Archive-like Pages “Bottom” Widget Area

[williamweaver]

There is an Archive-like Pages “Top” Widget Area but none for Bottom. Of course, I have no need for a Top, but I do have a need for a Bottom. lol

Possible?

If you are not using the Sitewide Bottom widget area or the Page Bottom Widget Area, we could make one of these display only on archive pages with Custom CSS

I’m not using, nor intended to, the Sitewide Bottom widget area. If I can use that on Archive pages it would be A#1.

Simple way, use the sitewide bottom widget area then add the rules below in Main Options > Fonts & Custom > Custom CSS Rule box

#sitewide-bottom-widget-area {display:none;}
.archive #sitewide-bottom-widget-area {display:block;}

Cons with that method is that the area is always loaded just not shown on non archive pages.

To avoid loading it, you could instead use he Dynamic Widgets plugin , and use Dynamic widgets to only show the widgets you put in there on archive pages

Thank-you, that worked a charm. 🙂
