  Hi Guys,

  I’ve just upgraded to Premium and want to make my site look a bit more professional. Can anyone give me a few pointers to get started.
  First thing I want to do is replace the “wordpress” footer with my own.
  I’ve done this so far, which doesn’t work it:-

  /*
  Welcome to Custom CSS!

  To learn how this works, see http://wp.me/PEmnE-Bt
  */

  footer.entry-meta {
  visibility: hidden;
  }

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

  Hi there, if you are talking about the “The Twenty Twelve Theme. Blog at WordPress.com. ” footer, you are not allowed to hide the WordPress.com and theme footer credits per our Terms of Service (#11). Even the VIP sites here at WordPress.com (CNN, Time, etc.) are required to keep the footer credits. See the Frequently Asked Questions on the Custom Design support page for more information.

  You are allowed to restyle the footer credits to better fit with your design as long as they remain readable. You can also add text, like a copyright, to the footer credits. Here would be the CSS for adding your own text to the footer. I’ve included some other styling declarations for the new text which you can use and edit, or delete as you see fit.

  .site-info:before {
      content: "This is my added text";
      display: block;
      font-size: 120%;
      color: #cc0000;
  }
  footer[role="contentinfo"] a {
      text-decoration: none;
      color: #777;
  }

  The second rule makes the existing footer credit text a little lighter and takes away the underline so the added text will stand out more.

  Hi @akndsandhu, it looks like you are using WordPress but you are not hosted here at WordPress.com. For self-hosted WordPress sites such as yours, I would suggest asking for help in the WordPress.org Twenty Fourteen Support Forum at WordPress.org.

  For general questions on self-hosted WordPress.org installations, visit http://wordpress.org/support/.
