Copyright information at bottom of page
-
I wanted to change the copyright information at the bottom. I did pay for an upgraded theme and should be able to change the copyright info at the bottom.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
Do you mean the credit at the bottom of the page that says, “Blog at WordPress.com. | The InfoWay Theme.”?
That footer credit is required to be displayed according to our terms of service:
http://en.wordpress.com/tos/Note that even sites hosted through our VIP program, such as the TED blog, display a credit to WordPress.com in the footer.
Let me know if you have any additional questions about this.

Yes, I am referring to the credit. I had made a website at Weebly.com and was able to change that footer credit and add my name. I am surprised that I am not able to change that footer on a theme that I paid for. I can understand keeping the WordPress.com, but not the word “Blog”. If I would have known this I would not have purchased the theme or used WordPress. This should be passed forward as a suggestion to be able to remove or update this theme. I don’t like that my website is called a blog. I should be able to update credit, as example, “My Name”.WordPress.com

I’ll certainly pass this suggestion on to our team — thank you for the feedback!
You might also be interested in setting up a self-hosted WordPress site, rather than having your site hosted here at WordPress.com. That would give you complete control over the footer text. We have a comparison of self-hosted sites using the free software from WordPress.org and sites hosted here at WordPress.com if you’re interested: WordPress.com and WordPress.org
If you decide to go that route, please let me know. I can refund your purchases here at WordPress.com and you can move your site and move your domain to a new host.
