  Hello,

  I just got the Premium upgrade with CSS and would like to remove the “Dyad Theme for WordPress” footer using CSS and would highly appreciate any help. What CSS would I enter to do so? I know not all CSS styling applies to all sites. I’ve attached the site URL to the “Select the blog you need help with” section.

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

  and would like to remove the “Dyad Theme for WordPress” footer using CSS and would highly appreciate any help.

  You can’t do that. Hie/remove footes credits is against the ToS:

  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 in the footer, 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. Using CSS, you can also add content like a copyright notice to the existing footer. If you would like to do that, you can ask in the CSS Customization forum and Staff or our community volunteers would be happy to help you do that.

  Okay, thanks! Can you please tell me how to add content to the footer then? Near that text — if that is possible.

  Hi!

  In order to add a text near the text, please add the following into your stylesheet:

  .site-info:before {
    content: 'My text - ';
    display: inline;
  }

  If you want the content to be right above then add:

  .site-info:before {
      content: 'My text - ';
      display: block;
  }

  Please note that we can’t add HTML in “content”.

  Hope it helps :)
