    I’ve worked this out now – thank you!

    Nice! Feel free to share your technique in case others want to do the same. ??

    I see that you’re using a child theme, but there are some syntax problems with your HTML that I’d suggest you fix before you go too much further. You page is missing the opening <html> tag, for example – it starts with the <title> instead. You can look at your child theme’s header.php and compare it to the parent theme and get that fixed up – something might have gotten deleted that shouldn’t have been.

    Thank you so much – this fixed another issue I was having! The only issue I’m having now is that since I’ve put the widget on, the the distance between the widget and the actual projects is quite a large gap. Not on the home page but on the other pages – if I click on sketchbook for example, underneath the images there is quite a large gap! Is there any way I can fix/reduce this?

    Hi there,

    You can add this CSS to the site via Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS to reduce the spacing:

    /* Remove extra space below portfolio content */

.single-jetpack-portfolio .hentry {
    margin-bottom: 0;
    padding-bottom: 0;
}

/* Remove extra space above footer */
.single-jetpack-portfolio .site-footer {
    margin-top: 0;
    padding-top: 0;
}

    Thank you so much!!

    Hi there

    Been reading how to add widgets to the footer, but I have no idea how to go about setting up a child page? Can anyone post detailed instructions on setting this up and then adding widgets to the footer? And will it be all available widgets or will I have to code each type of widget I want?

    Thanks
