Thank you for the file and the explanation of the child theme. But, is there a more specific code and placement of the code for me to remove the footer from all pages?
Thank you.

Hi pmcreations.
Try logging into wordpress dashboard. Go to Appearances. Editor. Looks for the file called: footer.php
That will show you the code for your footer. Also, I believe WP DEV has a plugin floating around here. That allows you to edit/modify your themes footer. I will have to go and search for it.
Take Care. Hope this points you in the right direction. Del @ MirajeStudios.com

Almost forgot...before you try and edit your code. Don't forget to do a backup? In case something gets broken. :) Just thought I'd throw that in there. Good Luck

Hello pmcreations,
I hope that Arun's suggestion has got you fixed here.
Also, I would like to let you know that we have released a new updated version of Blogs MU theme. So I would suggest you to keep a note of all the changes you have made as you might have to redo it once you update the theme.
Alternatively, I would suggest you to use child themes :)

Hello pmcreations,
The ideal way to edit theme is to use Child Themes. All our Themes come with Child themes (inside a folder /themes/ in the download).
Using child themes will make sure that all changes you do are carried over during theme updates.
So here is what I have done. Its attached.
I copied the footer.php to the child theme folder. The files in the child theme are given preference.
All you need to do is, download the attached child theme, and install it like any other WordPress theme and activate it.
Search for "your Footer" in footer.php and you will find something like this:
<?php _e('This is', TEMPLATE_DOMAIN); ?> <a href="http://yourlink.org" title="Your Title"><?php _e("Your Footer",TEMPLATE_DOMAIN); ?></a> | <a href="#top-bg"><?php _e('Go back to top ↑', TEMPLATE_DOMAIN); ?></a>Editing it will give you your custom footer.
Hope this makes sense. Let me know how that goes. Good luck!

To remove it completely, open up your footer.php (preferably in the child theme) and remove this:
Somewhere around line 112. That should do it :)
