Footer widget not showing up

[ahunter3]

I’m trying to get my recent post in the footer, but they won’t show up. I already set the theme to have 1 footer widget, but it’s still not showing up. I also only want the footer to appear on the blog post pages and not the home page. Thank you in advance.

Hello There,

Thanks for writing in!

Please go to Appearance > Widgets and find the “Footer 1” widget area. Insert a text widget and place this [recent_posts count="4" orientation="vertical"] shortcode.

Or you can make use of the Recent Post widget instead.

Hope this helps.

How would I go about getting a bold title for the footer widget? When I try to use the recent post widget, or any widget for the footer, it doesn’t show up.

Hi,

It doesn’t show up because it’s color white.

To change the text color, you can add this in Theme Options > CSS

.x-colophon.top,
.x-colophon.top a,
.x-colophon.top .h-widget {
   color:#000 !important;
}

Thanks

Still doesn’t show up.

Hi there,

Please try adding this code to the Global CSS as well:

.x-colophon.top {
    background-color: #333;
}

If the codes do not work, please copy all the codes you currently have here: http://csslint.net/ to check for CSS errors.

Hope this helps.
