Remove ‘Proudly Powerd By WordPress’
I used to edit this using a FTP program as Filezilla. But nowadays you can edit this from the WordPress Admin it self.
Changing the footer.php
Warning: since you're editing a .php file, messing this up can cause your site to crash. So make sure you have a backup (in this case of the original footer.php) so you can restore it to the original state
In wp-admin you may go to appearance->editor-> under templates select your used template->click on footer.php
Replace the text (found after printf statment) as you like. Don’t forget also to change the link (found after esc_url) and the hover text (found afther esc_attr_e)
UPDATE:
If you have Jetpack installed and activated the Custom CSS option, this is an easy way to remove the site info section:
Add this to the Custom CSS (appearance -> edit CSS)
/*- remove proudly powered by wordpress -*/
.site-info {
display: none;
}
Enjoy.

Way cool! Some very valid points! I appreciate

also really good.
None of the other postings I've come across are like this one. You are able to tell much work went into this.
That is a good tip particularly to those fresh to the blogosphere.
Short but very precise information… Thanks for sharing this one.
