    Hi,

    In the home-bottom widget area I am trying to get three columns instead of four.

    http://directmktg101.com/ (you can currently see the three and blank space.)

    Here are some of the threads that have been unhelpful:

    Columns in the footer of 'Education'

    Education Theme Featured Widgets with Different Column Widths

    Is there a quick change that can be made to change only the home-bottom to three columns?

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Backup before making changes.

    1. In functions.php file look for following code

    //* Add support for 4-column footer widgets
    add_theme_support( 'genesis-footer-widgets', 4 );

    change this to...

    //* Add support for 3-column footer widgets
    add_theme_support( 'genesis-footer-widgets', 3 );

    2. Then in style.css file

    Look for following code

    .footer-widgets-1,
    .footer-widgets-2,
    .footer-widgets-3,
    .footer-widgets-4 {
    	width: 255px;
    }
    
    .footer-widgets-1,
    .footer-widgets-2 {
    	margin-right: 40px;
    	margin-right: 4rem;
    }
    
    .footer-widgets-1,
    .footer-widgets-2,
    .footer-widgets-3 {
    	float: left;
    }
    
    .footer-widgets-4 {
    	float: right;
    }

    change this to...

    .footer-widgets-1,
    .footer-widgets-2,
    .footer-widgets-3 {
    	width: 340px;
    }
    
    .footer-widgets-1,
    .footer-widgets-2 {
    	margin-right: 40px;
    	margin-right: 4rem;
    }
    
    .footer-widgets-1,
    .footer-widgets-2 {
    	float: left;
    }
    
    .footer-widgets-3 {
    	float: right;
    }

    Thanks Davinder.

    I made all of the suggested changes and there are still 4 columns.

    Do you know what else could need to be done?

    Hi, I thought you wanted this for footer widgets. Please revert back above mentioned changes.

    For 3 columns of home-widget section. Look for following code in style.css file

    .home-bottom .widget {
    	float: left;
    	margin-left: 2.564102564102564%;
    	width: 23.076923076923077%;
    }
    
    .home-bottom .widget:nth-child(4n+1) {
    	clear: both;
    	margin-left: 0;
    }

    Change this to...

    .home-bottom .widget {
    	float: left;
    	margin-left: 2.564102564102564%;
    	width: 31.623931623931625%;
    }
    
    .home-bottom .widget:nth-child(3n+1) {
    	clear: both;
    	margin-left: 0;
    }

    Hi,
    Thank you for this, I was able to use the above info on this site, http://www.tech-talk.com to change from four section to three. However, now the images for each don't stretch across the whole widget area. How can I change the code to make the images wider?

    Thanks!
