Hide footer area on certain pages?

[ilkweb]

Does anyone have a link to a tutorial on hiding site-footer on certain pages?

I'm not talking about widgets but rather the entire footer. I've used a conditional logic plugin on footer widgets but naturally the footer still shows albeit empty (except for the background-color).

The conditional logic in the snippet below is what I'm intending to use to show the footer for those pages.

is_page( array( 47, 18, 20 ) ) || is_404() || is_search()

I think I wrongly described what I'm trying to do.

I actually want to remove the footer widgets plus the footer widgets area. The footer, I understand, is where the credits reside.

The code in this tutorial should get you started however you will need to use the correct conditional tags.

I've used the following in functions.php to hide the actually footer widgets wrapper which I'm describing as the "footer widgets area":

/* Show footer widget area on certain pages */

add_action( 'genesis_before', 'wpsites_display_footer_home' );
function wpsites_display_footer_home() {
if( !is_page( array( 47, 18, 20 ) ) || is_404() || is_search() ) {
remove_action( 'genesis_before_footer', 'genesis_footer_widget_areas' );
remove_action('genesis_footer', 'genesis_do_footer');
remove_action('genesis_footer', 'genesis_footer_markup_open', 5);
remove_action('genesis_footer', 'genesis_footer_markup_close', 15);
}}

I'm also using a conditional logic plugin for individual widgets to hide the four widgets I have:

is_page( array( 47, 18, 20 ) ) || is_404() || is_search()

This is working so far but I think I could probably lose the conditional logic plugin.

Yes, no need for the plugin when you have coded the conditionals into the PHP.

I actually do need the plugin though - Without it, the widgets show up where I don't want them to. I've yet to replace the conditionals I put into the plugin with the equivalent conditionals in functions.php.

I've been looking for a way to do this, as seemingly, what I presently have in functions.php is not sufficient.

[Brad Dalton]

Once you add the correct conditionals to the code in functions.php, you'll no longer need the plugin.
