bottom bar

Hi,

You can achieve it by fallowing any one of the method.

1) Create a template in Theme panel > my library. Copy the shortcode and paste in every page.
Edit page > oceanwp settings > shortcode > before the footer.

2. Use a child theme. First register a sidebar in that location above the footer. Go to appearance > widgets and add template shortcode from the above process.

3. Use Ocean Footer Callout plugin.

Hi,

thanks for your help. Solution #1 works perfectly. Here:
/sample

However, since I’m already using a child theme, I’d like to implement the #2. Can you please provide some instructions to registrer a sidebar with oceanwp? I already found some tutorials, but since it requires messing with functions.php, I’d like some official info. I don’t want to make mistakes.

Thanks

Oh, I forgot to attach the documentation. Here you go – register sidebar

Add this code in your child theme function.php file. Don’t forget to call registered sidebar in footer.php file.

After finishing it, go to the appearance > widget and add your shortcode here.

Hi,

I added the sidebar in functions.php:

/* Sidear before the footer */
function footer_sidebar_mattia() {
    register_sidebar( array(
        'name' => __( 'Pre-Footer Sidebar', 'oceanwp' ),
        'id' => 'pre-footer-sidebar',
        'description' => __( 'Widgets in this area will be shown on all posts and pages, before the footer.', 'oceanwp' ),
        'class' => '',
        'before_widget' => '<li id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">',
    'after_widget'  => '</li>',
    'before_title'  => '<h4 class="widgettitle">',
    'after_title'   => '</h4>',
    ) );
}
add_action( 'widgets_init', 'footer_sidebar_mattia' );

I copied the footer.php in the child theme directory and added a call so:

        </main><!-- #main -->

        <?php do_action( 'ocean_after_main' ); ?>

        <?php dynamic_sidebar('pre-footer-sidebar'); ?>

        <?php do_action( 'ocean_before_footer' ); ?>

Now I see the sidebar. I added the language switcher and it works. Fantastic.
But I can’t find a way to add a shortcode to it. What’s the name of the widget?

Thanks

Hello,

Go to appearance > widgets > Pre-footer Sidebars and add a textbox (text). Paste the shortcode in this textbox.

Awsome thanks! It works perfectly!

Glad to hear that!
