Hi,
Is there a way to add widgets to footer?
We would like to add custom text, image, map and some extras.
Thank you.
Hi,
Only through custom work:
if you open footer.php in the theme root folder, you can add the widgets with a call to the_widget() function
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_widget
or as widgetized area with dynamic_sidebar()
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/dynamic_sidebar
thanks
Thank you.

Can you be more specific where to put the code in footer.php and what code to use for dynamic_sidebar?
Thank you
That\'s really up to you. can be before or after the social icons. You may need to add css styles for the sidebar in the footer.
There are code samples for the dynamic sidebar in the link I\'ve sent you. You have to be familiar with php language though.
thanks
Thank you.

We are not familiar with php and this is the reason we are asking about that.
Tried to add this code in footer.php (after social icons):
<div id=\"first\" class=\"widget-area\">
<ul class=\"xoxo\">
<?php dynamic_sidebar( \'first-footer-widget-area\' ); ?>
</ul>
</div><!-- #first .widget-area -->
Cannot see the widget control in admin backpanel for footer
you must define a sidebar \'first-footer-widget-area\' for this to work. Have you defined it?
follow the documentation in the link and you should be fine.
thanks
Thank you.
