ParticipantI want to change the copyright date in the footer from 2019 to 2020 and I don’t see the option to edit the footer any more in Customize / Theme options. In your documentation it says that is where to change the footer.
The page I need help with: https://chickadeewebdesign.com

ParticipantHi – I saw that you updated the theme, but the problem remains. You can’t edit the footer in Theme Options or anywhere else. So I hard-coded a new function in functions.php as proposed by someone with the same problem who posted in WordPress plugin support:

KeymasterMaybe it’s just your browser chache issue. So, can you do hard refresh and check in. I just checkin your site https://chickadeewebdesign.com/ footer and it’s showing 2020.

ParticipantNo, like I said I hard-coded a new function at the end of functions.php to get that 2020 date to show up in the footer on https://chickadeewebdesign.com :
function catchkathmandu_footer_content() { echo ‘Copyright © 2020 Chickadee Web Design. All Rights Reserved.’; }
Now I have just deleted the new function from functions.php and the website shows 2019 again in the footer.
You need to just put back the option to set the footer text in the Theme Options in the Customizer as your documentation says.
(I refreshed the web cache using the WP Fastest Cache plugin, and also cleared the browser cache in both Chrome and Firefox).

KeymasterSorry, we are not able to get this issue in our system. Maybe it’s plugin issu. So, can you install this plugin “Transients Manager” https://wordpress.org/plugins/transients-manager/ and delete all transit and check in

Participant@chickadeesharon: Hello there,
The Footer Editor Option is not available in the free version of the theme. If you want edit the footer content from the customizer you will need to upgrade to pro. You can check out the additional-features available in pro version of the theme.Kind Regards,

ParticipantHello – Thanks for your reply. I installed the Transients Manager plugin as you suggested. I cleared all the transients in the plugin interface. Then I cleared the web cache using WP Fastest Cache plugin – Delete Cache plugin and all Minified CSS/JS. Then I cleared my browser cache. I reloaded the website. It still shows 2019 date. Then I went to look at the transients again in Transients Manager. I took a screen capture to show you. It does show the 2019 in one of you transients variables. You can see the screen capture here:

KeymasterThanks for reporting in detail with that screenshot. Now, I finally got the issue. I just fixed it and also set the update. Please update the theme and load the customizer then it will work fine.

ParticipantThanks for your attention. I would like to tell you that the problem is fixed but it isn’t. I updated to the new version of the theme – 4.0.2. I started the Customizer and changed something (tagline) and saved. The year is still 2019 and it is in the transient variable catchkathmandu_footer_content_new:
<div class=”copyright”>Copyright © 2019 <span>Chickadee Web Design</span> All Rights Reserved.</div><div class=”powered”>Catch Kathmandu by <span>Catch Themes</span></div>
It’s clearly still using the value 2019 that was in the database before you removed the ability to change the footer in the Customizer.
(I cleared browser cache as well in Chrome and Firefox)

ParticipantJust applied update to theme, still shows 2019 – are there further instructions?

Participant@lkvanz: Hello there,
Can you please post in your site URL so that I can look into the issue?Kind Regards,
SkandhaFebruary 5, 2020 at 1:32 pm #235173lkvanz
Participantjust checked again – ok now – thanks… perhaps a cache issue — others also work on our site and communication is sometimes lacking – we still like the theme – serves our purpose – have a nice day
