?

Instead of using creative workarounds, the topic should be corrected to eliminate any unwanted features. In some cases, the topic starter may not take issue with the text itself, but rather, the outgoing link that is hidden from visitors.

It is important to keep topics up to date, even though some may have not been updated in over 17 years. One can update an older topic by creating a simple text file to record all changes made to the topic. Alternatively, content can be corrected on the fly using ob_start/ob_end_clean if needed.

For those who require further assistance, this webpage provides helpful information on child themes.

In my opinion, a mention in the footer of the developer - it's not a problem, and to compensate the efforts of the developer to develop the theme, a kind of substitute for the free use of the product of another's work.

Change the theme better, Colibri is not the most "advanced" of the free ones, there are much better. And the editor of this topic - in general, the free version brings more harm than good.

Changed the theme to another, less problematic.
Now the dilemma, both Kadence and Blocksy, both good, both thoroughly developed.
Now mastering.  ;)
Thanks for the tips!
