Footer

Widget Areas

Most of the footer sections are created using “Widgets”. To edit Widgets, go to “Widgets” which can be found under ‘Appearance” in the main admin menu.

The Widgets page will display a list of all the Widget areas in the main pane.

Click on the widget area you want to edit, and the section will open up.

You will not see the logo widget! It is a white logo with a transparent background.

Click on the empty white space and the edit options for the image block will appear.

To swap the image click on “Replace” and the standard WordPress image selection will appear.

It is important that the logo (and any accompanying text) stands out against the blue background, so white is preferred.

As with any image you add to the website, it is important that you add “Alt Text” to describe the image.

Finally, to complete the image replacement click the ‘Update” button on the top right of the page.

The text can be edited by going to the “Footer Column 1” widget area. Click on the text and the edit options will appear.

To save the changes click the ‘Update” button on the top right of the page.

The “Quick Links” title can be edited by going to the “Footer Column 2” widget area and altering the text in the “Title” box. Click the “Update” button on the top right of the page to save the changes.

The menu items can be edited in the menu section (in the main admin menu go to “Menus” under “Appearance”. Make sure the “Edit Menus” tab is selected, and that you select “Footer Menu”.

The menu can then be edited in the same way as other menus.

The title and introduction text can be edited by going to the “Footer Column 3” widget area.

Click on the text and the edit options will appear.

To save the changes click the ‘Update” button on the top right of the page.

The contact details can be edited on the “Club Details” page.

Editing these will also update the contact details in the toolbar at the top of the page.

All are optional – leave the boxes empty if you do not want anything to be shown.

Also optional is the “Google Map Link”. If you would like your address to be a link that leads to an external site (it does not have to be google!) that shows your location put the url in this box.

To control where the text wraps to a new line, insert [w]. This will not effect the address in the toolbar at the top of the page – only the footer.

The club name that appears at the bottom of the page can be edited on the “Club Details” page (accessible via the main admin menu).

After making changes click the “Save Details” button at the bottom of the page.

The social media details can be edited on the “Club Details” page.

Leave any blank that you do not want to show.

Editing the Facebook and LinkedIn links will also effect those links in the toolbar at the top of the page.

After you have made changes click the ‘Save Details” button at the bottom of the page.
