Thanks 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)

Hello – 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:

No, 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).

Hi – 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:
