What file needs to be edited to add a new symbol to a specific location on a WordPress site?

To add a new symbol to a specific location on a WordPress site, you will need to edit the theme's functions.php file. Within this file, you can use PHP code to create a new function that outputs the desired symbol at the specified location on the site. After creating the function, you can then call it within the theme template files to display the symbol where needed.

// Add new symbol to specific location on WordPress site
function add_new_symbol() {
    echo '★'; // This will output a star symbol
}

// Call the function in the theme template file where you want the symbol to appear
add_action('wp_footer', 'add_new_symbol');
