    Hey guys,

    This may seem like a totally basic question, but I need to edit the actual html markup on my site. I have some hard-coded html elements that need editing (adding a specific url).

    Can’t find what I’m looking for in the built in Theme Editor in any of the theme’s templates.

    Any suggestions?

    What are you looking for exactly? everything should be within the themes files, and if not you might have to make the page yourself.

    Here’s the link to the site: https://www.theepicstudent.com/wordpress/

    Look at the sidebar, and the items in the very bottom that are links to social networking sites, etc. Their links just have “#” and I want to edit those.

    Cannot find those in any of the theme’s templates. I do find the items in the CSS, but surely I can’t put actual URLs in the CSS.

    I can right-click on the page in the browser and see the “source” but can’t find it anywhere to edit those few items.

    Suggestions?

    Looks like they are widgets to me, under the appearance tab, click on widgets and tell me what u see

    The part that I’m talking about aren’t widgets. They are hard-coded.

    The widgets that are active are the “categories” and the black text that wasn’t styled out in the CSS.

    What I’m trying to edit is that “hard code.” I see those stylings in the CSS, but you can easily tell that they are links to “#” and all I want to do is change “#” to an actual url.

    The footer I did this easily, as well as other areas on the page. But this…no clue.

    Since you seem to think they are hard coded, why dont u ask the AUTHOR of the THEME. if not upload the theme and let someone else trouble shoot it

    Okay, I think I’m an idiot. ??

    The sidebar has been broken into 2 parts and I just noticed that there was a dropdown menu for the sidebar.

    What I was looking at was sidebar_1. Had no clue there was a sidebar_2. I selected the latter and found the code I was looking for.

    UGH!

    However, I truly appreciate your efforts to help me. That’s very kind of you. Thank you very much!
