Hi,
I have the pro version of clean journal and cannot figure out how I initially edited the copyright when I built it! I have a child theme, but am not using a custom footer.php…yet I somehow added my own links to it.

Customize > Theme Options does not have a footer editor. It’s not in my menus or widgets. Any idea?

Thanks for the support!

@sezg: Hello there. I checked your site and you seem to have activated Clean Journal Free Theme that is why you don’t have Customize => Theme Options => Footer Editor Option which is only available in Pro version of the theme.

Please make sure you have Clean Journal Pro theme.
Kind Regards,
Skandha

Oh, well that explains it. 🙂 So you’re saying that the content I currently have in my footer is auto-generated?

@sezg: I am not saying the footer is auto-generated. What I mean to say is you have a Footer Editor Option in the Pro version of the theme whereas the option is not available in Free version so you will have to create a child theme and make some customization to edit the footer.

You say you have Clean Journal Pro theme but I checked your site and Clean Journal Free theme is activated.
I hope I made sense! 🙂
Let me know if this solves your issue.
Kind Regards,
Skandha

Thanks. My question isn’t clear — where is the code I can edit? I have a child theme already, but the clean-journal footer.php file doesn’t have the code that is pulling the copyright, site name, design credit, etc. Happy to code the changes, just don’t know where <?php wp_footer(); ?> is. Thanks!

Appearance
Editor
(right side click on:) inc
core.php

search for: copyright

you’ll find the code.

@mossifer: Thank you for the reply but I suggest you not make changes to core theme files directly without creating a child theme as all your changes will get deleted when you update the theme. So always creating a child theme to be on the safe side.

@sezg: Sorry for the late reply. To edit the footer first you will need to create a child theme. If you do not know how to create a child theme you can use Generate Child Theme Plugin. Then Go to => Child Theme Folder => functions.php and the following code. You can make the necessary changes to the following Code customize the footer.

function clean_journal_get_content() {
	$theme_data = wp_get_theme();

	$clean_journal_content['left'] 	= sprintf( _x( 'Copyright © %1$s %2$s. All Rights Reserved. %3$s', '1: Year, 2: Site Title with home URL 3: Privacy Policy Link
', 'clean-journal' ), esc_attr( date_i18n( __( 'Y', 'clean-journal' ) ) ), '<a href="'. esc_url( home_url( '/' ) ) .'">'. esc_attr( get_bloginfo( 'name', 'display' ) ) . '</a>', get_the_privacy_policy_link() );

	$clean_journal_content['right']	= esc_attr( $theme_data->get( 'Name') ) . '&nbsp;' . __( 'by', 'clean-journal' ). '&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="'. esc_url( $theme_data->get( 'AuthorURI' ) ) .'">'. esc_attr( $theme_data->get( 'Author' ) ) .'</a>';

	return apply_filters( 'clean_journal_get_content', $clean_journal_content );
}

Let me know if this helps you out.
Kind Regards,
Skandha
