Hello, I just switched to Toujours and would like to add a copyright statement at the bottom of the page. Could you help me with the CSS code to show this? I have the upgrade to do this.
I want to say something like “Copyright © 2016 Whispering Woods Gallery – All Rights Reserved.”
Many thanks!

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
Try the following CSS:

.site-info:before{
content: “Copyright © 2016 Whispering Woods Gallery – All Rights Reserved “;
}

This works very well. Thank you CarlaDoria!
Is there a way put that on two separate lines?

We can do that. Add display: block; to the rule @carladoria gave above so it looks like this.
```
.site-info::before {
    content: "Copyright © 2016 Whispering Woods Gallery - All Rights Reserved ";
    display: block;
}
```

Hi @carroyav02, since you are using a different theme, and since CSS is generally theme specific, can I ask you to create a new thread in the CSS Forum? Many thanks in advance.

I just looked at your code, and it should have worked, but apparently there was something in the text string that the web didn’t like. Remove what you have and copy/paste the following into your custom CSS.
```
.site-info::before {
    content: "Copyright © 2016 Carlos Arroyave - ITISALLMATH - All Rights Reserved";
    display: block;
    color: #000;
    font-size: 120%;
    font-weight: bold;
}
```

Thank you very much thesacredpath,
my code did not work because I created it in pages and copied -pasted it into the CSS area. Evidently there were some formatting data that was crating the problem. I retyped the same code directly and it worked.

Thank you again.

Ah yes, that would do it. Glad you figured it out, and you are welcome.

You can also do this by putting the text widget at the bottom. Is there some advantage that I’m not aware of by putting it in the css?

Absolutely you can add it to a text widget in a footer widget area, but not all themes have a footer widget area, and many want the copyright down in the area where the existing footer credits are rather than up with the footer widgets.
