Wordpress - Bottom Widgetized Sidebar

5 replies

So, I would like a sidebar that is at the bottom of my page that is widgetized.

I was looking online and went through a couple of steps:

- I registered the sidebar in the functions.php
- Did a little CSS work so that the widgets were not a list

My trouble is getting the widgets to go horizontal instead of vertical.

What would be the proper CSS code for this?

If you can let me know how to create this widgetized sidebar horizontally, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

    At work so don't have firebug installed to test.

    But I would think using

    PHP Code:
    displayinline
    would do it.

    Mike, try this:

    Create a DIV all the way through the bottom, ie 900px wide + 200px height or size you want.

    then register Sidebar2, Sidebar3, Sidebar4 and Sidebar5 at functions.php and call then in your bottom.php or footer.php (which one you use).

    Let me know how it goes.

    EDIT: they are displaying vertically cause you only have ONE sidebar there.

      Thanks for the help, but that is what I already had. Couldn't seem to get it to work

    Use a parent div which would contain the widgets, and then use another div inside it which would control the width of the widgets side by side by using float.
