We implement changes to your header or footer content exactly as you supply them — updated navigation text, a new footer disclosure, revised contact information — since these elements appear on every page, a change here reaches your whole site at once rather than needing individual page edits.

Why this costs $49. An hour of a capable WordPress developer’s time runs about $82 in the UK, $100 in the US and $105 in the Gulf, and for anything urgent a two-hour minimum is normal. This is $49 for up to 45 minutes of hands-on work, with a full backup taken before we start. 2026 market rates.

What we need from you

  • The final, exact content for the header or footer update
  • Confirmation of exactly what’s changing (specific text, a new element being added, something being removed)
  • Access to implement the change at the template level

This or something else?

You have final, ready content for a header or footer update This fix covers it
You specifically want a menu restructured, not general header/footer content Menu restructure from supplied spec
You specifically want business contact details updated, a related but more targeted scenario Contact details & NAP update sitewide
You want a broader, structural redesign of the header or footer, not a content update A different, design-focused task, worth describing directly

What we do

  1. Confirm the exact content change and its scope
  2. Implement the change at the template level so it applies sitewide correctly
  3. Verify the update displays correctly across page types and templates
  4. Check responsive behaviour on mobile
  5. Confirm no other header or footer elements were unintentionally affected
  6. Provide a written summary of what was changed

What is included

  • Header or footer content updated sitewide as specified
  • Verified correct display across page types and templates
  • Confirmed mobile responsive behaviour
  • A written summary of the change

Not included

  • Structural redesign of the header or footer layout, beyond content changes
  • Menu restructuring specifically, a separate, related fix
  • Content decisions about what the header or footer should say — that’s your call to specify
  • Ongoing updates as content changes again in future

Questions about this fix

Will this affect every single page on my site?

Yes, that's the nature of header and footer content — since these elements appear sitewide, a template-level change reaches every page using that template rather than needing individual edits.

What if I only want the footer changed on some pages, not all?

Worth flagging specifically, since a standard sitewide footer applies uniformly by default — a page-specific variation is a different, more involved kind of change worth discussing directly.

Can this include adding a completely new element, like a newsletter signup in the footer?

If you supply the final content and any required configuration details, yes, we can implement a new element as part of this update.

Will this break anything else in my header or footer?

We verify the rest of the header or footer displays correctly after the change, specifically checking that nothing else was unintentionally affected by the update.

How is this different from a general content update on a page?

Header and footer content lives at the template level rather than on individual pages, so implementing a change here requires updating that shared template rather than editing page-by-page content.

If this is the second time this year

A bad update breaking the site is a symptom of updates not being tested first. Care plans run every update on a staging clone before it reaches your live site, which is the actual fix for this happening again.

Your access, your rules

Create a separate admin account for us and delete it when we are done. For anything else, we get in touch and agree a method — never a form field on this site, never by reply to an email.

We back up first, always

Before anything is touched we take a full backup and keep it for 30 days. If a fix goes wrong, we put the site back exactly as it was.

If it is not what you bought

If the problem turns out smaller than what you ordered, we refund the difference. If it is bigger, we stop and send a quote before doing any extra work.

If we cannot fix it

You get back what we received. Diagnosis is on us — you only pay when the problem is actually solved. The payment processor takes its fee before the money reaches us, so we never hold it and it is not ours to return. That is true here as everywhere else.

If it comes back

Reply within seven days of delivery and we put it back on the bench at no cost. The fix is not finished until it holds.

What we are responsible for

If something goes wrong with a fix, our responsibility is limited to what you paid for it. We take a full backup first so mistakes can be undone, and we tell you before doing anything outside what you bought.
