 * Hi,
 * can someone please provide me the code as it was in the footer.php of the catchbox
   theme? i wanted to edit the footer and deleted almost everything…. Now there 
   is a big mess in the footer.
 * I wanted to remove the ‘theme by wordpress’ etc. Anyone suggestions for that?
   Can it be solved by adding the widgets to the footer areas?
 * thanks in advance.
 * Rgds

 * You can replace the bad footer.php file by downloading a new copy of the theme
   to your local computer and then using FTP, replace just that file in your theme.
 * BTW, you should not be making any changes to theme files — but rather using a
   [child theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes). That way, your changes
   won’t be overwritten and lost when the theme is updated.

 * hi,
 * I am working locally and ofcourse (sorry….) haven’t made a child-theme. Thus,
   downloading the ‘new’ theme will overwrite my site…
 * I know, I should do that, making a child-theme, but haven’t done that.
 * In the mean time, perhaps someone just has the code of the footer.php for me?

 * >  replace just that file in your theme.
 * Not the entire theme — just footer.php — from a copy downloaded to your computer—
   not via your WP installation.
 * Download from here:

 * And yes, do the child theme now. You are creating much more work and grief for
   yourself down the road — really, you don’t want to go there :).

 * thanks a lot. It was so easy… Could of tought of it myself. Thanks again.
 * I will create a child-theme. I know in how much trouble I will get.
 * Do you perhaps have a suggestion how I can change the current footer.php (Thus,
   my own firm as the copyrightholder, no wordpress-themes and thanks?
 * thanks

 * [@iris17](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iris17/): For footer copyright,
   it is not a good practice to remove it for free theme. You should only edit those
   if you are using premium or pro version of the theme.
 * To do that just upgrade to Catch Box Pro and you will find footer editor box 
   in your Theme Options [http://catchthemes.com/themes/catch-box-pro/](http://catchthemes.com/themes/catch-box-pro/)
