    Hello, I just installed the Evolve theme on my site and I am trying to customize the footer. I am looking for the same footer design that is on the Evolve Demos on the main site. How can I go about getting my footer to look the same?

    I have about 5 years of working with Joomla, but I am brand new to WordPress. Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Hello

    You should first try with demo site and install in Evolve demo data.
    Check theme options and widgets how it manage do same in your site.
    If you still not get any option let us know.

    Thank you

    Thanks for the reply Priyank,

    I went back and loaded the demo data link you suggested. The demo data was loaded, but the footer remains just a single line of text. In the theme options, I changed the footer to 3 columns, and now the text appears formatted following the theme. So I think my problem is a lack of understanding on how WordPress handles things. Like I mentioned earlier, my experience is with Joomla.

    Am I understanding correctly that in each column, I need to add a widget to accomplish what I want? Also, if I am correct, do you have any recommendations on books that will help me with WordPress.

    Thanks,

    –Hank

    Hello

    There is no document for this option how you can set footer widgets.
