I’ve deleted the code and also the theme language settings but powered by Shopify is still there. Any help would be much appreciated!
Topic summary
A user removed the “Powered by Shopify” text from their theme code and language settings, but it still appears in the footer.
Suggested Solutions:
- Check theme settings in the footer or global settings sections, as this is often a simple toggle option
- Search existing Shopify community threads for theme-specific solutions
- Navigate to Online Store → Themes → “…” → Edit default theme content
- Filter for “powered” to locate the message under Links or Checkout & System sections
- Clear the field by clicking it and pressing spacebar, or replace with custom text
- For unlaunched stores, also check the “Powered by Shopify HTML” field under the Password page section
- Verify no residual “Powered by Shopify” text remains on individual Pages in Shopify admin
The discussion includes step-by-step screenshots showing the exact navigation path through Shopify’s theme editor to locate and remove the footer text.
Hi @JordanChatterley double check that this is just a setting in the themes setttings.
Either in the footer or the global settings.
Or just search for the theme name + problem to solve most simple things it’s that easy:
e.g. Search results for 'powered by shopify' - Shopify Community
If you still can’t figure it out you can always reach out to me for theme customization services.
@JordanChatterley can you please share this page link?
click online store → themes → click “…” → Edit default theme content.
Go to the Powered by Shopify message. You have two options for doing this:
-
If you’ve never changed the footer text before, type powered into the “Filter items” box to display the “Powered by Shopify” message under Links, as well as anywhere else it appears on your store.
-
If you have modified the Powered by Shopify message in the footer before, click the three-dot menu and select Checkout & System. You’ll then see “Powered by Shopify” in the Links section, and anywhere else it appears
**
Click the field and press the Spacebar.** Doing this under Links removes “Powered by Shopify” from the field. Alternatively, you can replace the Powered by Shopify footer with your preferred text.
-
If you haven’t launched your online store yet, you’ll also see Powered by Shopify in the “Powered by Shopify HTML” field under “Password page.” You can click that field and press the spacebar if you don’t want Powered by Shopify to appear on your “Opening Soon” page. This field also accepts HTML tags.
Maybe there exist Powered by Shopify text contents on some pages still. You can also check the Pages from Shopify admin and delete the rest of them. Then refresh page and check again, this should be fine.
