Outreach Pro Widget section move

[Jack]

Hi,

Using the Outreach Pro Theme is it possible to switch the sub-footers and the home bottom so that the 4 sections would be bellow the text?

Many Thanks,
Pete.

are you wanting for home page only?

Yeah Also how would you go about removing the sub footers from other pages you just brought it to our attention sorry.

[Genesis Developer]

Removing from Other pages:

Open the functions.php and remove this code

//* Add the sub footer section
add_action( 'genesis_before_footer', 'outreach_sub_footer', 5 );
function outreach_sub_footer() {

	if ( is_active_sidebar( 'sub-footer-left' ) || is_active_sidebar( 'sub-footer-right' ) ) {
		echo '<div class="sub-footer"><div class="wrap">';
		
		   genesis_widget_area( 'sub-footer-left', array(
		       'before' => '<div class="sub-footer-left">',
		       'after'  => '</div>',
		   ) );
	
		   genesis_widget_area( 'sub-footer-right', array(
		       'before' => '<div class="sub-footer-right">',
		       'after'  => '</div>',
		   ) );
	
		echo '</div><!-- end .wrap --></div><!-- end .sub-footer -->';	
	}
	
}

Repositioning the Sub-footer for Home page:

Open the front-page.php file and change this line

add_action( 'genesis_before_footer', 'outreach_home_bottom_widgets', 1 );

by

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

Add the following code before the genesis() line

//* Add the sub footer section
add_action( 'genesis_before_footer', 'outreach_sub_footer', 5 );
function outreach_sub_footer() {

	if ( is_active_sidebar( 'sub-footer-left' ) || is_active_sidebar( 'sub-footer-right' ) ) {
		echo '<div class="sub-footer"><div class="wrap">';
		
		   genesis_widget_area( 'sub-footer-left', array(
		       'before' => '<div class="sub-footer-left">',
		       'after'  => '</div>',
		   ) );
	
		   genesis_widget_area( 'sub-footer-right', array(
		       'before' => '<div class="sub-footer-right">',
		       'after'  => '</div>',
		   ) );
	
		echo '</div><!-- end .wrap --></div><!-- end .sub-footer -->';	
	}
	
}

That worked Thanks for your help, but one thing went wrong and that is that it placed the home-bottom bellow the footer widgets as well as the sub-footer widgets. We would still like the footer widgets to be at the bottom and the home bottom to be above them.

Thanks Again For your help,

[Genesis Developer]

then replace the no 5 to 1 and 10 to 2

One last thing with our frame there is a widget area added to the theme its a full width rectangle 200px high. this will go bellow the home-bottom(in its moved position). would you have any idea on how we would be able to make this.

Thanks for your help.

[Genesis Developer]

are you already registered the new widget area? You will add the code in the front-page.php if you only want for home page. Other wise you will add the code in functions.php file

No we are not sure how to register a new plugin area that's what were trying to work out and then putting it in place, we haven't got much experience with this. Would you be able to show us how to register a new widget area and then place it in the front-page.php or direct us to somewhere we could learn how to do this.

Thanks for your help,

[Genesis Developer]

//* Register widget areas

genesis_register_sidebar( array(
'id' => 'before-footer-widgets',
'name' => __( 'Before Footer Widgets', 'genesis' ),
'description' => __( 'This section will appear at above of the footer widget area.', 'genesis' ),
) );
 
add_action('genesis_before_footer', 'new_home_widget', 3);
function new_home_widget(){
genesis_widget_area( 'before-footer-widgets', array(
'before' => '<div class="new_home_widget widget-area">',
'after' => '</div>',
) );
} 

Add the above code in functions.php file

[Genesis Developer]

You need to add the CSS in style.css file for design
