Hi Bill,

I would like to remove the top bar (where you can add social media), where can I do this?

and

I would like to add a hyperlink in the footer text, seem not to be able to do this in Theme Options.

Thank you again for you great support!

Hello Evelien,

I hope you day is starting off well. Let’s find answers for your questions.

1) You can hide the header bar. Go to the Theme Options page and choose the Styling tab. Near the top of that tab you’ll find an option to disable the header bar. Check that, save your changes and that should hide it for you.

2) The theme options will filter out HTML for security reasons. Because of that you’ll need to edit the footer directly to add a link. Here’s how to do that:

1. Go to the Appearance section in your WordPress control panel and select Edit.
2. From the list of files on your right, choose sidebar.php
3. Find this section:

   
   			<?php if(of_get_option('footer_text', $single = true) != ""){ ?>
   			
   				<p><?php echo of_get_option('footer_text'); ?></p>
   				
   			<?php } else { ?>
   			
   				<p><a href="<?php echo home_url(); ?>/">&copy; <?php echo date('Y'); ?> <?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a><br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.organizedthemes.com" title="Another great theme from Organized Themes">Organized Themes</a></p> 
   			
   			<?php } ?>
   
   

   and replace it with the text you’d like to have wrapped in a link. It would look something like this:

   
   <p><a href="http://yourlink.com">Link Text</a></p>
   

   where you replace the http://yourlink.com with the URL you’d like to link to and the Link Text with the text you’d like to have as your link.

4. Save your changes.

See if that won’d do the trick for you. If you have any questions or trouble, let me know.

Have a great day,
Bill
