It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress. ![](https://ps.w.org/footer-credits/assets/icon.svg?rev=1547781) # Footer Credits By [Cedaro](https://profiles.wordpress.org/cedaro/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/footer-credits.1.1.0.zip) * [Details](https://gax.wordpress.org/plugins/footer-credits/#description) * [Reviews](https://gax.wordpress.org/plugins/footer-credits/#reviews) * [Installation](https://gax.wordpress.org/plugins/footer-credits/#installation) * [Development](https://gax.wordpress.org/plugins/footer-credits/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/footer-credits/) ## Description **This plugin only works with themes that have added support.** Footer Credits provides a standardized method for making theme credits editable. It registers a new section and fields in the Customizer for modifying the credits and choosing how they appear. Theme authors, let your users and customers know your theme supports the Footer Credits plugin. If your theme doesn’t work with Footer Credits, ask the developer to add support. Instructions can be find in the [Other Notes](https://wordpress.org/plugins/footer-credits/other_notes/) section. ### Additional Resources * [Write a review](https://wordpress.org/support/view/plugin-reviews/footer-credits#postform) * [Contribute on GitHub](https://github.com/cedaro/footer-credits) * [Follow @cedaroco](https://twitter.com/cedaroco) * [Visit Cedaro](https://www.cedaro.com/?utm_source=wordpress.org&utm_medium=link&utm_content=footer-credits-readme&utm_campaign=plugins) ### Notes If you’re a theme author and want to add support, all you need to do is pass the default credits string through a `footer_credits` filter. ### 1. Create a template tag with the default credits and filter: ``` Hyalite' ); echo apply_filters( 'footer_credits', $text ); } endif; ``` ### 2. Then call the template tag somewhere in the footer of the theme: ``` ``` ## Screenshots [⌊The Customizer section and fields.⌉⌊The Customizer section and fields.⌉[ The Customizer section and fields. ## Installation Install like most other plugins.
