Troubleshooting and FAQs

Q: I still see “Powered by BuddyBoss” after saving—what should I check?
A:

  • Ensure Footer Info Section is enabled.
  • Clear any caching (object, page, or CDN) and reload your site.

Q: Can I remove the entire footer section?
A: No—only the footer text can be edited or emptied. To hide the footer completely, you’d need a child-theme CSS or PHP override.

Q: My custom text isn’t styled the same—how can I adjust it?
A: Use Theme Options > Custom Codes > CSS to target and style .bb-footer-info elements.

Q: Does this affect the mobile view?
A: No. Footer content and styling apply site-wide, including mobile devices.
