    Hello,

    just a short Question: how can i add a div before footer widget area starts? I used simple hooks but you just can chose "before_footer" - would be great to hardcode it with a function on functions.php.

    How should it looks like?

    Greetings

    The page is actually not online, i just build it on localhost right now.

    The widget area code is: add_theme_support( 'genesis-footer-widgets', 3 );
    Can i just use the hook system to get a new DIV above?

    genesis_before_footer just puts the new div under the footer widget area. (tested with simple hooks)
