Description
This plugin only works with themes that have added support.
Footer Credits provides a standardized method for making theme credits editable. It registers a new section and fields in the Customizer for modifying the credits and choosing how they appear.

Notes
If you’re a theme author and want to add support, all you need to do is pass the default credits string through a footer_credits filter.
1. Create a template tag with the default credits and filter:
Hyalite'
);
echo apply_filters( 'footer_credits', $text );
}
endif;
2. Then call the template tag somewhere in the footer of the theme:
