Beautiful site !

According to what sayed Leo in a previous post, you can take Wordpress theme credit off in the footer .

You can also make the Image Categories menu as non clickable and place your logo in the header

Hi Chris, do you have details on how to remove the wordpress from the footer?

Hi Tinny,

You just have to go there :
admin area/ Symbiostock/ Settings/ Credit links and select Wordpress / Theme credit OFF 

I want to keep Leo and get rid of Wordpress so that does not quite work for me

Hmm, in fact you're right.
It seems we can't suppress wordpress credit and keep Leo link

You can, you have to open footer.php and make the change. But every time you upgrade the theme, you have to reload your footer.php file. I think someone said there is another way to do it in a functions file, but i didnt want to mess around with that.

Install the child theme and you can customize anything,
main theme updates won't remove your changes.

There is only a single empty CSS file and single functions.php

You may change CSS styles there to change the look
or add some code to functions.php if you know how

If you want to change another template file from the main theme just copy it to your child theme folder and change

There is nothing in the footer that mentions wordpress, I did find it in another file but there was so much code surrounding it that I was not going to even try it, I know the theory, it is putting it into practice that is the problem.  If anyone can be precise - which file and which wording to remove so that Leo shows up but wordpress is removed it would be much appreciated.

Try with CSS

div.footer_info div.muted a:first-child,
div.footer_info span.sep {
    display:none;
    }

Thanks plrang but that did not work.

I think it is within functions.php and I have tried editing it - a few times - but I always break my site and it goes to white screen

weird.. it works for me, where did you put that css piece?

As for functions - you would loose it after the theme upgrade and overriding it in the child theme is not worth the hassle. Leo will do it in a second

Tinny I've checked your child CSS and you got there some wrong comments closings    */ /*

should be like /*  commented part */

Starting from the line with [Button First Child]

*/--------------------
Button First Child
-----------------------/*

Also at the bottom there are some issues - check those comments

I edited it locally, then added my code and it worked great

plrang I don't know css but nested in div footer info there is the div class  small with the write and link to wordpress. Maybe can be edited..

Sure it can be edited, but that CSS I posted WORKS OK.

You may edit [footer.php]

and remove   <?php symbiostock_website_copyright(); ?>       

and add instead "Theme: SYMBIOSTOCK by Leo Blanchette"
or anything you want (it's best to do it in the Child Theme otherwise it will disappear after the SY Theme upgrade)

OR at last you can edit functions.php - but two above are enough

Prlang - thank you            I now have Leo but not Wordpress

I have edited it and corrected the */'s  - wonder what else I have mucked up 

For those that don't want to mess around with code, I believe Leo said that he will be removing the wordpress link in a future update.

The solution Prlang supplied did not mess with any code, just add the few lines into your child theme css and if you don't have any errors in it (as I did ) then it works

one problem less Tinny
