kense 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2011 I've arrived here having posted here: http://www.pagelines.com/forum/discussion/comment/81659#Comment_81659 I've managed to create the template.footcols.php file and it now seems to be overriding the number of columns (though I'm not quite sure how it works?), but I'm having a few issues styling it because I'm a n00b... Basically, I'd like to keep the widgets the width that they are, but space them out so that they spread across the full width of the footer. Any ideas?

kense 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2011 For info, this is the code for the template.footcols.php that I am using to successfully override it: [code]name) ) : ?> " title=""> " alt="" /> " title=""> 'footer-links list-links', 'theme_location'=>'footer_nav', 'depth' => 1) ); ?> $post): setup_postdata($post);?> ID ); ?>"> post_title; ?> [/code] I'm not sure where in there it refers to the fact that I now only want 4 columns rather than 5, but it seems to be doing the trick, and when I had 5 widgets in the footer widgets area it passed one of them to be beneath another, so maintaining the 4 columns...
