How To Change The Footer Content In Thesis Theme For WordPress

Thesis will never cease to amaze designers with its unparalleled ease of use. One of the few customizations that many people want is a custom footer. Unfortunately, there is no way to change the footer content in Thesis Options or Design Options. So, lucky for you, I can show you exactly how to accomplish your own custom footer.

1. Follow the first 5 steps of this post.
2. After all the text, space a line or two and stick in the following:

   remove_action('thesis_hook_footer', 'thesis_attribution');
   function my_custom_footer() {
   ?>
   Whatever you want to say goes here. Hint: use p tags.
   <?php
   }
   add_action('thesis_hook_footer', 'my_custom_footer');

Did you see how freaking easy that was? Let me quickly break down what you just did.

First, we removed the default content of the footer by putting this in custom_functions.php:

remove_action('thesis_hook_footer', 'thesis_attribution');

Second, we declared a new function that will determine the new footer content by adding this:

function my_custom_footer() {
?>
Whatever you want to say goes here.
<?php
}

Lastly, we told Thesis to put the new footer content into the footer by writing this:

add_action('thesis_hook_footer', 'my_custom_footer');

Using Thesis is the easiest and most effective way to start and maintain a website. Good luck and happy coding
