How to Remove 'Powered by Shopify' : Step-by-Step Guide

To get started, sign into your Shopify admin panel with your username and password. This will give you access to all the settings you need to customize your store.

Once logged in, look for the "Online Store" option in the main navigation menu on the left side of the dashboard. This section lets you manage your store’s appearance and layout.

Next, locate and click the "Three dots" icon near the top-right corner for more options related to your online store. This menu provides additional settings and tools.

From the dropdown options that appear, choose "Edit code". This will open the theme’s code editor, where you can make direct changes to your store’s files.

In the code editor, find the "Filter files" search bar. Use this to quickly locate specific files within your theme by typing the file name or keyword.

This step includes a helpful video demonstration that walks you through the process so far. Feel free to watch it to get a clearer idea of what to expect.

Now, enter "footer.liquid" into the filter and click on the file when it appears. This file controls the footer content of your store, including the "Powered By Shopify" text.

Click inside the code editor pane to activate it, then press Control + F (or Command + F on Mac) to open the search function within the file. This will help you locate specific lines of code quickly.

In the search bar that appears, type "powered_by_link" to find the exact code segment responsible for displaying the Shopify branding in your footer.

Here’s another video to guide you through using the search function effectively and identifying the portion of code you need to modify or remove.

Use the "Next" button in the search tool to cycle through the matches until you locate the precise line of code containing "powered_by_link". This is the part that you want to edit out.

Once you find the line with "powered_by_link", delete it carefully. Removing this snippet will prevent the “Powered By Shopify” message from showing on your site’s footer.

After making your changes, be sure to save the file by clicking the "Save" button at the top-right of the code editor. This will apply the update to your live store.

Great job! You’ve successfully removed the "Powered By Shopify" line from your store’s footer, giving your site a cleaner and more professional look.
