Well I don’t think I know enough about php to edit or create a new widget ?? I watched a few videos on You Tube and I am not there yet. However, I did create an html table and that is working. I can’t quite get the spacing of the links yet..but I will work on that.

Thanks to all of you:-)

Thanks, I will have to mull this over a bit because I am not a coder and not at all sure how to do this.

Actually…I don’t want another side bar…I want the navigation to be exactly where it is in the footer…I just want it to extend across horizontally and not wrap to 3 lines. I thought somewhere in the style sheet I could state a size but I haven’t been able to get it to do it:-(

How do I do that?

Thanks I knew about that drop down..I guess I missed it yesterday. I got it now! ??

Yes, You have to edit the function.php to tell it what size you want.
Be sure to make a child theme first and then make all your changes in the child theme.

Here is how I have my child theme set up. This is at the top of the style sheet.
You don’t have the template name listed in yours as I do. I think that makes a difference

/*
Theme Name: Oak Grove Plantation
Theme URI: http: //www.oakgroveplanation.com
Description: Oak Grove Plantation Site 2011
Author: Oak Grove Plantation
Template: oakgrove
Version: 1.0
*/

I tried putting it in the style sheet but it didn’t change it.

Would putting in in this section of the widget area in functions.php work some how??

See the footer area of this page: https://bluemontinluray.com/
I want them to be horizontal and not vertical.

// Area 3, located in the footer. Empty by default.
register_sidebar( array(
‘name’ => __( ‘First Footer Widget Area’, ‘twentyten’ ),
‘id’ => ‘first-footer-widget-area’,
‘description’ => __( ‘The first footer widget area’, ‘twentyten’ ),
‘before_widget’ => ‘<li id=”%1$s” class=”widget-container %2$s”>’,
‘after_widget’ => ”,
‘before_title’ => ‘<h3 class=”widget-title”>’,
‘after_title’ => ‘</h3>’,

So would I place it here in the style sheet?

/* =Footer
————————————————————– */

#footer {
margin-bottom: 20px;
ul li { float:left; display:inline; }

Rev. Voodoo…let me get this straight so I make sure I understand. I already created a child style sheet and edited the header, footer and functions.php sheets and it is live on line.

So..I just need to ftp it all back to my computer…put it in a folder with a new theme name zip it and then reinstall as a different theme??

Please clarify for me..Thanks so much

Bless you Punardeep!! Wrapper worked ?? I knew it had to be something like that, but I hadn’t gotten there yet. Thanks again!

Alright I guess my problem is similar. I have changed all different settings in the style sheet but I am still having problem trying to get the white background to change to the beige color I want. The white just seems too stark with the dark background

It is like trying to find a needle in a haystack:-( I did it once with another site and now I forget where it was ??

Can some one point me to the right area in the style sheet I need to change? I already using a child theme I created.

Here is a link to my test site:

Thanks one and all.

I was just joking. However since the theme is LIVE, we cannot do what you suggest. Thanks

Here is a link that describes how to do a child theme. Maybe it will help you.

Good luck is about all I can say. I went with the upgrade and it messed up my site today ??
If you know how to edit and save the files, then you should have no problem. Just put the new style.css and the other new .php files into the new theme folder and activate that as your theme.

My problem is I don’t know enough about editing the php files so don’t know how to find or change my mistake. ??

Maybe I just won’t do any new updates in the future.:-(
