  Hello –

  I am new to WordPress, just to say that up front.

  I am looking to update or remove the extended footer section on my site that shows currently “Blog at WordPress.com | The Hemingway Rewritten Theme”

  Could someone assist me on how to do that?

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

  Hi stalphonsusstjosephoffice,

  You won’t be able to remove that information from your WordPress.com site.

  
  May I remove the Admin Bar, credit links such as ‘Blog at WordPress.com’, theme, font, or toolbar links?

  All WordPress.com bloggers are required to maintain the Admin Bar (the dark bar that appears at the top of WordPress.com sites when logged in) as well as credit links in the footer, even our VIP bloggers. Please do not hide or alter text or links for the footer credits or the toolbar. Modifying the style of the footer text (i.e. colors and font size) is fine as long as it’s still readable. Using CSS, you can also add content like a copyright notice to the existing footer. If you would like to do that, you can ask in the CSS Customization forum and Staff or our community volunteers would be happy to help you do that.
