  I need to add a copyright disclaimer to the footer of my website. I’ve tried a few different things and have tried looking at the code to do it myself, but I can’t seem to get it. Any help is appreciated!

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

  Okay I managed to get a little something in there using this.

  div.row:before {
  	content: "Copyright Pine Mountain Settlement School 2016 0a9";
  	display: block;
  }

  But, it’s kind “out of place” compared to the other footer text. So, if anyone could help with getting it located better that’d be great!

  It looks like you already have this figured out, you just have one extra backslash in there. If you delete that – so it shows as just 0a9 at the end – your copyright symbol will appear correctly.

  #footer div.row:before {
  	content: "Copyright Pine Mountain Settlement School 2016 a9";
  	display: block;
  }

  I realized I needed to add-in the footer ID, but I can’t figure out why my copyright symbol code keeps adding and extra slash. So, placing it better and that are now my issues.

  Well it’s not 100% figured out because it’s not positioned where I want and the backslash issue is bothering me. I’ll have it typed 0a9 and then save and then it’ll be a9 and shows 0a9 on the website.

  And I can’t type the backslash issue out :/

  I’ll type a single backslash. Then when I save it changes it to double backslash and shows a single backslash with the 00a9 on the page.

  HTML codes for special characters can sometimes be a bit of a pain. Try copying the following line out and paste it into the content declaration (I included the quote marks).
  "Copyright Pine Mountain Settlement School 2016 ©"
  Where do you want your copyright in the footer? I’d be more than happy to help get it positioned as you want it.

  Thanks sacred!

  #footer div.row:before {
  	content: "Copyright Pine Mountain Settlement School 2016 ©";
  	display: block;
  }

  So, that is now my code. If you look it’s about a 1/2 inch away from the WordPress and Theme footer notes. I’d just like it to be spaced the same as them.

  Try adding it to the div element one step inside the section you’re targeting now and it should sort the issue automatically:

  #footer .footer.left:before {
  	content: "Copyright Pine Mountain Settlement School 2016 ©";
  	display: block;
  }
