Need help to find out where a code lives

Hey.
I've been struggling with this issue for a few days and I can't figure it out. Basically I'm editing a Wordpress site, and I'm using the inspector (either Firefox or Chrome). I have been able to play with the code on the inspector and then edit the corresponding files on the server to make the changes permanent several times, however, there's this one code that I'm having a hard time with, because I can't figure out which file it is actually located in. I can see that in some cases the inspector shows which file a code is located in (even which line), as can be seen in the screenshot, however this code doesn't show the name of the file (i.e., style.css), instead it only shows 'inline...' If I click there, it takes me to another section with more details, but basically the problem is still the same; I still don't know which file that code is in.

I have tried opening several files and search for the code but I can't find it. It's definitively not in the style.css, neither the index.php, header.php or footer.php

Here's a screenshot:

Thank you. Any insight on how to go about this is much appreciated.

 

Hello Mate,

Give the plugin "String Locator" a go, I use it frequently when debugging other peoples WP sites, and it works really well in most instances.

Cheers,

Jon

 

Hello, "inline..." means that the code is being added directly to the page by JavaScript or has been hardcoded by a plugin or something. I would start by viewing the source of the front-end of the site to see what line number 6 is and go from there

 

Hey. Thanks a lot for your replies, I will definitively try both ideas.
One question regarding the second though; if the code has been added by JavaScript or a plugin, does that mean that the code is actually (never) really saved in one of the files?

 

Are you trying to remove the template authors attribution from the footer by any chance?

 

Hey,

Thanks for your replies.

So basically what I want to do is to change the size of the text, which (as I mentioned), I can do through the element inspector, however the changes are not saved. Also as I mentioned before; I have actually been able to successfully do that for the lower row; I located the corresponding code on the inspector, then I went to the corresponding file where the code is located, edited the file, and it wall worked well. The problem is the upper row, the code for that text is the one that seems not to be located anywhere, however, from what I understand from kennedigitahi's reply, is that that code may be 'generated one the fly' every time that the page is loaded, so I suppose that if that's the case, the code is actually not saved anywhere.
I came across some info in other forums, and from what I understand, it seems that for what I'm trying to do, an approach called 'injecting java' may be the way to go.

Any insight into that?
