# Do footer widgets work?

 * I have tried to put an image and text in the footer using image widget, but it’s
   not showing. When I go to live preview, I get a message saying the page doesn’t
   display widgets, for each page . However I have managed to activate the sidebar
   and have put widgets in that. Do the footer widgets work on this theme and how
   can I get them to work? I want to put a section of text and/or image underneath
   the main section of text, but in a sepearate section. Please can anyone assist?

 * Hi Helen,
 * First enable them from here:

 * Then try adding widgets to the footer.
 * Thanks!
