Hi wishing4a300. Here’s one way to do it:
1. Appearance > Theme Options > Sidebars, create a new dynamic sidebar with a unique Sidebar ID; something like “my-footer-sidebar”.
2. Appearance > Widgets, add a text widget to the new sidebar and place your content in the widget.
3. Copy footer.php from the parent theme to your child theme.
4. At the bottom of the file you’ll see this:
<div class="grid one-half last">
<?php alx_social_links() ; ?>
</div>
</div><!--/.pad-->
</div><!--/.container-inner-->
</section><!--/.container-->
5. Add the sidebar:
<div class="grid one-half last">
<?php alx_social_links() ; ?>
</div>
</div><!--/.pad-->
<?php
echo '<div class="my-footer-widget">'; // add a container
dynamic_sidebar('my-footer-sidebar'); // insert the sidebar
echo '</div>';
?>
</div><!--/.container-inner-->
</section><!--/.container-->
6. Add the following to your child theme css:
.my-footer-widget {
text-align: center;
}
