I am new to Wordpress and your videos are helping me beyond the course I am taking. Thanks a lot!

In addition to your excellent video, it is helpful to save your updated Footer code since each time you update the Theme the old Footer will return.
-
Props to you man.It was that easy? I feel like a fool lol, but now I know.

Thank you brother, this video helped me after 2 good hours of headache. Keep it up

Great Video on how to use the dashboard editor to adjust code. Only thing to remember, and you did a good job of mentioning this a few times is to make sure to copy the code and save it to your clip board or even a text editor. Just a quick tip in case anyone accidentally messes up the PHP Code and encounters the dreaded white screen of death. If this were to happen to you then if you followed the advice of copying the code before making changes then you can recover quickly by logging into your web host control panel, head over to file manager then make your way to your active theme folder, locate the footer.php file, click the edit code link and you can take the code that you copied and paste it there, save it and your site will recover. Just refresh your website in the browser. Another way to resolve this is by using FTP/SFTP and having actual backups of your files on your local computer. Then you can just upload the backed up file right to your server. Again, great job on demonstrating how to customize the footer credits. I look forward to seeing more of your videos.

Everytime, I tried to install broken themes sold to me by certain people who copied them too, to others themes builder, now I think I will have enough of. Thanks with the videos
-
My theme uses a function instead of explicitly writing the info in footer.php. So I had to edit it within the "template-tags.php" file found in the "includes" folder. Same principal though. Thanks!
-
