 * Hi,
 * I’m trying to create my first wordpress blog with the evolve lite theme.
 * I’m testing this theme currently as I will probably purchase the pro version 
   down the line.
 * I like this theme, very professional and clean design, but I’m having some difficulty
   in certain customizations.
 * Here are the problems I encountered:
 * -This is my biggest concern, how to add a footer area? I want to show some links
   such as pages in the bottom of the homepage.
 * I tried the add menu option but in the menu options it shows:
 * Theme locations:
    Sticky Header Navigation Primary Menu
 * I also tried the footer widget methhod suggested in the forum, it kind of works
   but not how I expected.
 * Example:
 * -I added a single column widget to the footer
 * -Deployed Pages widget to that area.
 * Now all the pages which were showing in the header horizontally are showing in
   the footer and also vertically which doesnot look nice.
 * What I wanted to do was to add some new pages to the footer, which appear the
   same way as in the header,can this be done?
 * -I have tried countless times to change the font size and color of the site title
   and tagline, but the changes doesnot take effect even when I Save&Publish.
 * -How to disable google map api from contact page? I don’t want to use this feature
   nw.
 * Currently it is showing the following error:
 * “Oops! Something went wrong.
    This page didn’t load Google Maps correctly. See
   the JavaScript console for technical details. “
 * -How to decrease the header space area where site title and tagline is located?
 * -How to change the color of the page titles that are shown on the homepage?
 * -How to edit the sidebar to show custom links?
 * Pardon me, these may be beginner questions but i could not find the solution 
   in the help docs.
 * WordPress version = 4.6
 * evolve lite version = 3.6.4
 * Thank you.

 * Hi,
 * It’s not possible for user here to help you with a long list of questions. They
   should be broken up and posted as individual questions.

   > links such as pages in the bottom of the homepage.
 * You should use footer widget area.
    You can enable it in **Theme Options -> Footer-
   > Footer Widgets** Find the setting -> **Number of widget cols in footer** Then
   you will be able to deploy a **custom menu widget** to this area.
 * In WordPress, it’s possible to set a menu with custom links.
 * > What I wanted to do was to add some new pages to the footer, which appear the
   > same way as in the header,can this be done?
 * I assume you are referring to the menu in header.
    Nope, it’s not possible, there
   is no menu in footer.
 * You can add links in your custom footer.
    T**heme Options -> Footer -> Custom
   Footer**
 * Thank you.

 * Thank you Denzel once again you came to the rescue.
 * Do the official developers of evolve theme ever respond here? Or perhaps even
   read the problems of lite users?
 * I think I will start testing another theme, can you recommend any based on my
   questions?

 * Hi,
 * Some premium themes may suit your requirements, but as per WordPress forum rules,
   I cannot make any recommendation here.
 * Thank you.
