    Hi,
    I've been trying to change the copyright footer text, and I'm nowhere close to any solution..
    So, here are all the issues I've been facing:
    My theme is called Divine, which is set up as a child theme, while genesis shows up as the parent theme. Is that order correct? Bare with me, I am a beginner, and trying to make sense of all of that..

    1. When I look at the Genesis Editor css coding, in this case the footer part, it seems to be missing all the details that I need. Basically it does not reflect what I do have set up in the footer.
    Here is wat it shows:
    <?php
    /**
    * Genesis Framework.
    *
    * WARNING: This file is part of the core Genesis Framework. DO NOT edit this file under any circumstances.
    * Please do all modifications in the form of a child theme.
    *
    * @package Genesis\Templates
    * @author StudioPress
    * @license GPL-2.0+
    * @link http://my.studiopress.com/themes/genesis/
    */

    genesis_structural_wrap( 'site-inner', 'close' );
    echo '</div>'; //* end .site-inner or #inner

    do_action( 'genesis_before_footer' );
    do_action( 'genesis_footer' );
    do_action( 'genesis_after_footer' );

    echo '</div>'; //* end .site-container or #wrap

    do_action( 'genesis_after' );
    wp_footer(); //* we need this for plugins
    ?>
    </body>
    </html>

    This can't be it, right? Not even a hint of the copyright text that is currently on my blog. If I right-click the copyright text on my blog though, a screen opens up on the right side with ALL the details that I actually need, but those are not editable. How come the parent theme doesn't reflect what's on my blog pages/posts??

    2. I downloaded winscp to add a new footer file into the child theme, but that doesn't work either. When I open up winscp, the right panel is empty and shows only "root". How do I get it to access my blog's details/folders??

    Hope all of this makes sense.. Looking forward to some help!
    Thanks in advance
    Mary

    Don't change anything in Genesis framework.

    The easiest way to change the footer credits is to install and use Genesis Simple Edits plugin

    Thanks! I did upload the plugin, and I could easily add my own copyright text to the footer, BUT the old copryright text (that came with the theme) is still there. So basically I'd have 2 copyright lines on top of eachother.
    Why is that? I'm going nuts...

    I finally found the corresponding css coding in the editor under 'functions.php':

    //* Customize the credits
    add_filter('genesis_footer_creds_text', 'custom_footer_creds_text');
    function custom_footer_creds_text() {
    echo '<div class="creds"><p>';
    echo 'Copyright © ';
    echo date('Y');
    echo ' · Divine theme by Restored 316';
    echo '</p></div>';

    Can someone please tell me (detailed..for beginners please..) what exactly I need to replace, if I want to add:
    © 2011 Mediterranealicious (middledot) All Rights Reserved

    Thanks!!

    I forgot to mention... Or what do I have to delete from above css coding in order to simply delete that copyright text. That might help as well, as I can use genesis simple edits to add mine, right?

    You can delete all of that code above from functions.php.

    You can delete the code in functions.php or change it, without using simple edits, to what you want by replacing the line:

    echo ‘ · Divine theme by Restored 316‘;

    With: echo ‘ · Mediterranealicious · All Rights Reserved‘;
