Change the footer in WordPress admin

Add RSS feed to Reader and sync to Readwise.

To change the footer text in the WordPress admin area, add the following lines to your theme’s functions.php.

// FOOTER LEFT
// Change "Thank you for creating with WordPress" text
function snippets_admin_footer_left() {
    echo '<a href="https://your-domain.com" target="_blank">Your text</a>';
}
add_filter('admin_footer_text', 'snippets_admin_footer_left');
Code language: PHP (php)

To remove the version number on the right side of the footer, you need to remove the existing text and then add the new text.

// FOOTER RIGHT
// Remove the version number
function snippets_remove_version_admin_footer() {
    remove_filter( 'update_footer', 'core_update_footer' ); 
}
add_action( 'admin_menu', 'snippets_remove_version_admin_footer' );

// Add new text to the footer-right area. Use `.footer-thankyou` for italics.
function snippets_admin_footer_right() {
    echo '<span id="footer-thankyou">Developed by <a target="_blank" href="https://your-domain.com">Your Brand</a>.</span>';
}
add_filter('update_footer', 'snippets_admin_footer_right');
