I’ve tried to simply change the copyright date in the backend but keep getting “Something went wrong. Your change may not have been saved. Please try again. There is also a chance that you may need to manually fix and upload the file over http://FTP.”

I then added the code snippet, but it doesn’t appear to make any changes – is this because the code already exists in the Theme Functions? I can’t edit and save my changes without FTP setup so I’m not certain if it’s overriding the snippet.

Also, I have the notice for new versions of Directory Starter and Supreme Directory to update. Since this is my first time, I just want to make sure I’m understanding this correctly: any customizations made in Supreme Directory should be unaffected as it’s a child theme, correct?

Thanks!

I’ll post login credentials separately.

Hi James,

You already have the code in the Supreme functions.php so that is why u cant add it as a snippet. You just need to change the year there, i tried on your site but the wp editor keeps reverting the changes, its likely you will have to do this via FTP.

Thanks,

Stiofan

Thanks, Stiofan. I think Kor was going to check on the other issue to makes sure everything was good to go before I proceeded with updating the themes.

Hello!

Supreme Directory Child should be customized with Code Snippets because the whole theme will be overwritten on automatic update, including the functions.php file.

The Snippet for Altering the Footer for Directory Starter and Supreme Directory Child themes has been updated along with the latest release of the themes and can be found here:
https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/faqs/how-do-i-change-the-footer-text-in-supreme/

Be sure that you have only added the snippet once, and that older version are removed.

Also be sure to check out all the new Directory Starter and Supreme Directory features in Customizer!

If you are new to Snippets, check out https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/customizing-your-style/

Let us know if you have any additional questions
