    This is totally awesome! I began searching for a clear and FAST tutorial or beginner instructions for adding a widgetized footer but everything I was seeing required some coding and seemed complicated.

    I just wanted a simple way to do this without having to read a lot of boring code and instruction that I could care less about. Then I would have to try something I wasn’t real confident about doing.

    This video totally delivered!! In a minute or two, I had my widgetized footer set up. Thank you John Hayden!!

    Hi
    How do I put a widgetized footer in the footer section of headway instead of the body. I am using 2.04 version of headway. In the earlier version of headway the you could create a widgetised footer through the configuration panel.(See http://themevids.com/add-widgets-to-your-footer-in-headway/) I could not find any way to do this in the 2.04 version of headway.

      Create the horizontal widget and then position it in the footer with CSS.
