  I have a WordPress.com premium upgrade. I don’t want to remove the WordPress info from the footer, but is it possible to rearrange it?

  I’d like it to read more like “The Sela Theme Powered by WordPress.com | Customized by Urban Quark”

  My goal (and business) is to show people they can have a great WordPress.com website customized for them. Thanks!

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

  What you want to do is not allowed

  Current Terms of Service:

  11. Attribution. Automattic reserves the right to display attribution links such as ‘Blog at WordPress.com,’ theme author, and font attribution in your blog footer or toolbar. Footer credits and the WordPress.com toolbar may not be altered or removed regardless of upgrades purchased.

  May I remove the Admin Bar, credit links such as ‘Blog at WordPress.com’, theme, font, or toolbar links?

  All WordPress.com bloggers are required to maintain the Admin Bar (the dark bar that appears at the top of WordPress.com sites when logged in) as well as credit links, even our 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.

  Thanks auxclass. That’s exactly what I was looking for. Not sure how I missed it.

  You be welcome

  If you are doing CSS – why not add a bit before or after the footer credit “Custom CSS Styling by a Genius” :) or whatever – then you have added the part about your skills and the credits are still fine?

  Adding a bit before or after seems to be fairly simple
