Reply To: How to add 4th widget to footer

First you’ll need to find this code in your functions.php file –

//* Add support for 3-column footer widgets
add_theme_support( 'genesis-footer-widgets', 3 );

Then change the 3 to a 4

After you do this the 4th footer widget will appear on your widgets page as an option.

The only thing you’ll have to do is adjust your CSS and add the styling for the 4th widget. You’ll also need to shrink the 3 other widgets so they all can fit. You can look at what’s already in your Footer Widget section to see where everything is and what needs to be adjusted. And don’t forget the responsive CSS section as well.
