I have read several articles on how to change the link and wording. The mistake I have made is that I have changed the text and removed the {{ powered_by_link }} within the Edit default theme content section. This means I can’t now find where the code is within the actual Edit code. When I search in the footer.liquid section of the code, I can’t seem to find it! I have replaced with new copy (before I realised I needed to change the link) and just can’t find it, even using the new copy/words that are now showing on the footer.
Can anyone advise how to find the code (I’m using Command 5 on a mac).
If you edited your theme footer template, you should be able to restore the previous version of it by rolling back theme code.Then you can edit it to display information that you need. However, for it to work and be visible you need to add the removed line within the Edit default theme content section.
Studio theme will have the following code on 340 line by default. You could also try by adding it back manually.
<small>{{ powered_by_link }}</small>
It would be great if you could let me know what you want to change within this phrase, and I’d love to help guide you.
Finally, If you don’t feel comfortable editing the template code yourself, you can always reach out to our Support team.
Our team may be able to customize this for you as you use Shopify free theme and if your store has enough complimentary design time left. You can reach out to our Contact Us page on this link.
Then log in to your store. It will allow us to verify you as the store owner securely. Once you have successfully logged in, you should be able to reach out to a Support Advisor and discuss the customization request as there are specific customizations supported.
Thank you so much for your help and reply on this.
I would be happy to edit the code if you are happy to guide me on the steps.
Thank you for highlighting where this line should be - I’ve had a look in the footer.liquid section line 340 but the line isn’t showing there to edit.
I will show you what I’d like to replace the Powered by Shopify copy and link with.
If you look at my site, you’ll see I’ve changed the text to:
Website designed and built by Georgina Palmer
However, the link goes to the shopify page. I would like to change the link and for it to go to www.google.co.uk (and then i will replace that url with my company page which I am building on shopify also this week).
I hope you can help me do this within the code. I would prefer to save our complimentary design time for something else ideally.
