In reply to: Create FooterLooks like your theme only provides one widgetised area. You can create a new one to use for footer widgets but you need to be comfortable with coding some PHP. You can read about it here:

In reply to: Where are widgets/sidebars stored?Theoretically you could load you backup file into a new database, examine the wp_options table and locate sidebar_widgets. A copy and paste between databases in something like phpmyadmin would probably work.
If you’ve never fiddled around with your database before, it might be best to leave things well alone and manually restore the widgets. Unless you’re feeling brave 🙂

In reply to: Media Upload ProblemsThe error massage is telling you that PHP has reached its maximum execution time to complete a task, in this case, dealing with an image. It’s probably because of the image file’s size. Either speak to your hosts about raising the limit, or, don’t rely on your web server to resize the image, do it prior to upload to cut down on the upload time.

In reply to: Where are widgets/sidebars stored?Widget options are stored in your MySQL database. They’re not files stored on your server. Unless you have a database backup prior to the glitch, they’re most likely gone.

In reply to: I can not access my admin panel nor my websiteYou must have made a mistake in your functions.php file. You need to visit your site via FTP or SSH and revert the changes you made to the file. The quickest way would be to simply replace the edited file with the backup you took prior to the edit. If you didn’t make a backup, don’t make the same mistake next time.
Your server error logs are usually available through your hosting account. They log useful information like reasons for a site not loading. Essential in debugging errors.

In reply to: Fatal error after plugins update!Visit your site via FTP or SSH and rename one of the two plugins’ directories. Alternatively you could do it through your hosting panel’s file manager.

In reply to: White Screen of Death when I INCREASE ramI’m not too sure that it’s the actual setting that’s causing the problem. It sounds like when you’re editing the wp-config.php file, it’s producing a PHP fatal error that’s taking down the site. What tool are you using to make the edit?

In reply to: Fatal error after plugins update!Looks like the two plugins have functions with the same name and are therefore presently incompatible with each other. A quick fix would be to disable Simple Contact Form or Email Newsletter and then replace the plugin’s functionality with a similar one. Maybe you could contact the authors of each plugin to see if they’d change the function name.

In reply to: Theme's shortcodes no longer working with WP3.9The move to version 4 of TinyMCE in WordPress 3.9 has had an effect on plugins and themes that add buttons to the editor tool bar. I noticed that you’d posted a support thread at your commercial theme designer’s site, it’s a shame they’re being unresponsive.
I found this page at wpexplorer where adding items to the new tool bar is discussed:

Maybe you can replace your old buttons that way.
