new to wordpress – manipulating themes and a footer question too

Thank you for the reply, I’ve just played around but although I could do a few things, like change the font size, I couldn’t find how to change the “contact us” colour or italics http://wordpress.pastebin.com/m3f2959e0 does the code give you any clues? do you think the way I’ve added the “contact us” button – a href – is ok in the text box for the footer?

Thnank you

hi, still having footer issues. In addition to the question above I’m also trying to add some text to the footer, but for some reason it is not showing up?

here’s the code:

<?php global $options; foreach ($options as $value) {    if (get_settings( $value['id'] ) === FALSE) { $$value['id'] = $value['std']; } else { $$value['id'] = get_settings( $value['id'] ); }} ?>				

			</div><!-- /content-wrapper -->

			<div id="content-bottom">
			</div><!-- /content-bottom -->			

		</div><!-- /main-wrapper -->

		<div id="footer">

			<div class="footer-links-wrapper"></div>

			<!-- <ul id="footer-links">

				<?php wp_list_pages('title_li=&depth=1&sort_column=post_date'); ?>

			</ul> -->

                        <p><this text is not showing in my footer how do i get it to show up? thanks></p>
                        <p class="footer-text"><?php echo $kv_footer_text;?></p>

		</div><!-- /footer -->

	<script type="text/javascript">
		var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www.");
		document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E"));
	</script>

	<script type="text/javascript">
		try {
		var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("<?php echo $kv_goog_analytics;?>");
		pageTracker._trackPageview();
		} catch(err) {}
	</script>
	</body>

</html>

ok I got the address in by updating the Footer Text box in Theme options 🙂

minor question relating to footer – I had to change the links style for the whole stylesheet (body a) rather than just the footer. How would I write the code if I wanted to change the links text style for footer only?

thank you
