How Do I Change the Footer Credits in WordPress?

Changing the footer credits in WordPress is a fairly simple process. To begin, open your WordPress site in your web browser.

Next, locate the header file located at wp-content/themes/yourtheme/header.php. Locate the following line of code and change the values to reflect the name of the person or organization you would like to receive credit for the content on your website:.

Credits

Created by My Site

To change the name of the person or organization receiving credit, you will need to replace “My Site” with the name of the person or organization you would like to credit. Once you have replaced the text, save the file and reload your website.

Your new footer credits will be displayed.
