I have a free version of WordPress Elegant Magazine theme. In footer, with copyrights, the name of the theme is mentioned; not editable through visual customisation.
I tried to edit theme code but was getting error msgs.
What should i do now? Would you help me with the code?

In the Customized option, You can give
display:none
on the Addition CSS area for footer copyrights class name. Then give your own copyrights text through the footer widgetsOR
Just find the copyrights text on the wordpress/wp-content/themes/elegant/ folder and change it
It will work on…
Create child theme. Read how to create child theme https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/advanced-topics/child-themes/ or download the child theme i have made https://github.com/snuffybg/Elegant-Magazine-Child-theme.git
In your child theme you will find footer.php file where at line 144 to 147 code is edited. You need child theme in case the theme have updates and to avoid overwrite files.
Update: After download go to WordPress dashboard -> Appearance -> Themes . Add new and upload elegant-magazine-child.zip after that activate.
