I am trying to add links inside the copyright text area. I want to add links to my terms and privacy pages after the copyright like this:
2016 Mysite.com. By using this site you are agreeing to the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.
This only sort of works, sometimes I get one of the links working and not the other, sometimes it outputs a giant text string into the footer copy and sometimes it removes part of the text. I assume you did not design the copyright text input area in the sub footer settings to accept links?
I feel like I almost have it working. Is there another way I should be writing it? Do I need to edit the footer php file?
Also, how do I center the whole copyright text area. I can center align the text with css but the whole block is still way over to the left side. How do I center align the whole footer text block?
Thanks
Hello,
In order to have links in the copyright section, you need to make sure you have the latest version of the theme: http://screencast.com/t/cveJAIDQb and then you can use html links inside the theme panel in the copyright area.
For the second part, this is the way the containers are set-up. The theme uses a span element for the footer which affects other parts of the theme as well. You will need custom modifications in order to edit the footer copyright.
Thank you!
I have version 6.6.4 installed and the html links are still not working in the footer.
I have also just update to the latest version 6.6.5.
I tried pasting the code in here but it’s not working even when I use the code tag so I am attaching a screenshot.
here is screen shot of the issue
the live footer is here: hwinsider.com
OK, I fixed it. Looks like the quotes were being added to the URL automatically on top of my quotes so I just removed the quotes from the url in the a href the code and it works fine now.
Uh…turns out that didn’t work. When I make other changes to the admin area and hit save, the links disappear from the footer. Any idea what is going on? Should I use single quotes for the URLs, or no quotes…or is there another way I should be doing it?
Thanks
Hi,
I have checked your website and saw that the links work as expected: http://screencast.com/t/VNSbtpejX0UG and http://screencast.com/t/HFLUWyA9YDs
Please let us know if you need further assistance in this matter.
Thank you!
Whenever I make a change in the admin panel and save the page, the links disappear. (See the site now).
So every time I make changes to anything in the admin I have to re-enter the footer code to get the links to show up again.
Hello,
I tested the copyright area again and the html does not get converted in any way. I could not recreate the issue. Please try to disable all your plugins except visual composer, clear your cache and reset cdn if you use it. There might be a plugin conflict which interferes with the copyright links. If the problem is still there afterwards, then please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-admin so we can take a look at this. Please also include a link to this topic so we can identify you.
Thank you!
