### Customizing Copyright Text and Footer Description
To modify the copyright text and footer description, locate the appropriate i18n file for the desired language. Update it as follows:

#### Example: English (`en.json`)
```json {6-7}
// en.json
"footer": {
  "quickLinks": "Quick Links",
  "legal": "Legal",
  "resources": "Resources",
  "description": "Looka is a San Francisco-based design and technology company founded in 2016. Their mission is to democratize design by making professional branding tools accessible to everyone.",
  "copyright": "Copyright {{ year }} / All Rights Reserved By Looka / Built with love using [Astro Themes](https://getastrothemes.com/)"
}
```

#### Example: French (`fr.json`)
```json {6-7}
// fr.json
"footer": {
  "quickLinks": "Liens rapides",
  "legal": "Juridique",
  "resources": "Ressources",
  "description": "Looka est une entreprise de design et de technologie basée à San Francisco, fondée en 2016. Leur mission est de démocratiser le design en rendant les outils de branding professionnels accessibles à tous.",
  "copyright": "Droits d'auteur {{ year }} / Tous droits réservés par Looka / Construit avec amour [Astro Themes](https://getastrothemes.com/)"
}
```

1. Open `src/i18n/en.json` (for English) or another language file, such as `src/i18n/fr.json` (for French).
2. Locate the `"description"` & `"copyright"` section.
3. Update the those values.

> Note: If you are not using the multilingual feature, you can update the copyright and footer description directly in the `config.toml` file

```toml {2} {7}
# config.toml
[settings]
  footerDescription = "" # Check src/i18n/en.json and src/i18n/fr.json for changing the footer description in different languages

  # For changing footer description and footer copyright in different languages see src/i18n/en.json and src/i18n/fr.json
  [settings.copyright]
    enable = true
    text   = "" # Check src/i18n/en.json and src/i18n/fr.json for changing the copyright text in different languages
```

### Customizing Brand Name
To modify the brand name, locate `brandName` in `config.toml` located in the `src/config` folder and update it as follows:

```toml {15}
# config.toml
# Different theme settings
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[settings]
  # If you change the content folder keys, make sure to rename the matching folders and update content.config.ts
  # - "src/content" folder
  # - "src/[...lang]/pages" folder
  # - "src/content.config.ts" collection object
  blogFolder        = "blog" # Folder where blog posts are stored
  integrationFolder = "integration" # Folder where integrations/services are stored (theme-specific)
  careerFolder      = "career" # Folder where job posts are stored (theme-specific)

  pagination   = 5 # Number of posts displayed on each page blog list page
  stickyHeader = true # Enables or disable sticky feature of header
  brandName    = "your-brand" # Name to be displayed in the footer as big text
```
