  We paid the $99.00 upgrade. I am trying to figure out how to modify the footer. I need to remove the theme name and the Blog by WordPress links.

  Please advise how

  Howdy,

  You’ll need to keep the attribution at the bottom of the page.

  It helps us to keep free features free, and give theme authors credit for their work. :-)

  I just got your response listed below: If we were using the free version I would agree. We purchased the upgrade because of the “no advertising” benefits. We also paid for a premium theme. Now your telling me we cant modify the footer????

  Hi there,

  Although the Custom Design Upgrade certainly grants you the capability to hide the credit from your site’s footer, you are not permitted to do so. Even our VIP bloggers are required to maintain the credit.

  This policy appears on the support doc:

  The No Ads upgrade prevents advertising from appearing on your blog, but it doesn’t hide the credit.

  Feel free to drop us a line if we can be of any further assistance.
