Settin copyright symbol in front of year in footer

[Alfredo Jahn]

I see where I can add the text that goes between “All rights reserved. 2015” and “All rights reserved.”
Is there a way to change the whole line? For example can I say:

(c) 2015 My name goes here. All rights reserved ?

where (c) is the copyright symbol?

Thanks

Hi Alfredo,
You can do this by using the customize. On Customize go to-> Basic Settings->Your Copyright Name, And all details there.
In Addition, we noticed that you need copyright symbol ahead of year and only one All Right Reserved Text. So, you need to edit the footer.php. on footer.php line no:33 you can get the code.

 
 . 

and replace the code with the following

Thanks.

Modifying the php. Does that require I use a child theme? Because I didn’t.
If so, Will I just need to remember to make this same change after I update the theme in the future?

Thanks

Hi Alfredo,
Yes you are right. You are highly recommended to use the child theme, but if you did not use child theme you should remember it at the time of updating.

Thanks.

Yeah, unfortunately, I jumped ahead and create the site before reading and understanding the “child theme” stuff. Oh well. This would by my only change. It would be nice if there was a migration tool to move my changes from the main theme to a child theme…

Sorry, I’m a little confused. You mention going to Basic Settings->Your Copyright Name. I already have “Andreas Ian Jahn” there (the copyright holder). I don’t see any more “details” there. Just a place for the name.

Your next suggestion… Are you saying I REPLACE the top section on line 33 with the single line you suggested? Where is the “All rights reserved” and where is the copyright symbol? Am I missing something?

Thanks

Hi Alfredo,
Yes replace the code with the single line. After that you will be able to put the whole thing from the customizer i.e all right reserved and copyright symbol.
The code for copyright symbol is ©

Thanks.
