Getting rid of Powered by WordPress
Forums:
If you are using the TwentySeven theme in WordPress and you are looking to get rid of that pesky Powered By WordPress semantec blah,blah in your sidebar,
it secretly resides here:
Search down the file until you come to the section that mentions "Filter the Power by...."
Update the highlighted pieces with your own text and hit save.
/wp-includes/widgets/class-wp-widget-meta.php
Search down the file until you come to the section that mentions "Filter the Power by...."
Update the highlighted pieces with your own text and hit save.
/**
* Filters the "Powered by WordPress" text in the Meta widget.
*
* @since 3.6.0
* @since 4.9.0 Added the `$instance` parameter.
*
* @param string $title_text Default title text for the WordPress.org link.
* @param array $instance Array of settings for the current widget.
*/
echo apply_filters(
'widget_meta_poweredby',
sprintf(
'<li><a href ="%s" title="%s">%s</a></li>',
esc_url( __( 'https://247Coding.com/' ) ),
esc_attr__( '247Coding.com.' ),
_x( '247Coding.com', 'meta widget link text' )
),
$instance
);
wp_meta();
Then say goodbye to "Powered by WordPress, state-of-the-art semantic personal publishing platform", at least
until you do an update or update your theme.
You're welcome...
