Troubleshooting

I added a Custom Header/Footer/Ad Disclaimer but now I want to edit/remove it.

No problem! If you want to edit your Custom Header/Footer, you'll need to remove it first. To remove the Custom Header/Footer, click the trash can next to the item you'd like to remove and then click Delete to confirm. Now you can click + Add Custom Footer to replace it.

To edit/remove your Ad Disclaimer, click into the text box and make your changes (edit/delete)! Remember to click the green Save button when you're done making changes.
