    My client's site had some text widgets in the footer when I installed and she moved them out of the footer for the sidebar. She is trying to add a text widget back in and nothing is showing up. I added some widget to the footer widget areas and still nothing showing. Any ideas?

    She's on the latest Genesis with the Vintage Child theme.

    Her link is: http://www.accidentallygreen.com

    I am using Firebug and I don't see anything in the Footer areas. Please drag some text and add titles to those areas so I can look again.

    Yes there are at least 2 widgets (with content) in each of the 3 footers. I know they do not display if nothing is in them--I wouldn't have asked the question if I hadn't already placed images and text and then not have it shown up.  Hence why I said:

    CreativeKristi,

    You're getting some script errors on that site: one from the SiteMeter and another from the wibiya canvasbar. Try disabling those and see if your footer widgets make an appearance.
