How to remove 'powered by Shopify' from the Dawn theme?

Topic summary

Main issue: Remove the “Powered by Shopify” text from the Dawn theme footer.

Proposed solutions:

  • CSS hide: Add a rule at the bottom of section-footer.css to hide the second copyright element: .copyright__content:nth-child(2) { display: none; }. This visually removes the text without altering theme content.
  • Language editor removal: Go to Online Store > Themes > Actions > Edit Languages, search “Powered by Shopify,” replace the faded text with a space, then save. This removes the text at the source across the theme.
  • Direct code removal: Share the footer file code to delete the text permanently within the template, rather than just hiding it.

Notes:

  • The CSS snippet and a screenshot of the language editor steps are provided; both are central to implementing the fixes.
  • CSS is a styling method that hides elements; the language editor changes the text content, which is more robust and theme-wide.

Status: Multiple workable methods offered; no confirmation from the original poster on which was used. Discussion appears open without a final resolution.

You could try adding this rule to the bottom of the section-footer.css file. It should hide it from the footer section.

.copyright__content:nth-child(2) {
  display: none;
}

you can hide it using the CSS command given by @Nick_Marketing or you can share the code of the footer file here so that this can be deleted permanently from theme

Hi @Zakariatheguy

You can remove this text by editing your theme languages:

  • From Online Store > Themes > Actions > Edit Languages
    Type in Powered By Shopify into the search field.
  • Remove the faded Powered by Shopify text by entering a space.
  • Hit Save

Hope this helps.
