  Hi,

  I need to add a disclaimer to each page of my blog and I want it to be in an unobtrusive location. So, I’m thinking the footer would be the best place. I’m using the theme Ecto, and I really like it, but it doesn’t have the option for a footer widget. I’m told that I can use CSS to add the disclaimer to the footer, but I have no clue where to start. Can anyone help? Thanks!

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

  Hi magistrawest

  To add your disclaimer text to the footer you could try something like this.

  .blog-info:after {
      content: "your disclaimer text";
  }

  To add custom CSS

  Select Appearance > Customize > CSS from your Admin Dashboard and enter the custom CSS there.

  You need to be on the WordPress.com Premium Plan for custom CSS to save.

  Hi anageorginab

  You are not permitted to remove the footer from your page.

  All WordPress.com users are required to maintain the credit links, even the 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.
