In the [Obsidian](https://curiouslychase.com/tools/obsidian/) Discord, I've seen a few people ask:
> How can I hid the "Powered By Obsidian Publish" banner?

You'll learn:
- **[Obsidian Publish](https://curiouslychase.com/posts/obsidian-publish/)** - making change in `publish.css` and publishing

What you'll need:
- [Chrome](https://curiouslychase.com/posts/chrome/) (Safari is similar, but different)
-[VS Code](https://curiouslychase.com/posts/vs-code/) (or some other editor you're comfortable with)

# Updating Obsidian Publish

Now that you know the element selector you want to use (`.site-footer`), you need to open your Obsidian vault with your editor.

> The [Obsidian](https://curiouslychase.com/tools/obsidian/) app only supports markdown and image extensions, which is why it doesn't show up in your **File Explorer** (and can't be opened there).
> 

Once you've opened your vault, check if you have a `publish.css` in the root of the folder in the **Explorer**. If it doesn't, you'll need to create one.

Once you have `publish.css`, click to open it and scroll to the bottom of the file. 

For this example, we want to style the `.site-footer` as hidden:

```css
.site-footer {
	display: none;
}
```

Once you've added this, save the file and open your [Obsidian](https://curiouslychase.com/tools/obsidian/) vault. 

Click the **Publish changes** button (at time of writing it's a paper airplane). When the modal opens, you should see `publish.css` marked as **changed**.

Click **Publish** and go to your [Obsidian Published site](https://curiouslychase.com/posts/obsidian-publish/), refresh the page and the site footer should be hidden!
