Hi! Unfortunately it fell through with my client so the site isn’t active anymore. The above instruction worked though, and I had to define a whole separate set of styles to style the area I inserted above the footer.

Worked!!! Thanks so much.
Now I’m working out styling details over at my theme’s forum. Yikes. Putting the widget in the footer is basically like starting over from scratch style-wise.

Thanks again!

Thank you! It worked!

I’m having a lot of trouble with styling, once I added the widget into the footer it’s like starting over with a blank slate. No margins, wrong font sizes, headings are wrong sizes, etc. When I try to look up all these styles most of them say inherit or 100% and I can’t find the original styles.

Any advice or tips on how I can maintain the same look throughout the footer?

Thanks so much!

Nevermind about the background color! I just realized the default background image overrides it. I uploaded a transparent pattern and the background color is showing through.

I do still need to know about the Featured Images though! ??

I found the solution to my problem, so I figured I would post here in case anyone else has the same issue…

In my header.php of my theme I replaced:

<title><?php wp_title( ‘|’, true, ‘right’ ); ?></title>

with this:

<title><?php if(is_home()) { echo bloginfo(“name”); echo ” | “; echo bloginfo(“description”); } else { echo wp_title(” | “, false, right); echo bloginfo(“name”); } ?></title>

This checks to see if the page is the home page, if it is, it displays the site title. If it is not, it displays the page or post title followed by “|” and then site title.

I got the code from here.

Also as a disclaimer, it is recommended to use a child theme, or else these changes will be erased when the theme is updated.

Ok thank you!

Thanks. I changed my theme to Twenty Twelve and it displayed like I wanted it to, so it is definitely a problem with the theme.

Could you point me to a place in the codex that explains this? I’m not sure how to word my problem for an effective search…

I am using a barebones theme called Migration that I got here.

I know it’s hard for you to help me troubleshoot when I’m not using one of the popular themes. I was hoping that there is a general fix for this that goes across most themes.

Thanks for your quick response!

It worked perfectly, you are brilliant!

Do you know if MailChimp or other services have an option to store physical addresses too? I could add that to this form using the same method and give customers more options!

Wow, you are awesome!! I’m going to give it a try and let you know if I have anymore questions! THANKS A MILLION!!!!!!!!! ??

Understood. I’ll be the one updating plugins so it’s not a big deal. If it works, it will absolutely be worth it.

I’m using the #5 form design.
I’m thinking a text field with a required format of mm/dd/yyyy would be easier. I say this because with a drop-down menu, eventually the years would have to be updated. My client is planning to use MailChimp but it isn’t set up as of yet, so I’m not sure if there is a required way for the fields to be entered. I’m sure you would know more about that than me.

And thanks so much for the amazingly fast response, yet another reason why this plugin is top notch!

Sorry, I was messing with it. I was trying to see if changing the Wine link to an anchored div would work, so I just added one so I didn’t mess the other one up. I changed it back now.

Do you have any ideas?

Actually, I think I just need some code that says when any of those sub-menu items are clicked or the child-pages are being displayed, “Wine” is set to active. I believe that would be much easier.

(I am using a Plugin called Nav Menu Images so that my buttons are images.)

How would I go about this?
