How to customize the footer in joomla

I just started using joomla, so im a bit new to it. Im using version 4.1.0 I have added a footer on my site (Content - Site Modules - New - Footer) The footer is where it is supposed to appear, but it seems that i cant edit it. I cant add icons and i cant edit the text that the Cassiopeia template has ( Copyright © 2022 joomlatutorial. All Rights Reserved. Joomla! is Free Software released under the GNU General Public License.) Can anyone please help ?

Your solution is to create a Language Override for the footer.

The displayed text is determined by the native Language Strings of Joomla. MOD_FOOTER_LINE1 and MOD_FOOTER_LINE2.

You will find a guide on how to do it here in section 4.4.3. Having a nice customized Footer: https://magazine.joomla.org/all-issues/february-2022/joomla-4-cassiopeia-template-a-bunch-of-tips-tricks

If you do not want to display any text for the second line, leave the text field blank when creating the language override.

Bonus tip: You can use other module types than footer. The Custom module allows you to write your own text/html using the WYSIWYG editor.

Best of luck! :)
