Hi all,

I replaced the “powered by wordpress yada yada yada” w/ different text in my footer using this code from this forum (thanks @Syahir):

function graphene_filter_gettext( $translated, $original, $domain ) {

$strings = array(

'Powered by %1$s and the %2$s.' => 'Website Design | Pointe Ultimate Publishing LLC',

);

if ( ! empty( $strings[$original] ) ) {

$translations = &get_translations_for_domain( $domain );

$translated = $translations->translate( $strings[$original] );

}

return $translated;

}

add_filter( 'gettext', 'graphene_filter_gettext', 10, 3 );

but now I need to add a link to that new text, and have no idea how! I know how to do the html a href= command, but where to put it?

I am using a child theme. Already got the “white screen of death” once, experimenting, so I’d like to ask a pro to help.

Any chance?

Thanks !

Thanks Prasanna for such a quick and simple reply. It works perfectly!

Details ! Details ! Seems my mistake was not putting the 'a href="http:// blah blah url"> inside the single quotes that encompassed the link text. Putting this outside the single quotes is what caused the white screen response.

I also added: target="blank" to make the link open in another tab.

So for the benefit of anyone else with this problem, here’s the final code I inserted in my site:

function graphene_filter_gettext( $translated, $original, $domain ) {

$strings = array(

'Powered by %1$s and the %2$s.' => '<a href="http://pointeultimatepublishing.com" target="blank">Website Design</a> | <a href="http://pointeultimatepublishing.com" target="blank">Pointe Ultimate Publishing LLC</a>',

);

if ( ! empty( $strings[$original] ) ) {

$translations = &get_translations_for_domain( $domain );

$translated = $translations->translate( $strings[$original] );

}

return $translated;

}

add_filter( 'gettext', 'graphene_filter_gettext', 10, 3 );

Works like a charm! Thanks again, @Prasanna!
