Lorelle on WordPress wrote “Customizing Your WordPress Theme Footer” back on September 30th. She gave some great examples on how to customize and use the footer of your theme for more than just a basic link back to WordPress. I thought of a different way and I’ve just figured out all the code you’d need to add to give you 2 columns at the bottom (actually outside of your technical footer div). I’ve done it here, so if you scroll to the bottom, you will see a red border on the left and a green border on the right. Here’s the code and references to the files you add them to for the K2 theme. You may be able to use this on other themes as well, but K2 is what I’m using here.

For simply His I already had a header design that was taller than the template would display. I created a custom style sheet to fix the header size. I’ll be adding to this custom style sheet to give the blog a more personal touch.

Most of the time you will see a link to click on. Clicking on this link should bring up a dialog box asking where you would like to save the file. Be sure you remember where you are saving the file on your computer. I typically have a folder named Downloads in My Documents. Once the file is downloaded, then you will browse on your computer to the folder you saved the file in. Depending on the type of file, you will have additional steps to go through to use it.

FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol. You need an FTP client (software) running on your computer to connect to your web server. I prefer FileZilla.
