Hello,

I am posting this in Web Tools forum as there is no forum for the plugin I’m referring to .

I recently used Generate Child Theme to create a child of Catch Base. The plugin automatically creates a link at the bottom of the theme with my name (the creator) in an anchor tag. The url for the anchor tag is the website I’ve built but I would like to change that url to a different destination. How would I do that?

Thank you,
Caustin

@caustin: For this Go to => Child Theme Folder => style.css => After Author: add Author URI: #link with the link where you what it to be redirected.

Let me know if this is what you want!
Kind Regards,
Skandha

@skandha,

Initially I tried adding Theme URI:, then I tried your suggestion Author URI:, then I moved it under the Author: declaration and none of those have worked. I have disabled the caching plugin, cleared browser cache, and tested in a different browser. The link reflects whatever page I’m on.

I have also tested by changing the Author:name and Theme:name declarations in the style.css file and none of those changes are reflected in the footer information when the page is rendered in a browser.

Thanks for your help,
caustin

Here is what style.css looks like:

/*
Theme Name: Catch Base Caustic
Author: Christopher L. Austin
Author URI: https://www.austinwelch.com/
Description: Customization for client
Version: 1.0
Template: catch-base

This is the child theme for Catch Base theme, generated with Generate Child Theme plugin by catchthemes.

(optional values you can add: Theme URI, Author URI, License, License URI, Tags, Text Domain)
*/

Okay…. sooooo….. nevermind. It appears to be working now. Perhaps the cache didn’t clear as I thought it had.

Thanks again Catch People!
