    Hey everyone,

    I recently converted my wordpress.com blog over to wordpress.org with my own hosting. The import went rather smoothly, I thought… except for one problem. There are a few widgets that I don’t want, that don’t appear in the sidebar or footer (or anything), yet still appear on my site. I’ve tried adding duplicate widgets and then removing them to see if it’d take both of, but it still doesn’t work.

    If you could take a look: http://bluelinecrew.com/

    The only widgets I want so far are: Mete (Crew Access), the Calendar, and Latest Posts (Latest News). I don’t want anything else there, nor none of the footers, but I have no way of removing them. Help would be appreciated… thanks in advance.

  • Usually, placeholder widgets appear to show you how themes look with widgets.

    If you put new widgets in the locations the placeholders are, the placeholders will go away

    Hm, yeah when I added something to the bottom right footer, that one went away and was replaced. However I don’t want anything in the footer, especially the Social Connections in the bottom left (I don’t even have a Left Handed footer option). Also, the sidebar doesn’t replace them, just merely pushed the ones I don’t want down to the bottom.

    Figured it out. Just manually edited the Theme. Thanks for the help.

    Actually, could someone do one more thing for me… if you look at the blog now, and scroll all the way down, notice that big blue space. How do I get rid of that space? Here’s the code for the footer:

    <?php
    /**
     * @package WordPress
     * @subpackage Greyzed
     */
    ?>
    
    <hr />
    <div id="footer" role="contentinfo">
    
    	</div>	
    
    		<!-- begin widgetized footer -->	
    
    		<ul>
    		<?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar('Footer Middle') ) : ?>			
    
    		<!-- end widgetized footer -->
    		<!-- begin widgetized footer right -->
    
    	<!-- end widgetized footer right -->
    	<?php endif; ?>
    </div>
    </div>
    	<div class="footerlinks">
    
       <a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/">Home</a> &nbsp;&nbsp;|
    		<?php
    			$links = get_pages('number=6&sort_column=post_date&depth=1&title_li=');
    			foreach($links as $i => $page)
    			$links[$i] = '&nbsp;<a href="' . get_page_link($page->ID) . '" title="' . attribute_escape(apply_filters('the_title', $page->post_title)) . '">' . apply_filters('the_title', $page->post_title) . '</a>';
    			echo implode('&nbsp; | &nbsp;', $links);
    		?>
    		&nbsp;|&nbsp; <a href="<?php if (get_option('greyzed_feedburner') == "#") { bloginfo('rss_url'); } else echo get_option('greyzed_feedburner');?>" title="RSS">Posts RSS</a>
    		&nbsp;|&nbsp; <a href="<?php bloginfo('comments_rss2_url'); ?>" title="Comments RSS">Comments RSS</a>
    
    	</div>
    </div>
    
    <div id="footer-bott">&copy; 2010 <?php bloginfo('name'); ?>. All Rights Reserved. Greyzed Theme created by <a href="http://www.theforge.co.za/" title="The Forge Web Creations">The Forge Web Creations</a>. Powered by <a href="http://wordpress.org/">WordPress</a>.</div>
    
    <?php echo get_option("greyzed_analytics"); ?>
    		<?php wp_footer(); ?>
    </body>
    </html>
    #footer {
    	padding: 0;
    	margin: 0 auto;
    	width: 100%;
    	height: 455px;
    	background: #bcc5c1 url('images/bottom.jpg') top center no-repeat;
    	clear: both;
    	}

    looks like its that height of 455px in your style.css for footer that may be causing that, 55px looks better on my test
