Inkfolio is free and open source. To keep it maintained, the theme ships with a small banner that mentions ZensInk, the SEO toolkit this site was built alongside. You are not stuck with it.
Remove it entirely
Open site.config.yaml, find promoBanner, and change one value:
promoBanner:
enabled: falseSave. The banner is gone from every page — the HTML is not rendered at all, so there is no hidden element left behind and nothing to click.
Keep it, but change the words
promoBanner:
enabled: true
dismissible: true
text: This site runs on Inkfolio
link: https://example.com
linkText: Read morePoint the link at your newsletter, your product, or your own project. The banner is a normal config value; it has no special status in the code.
What “dismissible” does
With dismissible: true, visitors get a close button. Once they click it, the choice is saved in localStorage under inkfolio-promo-dismissed, and the banner stays closed on that browser. Set it to false if you want the banner permanent — for example on a site where the banner is a legal notice rather than a promotion.
One detail worth knowing: the banner element starts hidden and is revealed by a few lines of inline JavaScript. That is what stops it from flashing back on every page load after someone closes it. If a visitor has JavaScript disabled, the banner stays hidden rather than showing un-dismissable.
