 * Hi,
 * If you mean that if you want to use the old footer and header builder in the 
   backend, here’s a code snippet you can use:
 * `$modules = get_option('sydney-modules'); 
   $modules['hf-builder'] = false; update_option('
   sydney-modules', $modules);
 * You can use the Code Snippets plugin to run this code. You only need to run it
   once, so you can delete it after the header/footer is updated. Here’s a detailed
   guide on adding code snippets: [https://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-easily-add-custom-code-in-wordpress-without-breaking-your-site/](https://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-easily-add-custom-code-in-wordpress-without-breaking-your-site/)
