 * Hi, I was just trying to do the same and seen your post, this is what worked 
   for me.
 * >>Appearance>>Customize>>Widgets>>Widgets Area
 * Open the **Pages** widget and at the bottom use **remove**.

 * [@adityabagarka](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adityabagarka/) : yes, they
   are actually being called in the _footer.php_ file to show the Footer Widget 
   Section filled with content rather than empty space.
 * If you want to change widget follow the above steps provided by Thisnamedoesnotexistattempt31
 * Or
 * If you want to remove these **Pages** Please Make a [child-theme](http://www.weblizar.com/make-child-theme/)
   then remove the code of the **Pages** Widgets from the _footer.php_
    file.
 * Thanks

 * Hi,
 * I created a child theme, but i think i’m going wrong somewhere. I followed the
   steps mentioned in the above link “child-theme” and used the import command. 
   But where do i change the code of footer.php since the new folder I created of
   child theme does not have any file except for the style.css

 * HI ,
 *  Just make a replica of _footer.php_ from Parent Theme to your Child-Theme.
 *  Open this _footer.php_ find below given code.
    `else { /*****/ the_widget(‘WP_Widget_Pages’,
   null, $args); }`
 *  Remove this code and save this file, You are DONE;

 * It’s javascript. Just put 2 slashes before the beginning of the line.
 *     ```
       else {
       /*****/
       //the_widget('WP_Widget_Pages', null, $args);
