Hi,
how can I keep the footer on the Spun Theme always visible?
Now there is the circle with the + to open it, but I’d rather to show it open in any page of the blog.
Please, let me know.
Thanks,
Daniela

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

We Volunteers cannot view private blogs so we cannot examine what you have done and assist you. Staff can view private blogs and that is why I tagged this thread for Staff assistance. Please subscribe to this thread so you are notified when they respond. To subscribe look in the sidebar of this thread, find the subscribe to topics link and click it.

Here is the link to the detailed theme description page http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/spun/

If what you want to change is not an option designed into the theme then you will need to purchase an upgrade.

WordPress.com sells bundles upgrades. We can “preview” changes in the theme customizer that do not actually display on the blog unless we purchase the upgrade.

If you have not purchased the Premium bundle that contains the custom design upgrade note that no changes you try out aside from those such as Custom Background, Custom Header, etc. which are stated on the theme description pages in the features column (right hand side) will be visible to visitors.
Premium bundle details http://store.wordpress.com/plans/premium/
http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/
http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/editing-css/
http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/custom-fonts/

If you are using the preview mode for the Custom Design upgrade some of the settings in that mode will save but they won’t show up on the front end unless you purchase the upgrade.

To go back to the free options, go to Appearance → Themes → Customize → Colors and click the “exit the preview” link in yellow at the top of the panel on the right.

Hi there

Please note that the Spun theme was designed this way. If you want to make the footer stay, you will need to purchase the WordPress.com Premium upgrade which includes Custom Design. With that you can edit CSS. If you decide to purchase it, go to Appearance → Customize → CSS and add the following:
```
.widget-area {
    display: block !important;
}
.sidebar-link {
    display: none;
}
```
That will make the footer stick.

Cheers!

@danielapavy – since your account is 5 years old you don’t need to buy the $99.-/yr Premium for the CSS upgrade but should be able to buy the CSS upgrade for $30.-/yr – save you some money if you don’t need all the extra stuff
