So currently my footer reads: https://imgur.com/a/vTcap

I would like to get rid of the bottom line but keep the first line. There is no simple option to edit this I am pretty sure.

All I've found so far is when I edit the footer CSS I can completely remove the footer by entering

Code

footer .site-info { display:none; }

Any insight as to how I can keep the first line in the original image?

Thanks,

I'm trying to explain how to do it, do you've team-viewer and I'll do it for you.

What?

PM me the URL and I'll be able to send you the CSS that removes just that second line.
The solution for your problem most likely won't be available as themes different with different CSS classes.

You would have to find the individual class/ID for that second section inside the footer.

You can hide it (visually) with

Code

footer .site-info { margin-bottom: -20px; }

find out yourself how many pixels you need to hide.

The solutions above are really making me cringe, especially the one posted by Supertime. Hiding your problems is a stupid approach, you'd rather solve them and thank yourself later.

The last line, the one you'd like to remove, is likely specified in the HTML templates and not in the CSS. Remember, CSS is styling and HTML is markup/structure/content. Inspect element the last line, find the specific element, edit your footer template and remove that element.

Yes, but the theme would then be modified. And when an update occurs, which is most likely quite regularly, the HTML / PHP would be overwritten and it would be back.
However with the additional CSS built in to default WP, it would carry over regardless of whether the theme is updated/not.

For people who aren't as skilled as going through the theme, it's a solution that works for them, they're not gunna care the markup is still there on the page but not visible, if they care that much about it they can pay someone to make a theme for them/make a 'proper' theme edit.

I disagree, I still think it's a naive and ignorant approach to just hide your problems. I doubt WP updates change HTML templates otherwise everybody would be reverted to default theme after updates.

Instead of just naively using a workaround, teach them the actual solution so in future they can teach somebody else.
