How to Make Widget Area Last Widget Area Before the Footer

[reachself]

I recently switched themes from Infinity Pro to Essence Pro. I used the coding from the following link in Infinity Pro and it worked just fine - the instagram widget showed at the bottom.

How to Add an Instagram Feed to Your Site Footer

When I put it in the Essence Pro theme, it shows up before other widget areas that are before the footer. It shows up before 'Front Page Featured', 'After Content Featured', and 'Footer CTA'.

How can I fix it so that the instagram widget area is the last before the footer?

In the code from the StudioPress blog, try changing genesis_before_footer to genesis_after_footer

// Add Instagram widget before footer.
add_action( 'genesis_before_footer', 'sp_instagram_feed_widget' );
function sp_instagram_feed_widget() {

	genesis_widget_area( 'instagram', array(
		'before' => '<div class="instagram"><div class="wrap">',
		'after'  => '</div></div>',
	) );

}

Thank you for your response. I did try that but I want the widget area to show right before the footer. I just need it after the other widget areas.

You need to add a priority to it then.

add_action( 'genesis_before_footer', 'sp_instagram_feed_widget', 10 );

On that line add the comma (,) and 10. If it doesn't move, then try 15.
