Is there a way to add to the footer text so that it includes additional information such as address and phone number next to the site name? I see the footer is built with php and I don’t know php at all. Maybe this is something I should add to my child theme? Would it be a functions.php? Or is there an easier way without diving into a new language? :/

If the only way is to add a .php file to my child theme, can you tell me what’s required as open and close tags? I think the WP Codex is very clear about child theme style.css but I’m still a little unclear about adding necessary elements to a functions.php file….maybe because I don’t know php 🙂

Thanks in advance for your help!

@amberatx: Best option if to upgrade to Simple Catch Pro theme there there is Footer Editor in Theme Options -> Theme Settings. So, just remove the text and change the text easily.

Otherwise, yes you have to create the child theme and do it. For Free theme we don’t recommend to change the footer text.

@tracypie: Yes, you can add from Footer Editor at “Appearance => Theme Options => Footer Editor”.
