[Resolved] Menu in Copyright-Footer

[Yannick]

Hi,
I would like to add a “terms of use” menu\link on the right side of the Copyright-Footer.
Any ideas how to do this?

Also I would like to choose the color of the text and the color when it’s hovered. This should be possible under “customise” > “colours” > “footer” once I am able to put a menu down there, or?

Thank you for your help 🙂

Hi Yannick,

You can add the required HTML directly into the Copyright text box in Customizer > Copyright if you are using the Copyright Add on or the GP Premium add ons. For example:

Copyright %copy% %current_year% <a href="http://yourdomain.com"> Your Site Name</a> | <a href="http://yourdomain.com/terms-and-conditions/">Terms and Conditions</a> | <a href="http://yourdomain.com/privacy-policy/">Privacy Policy</a>

If you are not using the add on(s), then you can do so with the following PHP:

add_action('after_setup_theme','generate_copyright_remove_default_message');
function generate_copyright_remove_default_message()
{
		
	remove_action( 'generate_credits', 'generate_add_footer_info' );
	remove_action( 'generate_copyright_line','generate_add_login_attribution' );
}

/**
 * Add the custom copyright
 * @since 0.1
 */
add_action('generate_credits','generate_copyright_add_custom_message');
function generate_copyright_add_custom_message()
{
?>
	Copyright &copy; <?php echo date("Y") ?> <a href="http://yourdomain.com"> Your Site Name</a> | <a href="http://yourdomain.com/terms-and-conditions/">Terms and Conditions</a> | <a href="http://yourdomain.com/privacy-policy/">Privacy Policy</a>
<?php
}

See this link for adding PHP:

Then as you say, you will be able to style the text color and hover color in Customize > Colors > Footer

Cheers!
