   Greetings,

   I am looking for a way to remove the site navigation from the footer and don't see the php in the footer where I can do it. In addition, I want to use the method that this site uses to display new templates to display the pictures of blog contributors. Can you help?

   Hey,

   1.) The first 4 columns in the footer are generated by this code in footer.php when there are no widgets activated:

   ?>
   			<div class='box box_mini'>
   				<h4>Pages</h4>
   				<ul>
   		        <?php wp_list_pages('title_li=' ); ?>
   		        </ul>
       		</div>
   
   			<div class='box box_mini'>
   	            <h4>Archive</h4>
   				<ul>
   	            <?php wp_get_archives('type=monthly'); ?>
   	            </ul>
               </div>
   
   			<div class='box box_mini'>
   	            <h4>Categories</h4>
   				<ul>
   	            <?php wp_list_cats('sort_column=name&optioncount=0&hierarchical=0'.$exclude); ?>
   	            </ul>
               </div>
   
   			<div class='box box_mini'>
   	            <h4>Blogroll</h4>
   				<ul>
   	            <?php wp_list_bookmarks('title_li=&categorize=0'); ?>
   	            </ul>
               </div>
   
   		<?php

   2.)

   In addition, I want to use the method that this site uses to display new templates to display the pictures of blog contributors.

   Please explain what you mean as I don't understand your question. Are you wanting to display the Author Gravatar?

   Yes, I want to display the Author Gravatar - exactly.

   Also, regarding this code - I did not work. I did the following:
   1) Removed everything from the footer.php file and replaced it with the code you supplied and saved
   2) Verified that there were no widgets activated under Appearance >Widgets
   3) Added the code above the existing code then removed the <?php from the code you supplied so there were not two of them
   4) Cleared my cache and history from my browser

   The footer for some strange reason did not change at all! Its acting like the footer.php page is not even controlling it.

   Hey,
   Please refer to this thread: http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/removing-footer it will tell you how to modify footer.php correctly (don't use WP's theme editor please). Delete following code from footer.php if you don't want to display the dummy widget content:
   

   <div class='box box_mini'>
   				<h4>Pages</h4>
   				<ul>
   		        <?php wp_list_pages('title_li=' ); ?>
   		        </ul>
       		</div>
   
   			<div class='box box_mini'>
   	            <h4>Archive</h4>
   				<ul>
   	            <?php wp_get_archives('type=monthly'); ?>
   	            </ul>
               </div>
   
   			<div class='box box_mini'>
   	            <h4>Categories</h4>
   				<ul>
   	            <?php wp_list_cats('sort_column=name&optioncount=0&hierarchical=0'.$exclude); ?>
   	            </ul>
               </div>
   
   			<div class='box box_mini'>
   	            <h4>Blogroll</h4>
   				<ul>
   	            <?php wp_list_bookmarks('title_li=&categorize=0'); ?>
   	            </ul>
               </div>

   Hi Dude,

   The code you supplied worked beautifully for getting rid of the dummy code. Not sure where to drop Jame's php code in the footer file. I am pretty sure I can work through the CSS piece of the puzzle on my own though. Ultimately I want to replace the 'Latest Themes' images with my blog contributor's avatars.

   You can use a text widget to display any photos/avatars you like. Just use following html code to insert an image:

   <img src="my-image.jpg" title="my-image" alt="my-image" />

   Replace my-image with the url to your image and your title/alt attribute...

   I used the text widget and used a photo that is in the template file to test:

   

   Although this is the correct path, no image shows in the footer.

   Let me try that again - the code converted to the actual image..

    Hey,

    I guess I should have been clearer; the code I posted is how the dummy widgets are loaded, the code needed to be removed (not added anywhere) to remove the dummy widgets.

    I can't see where you're trying to add the image posted above but I can see that your footer widgets are displaying images (Effective Web Design etc). Is this working now?
