    For my site at: http://smallbusiness.marketingworkslab.com/

    I need to update the Shortly About Us, Contact Us and Our Location Footer widgets at the bottom and put
    in my own information.

    I would like to update the title and the content.

    also, if Iwanted to have two footer widgets and not three, can I do that ? How would I do so ?

    Thanks,

    Fred B.

    1.For your first issue

    You are talking about footer widget area, Go to the
    Appearance > Widgets
    Drag text widgets and add your content and drop them in the first, second and third widget area, It will automatically display at your footer.


    2.For your second issue

    Go to sidebar-footer.php present in your theme directory and follow the instruction as shown in image given below

    Thank you.

    For my site: http://smallbusiness.marketingworkslab.com/blog/

    At the bottom, in the "Contact Us" widget, the text I have entered is not showing up.
    I put the following in the text area, see below:. I believe the Text Widget can handle html code, right ?


    Code:
    <!-- begin footer widget-->
    <p><b>Street Address: </b>5544 Main St. Suite 44
    </p>
    <p><b>City, State: </b>Metro City, MA
    </p>
    <p><b>Phone: </b>1.888.555.4455</p>
    <p> Integer non nunc libero, et porttitor lorem. Curabitur orci ante, facilisis eget ullamcorper eget, congue eget nulla. </p>
    <p>Aliquam ligula libero, pharetra vitae rutrum ac, iaculis sit amet lorem!
     
      Integer augue felis, faucibus eget viverra quis, vehicula a augue! </p>
    <!-- End footer widget-->

    Paste this code in Custom CSS
    Appearance > Theme Option > Styling Option > Custom CSS
    Code:
    .footer-wrapper .footer_widget .textwidget p{
    color:#fff;
    }
    Now, the html code will work fine in text widget area.

    Thank you. That worked. That changes the foreground color ?

    One more question ( not sure how to do this )
    at my site: http://smallbusiness.marketingworkslab.com, at the bottom, below the footer widgets, on the bottom left
    where it says: zzapbs WordPress - Just another WordPress site

    Instead of that I would like to have some links, that looks like the following:

    Home | Site Map | About Us | Contact Us | Misc

    Where this would appear at the bottom of ALL pages.

    Go to footer.php present in your theme directory and replace current code
    Code:
      <p><a href="<?php echo home_url(); ?>"><?php echo get_bloginfo('name'); ?> - <?php echo get_bloginfo('description'); ?></a></p>
    with

    Code:
                <p><a href="enter url"> enter your text here </a> |  <a href="enter url">enter your text here </a> | <a href="enter url">enter your text here </a> | <a href="enter url">enter your text here </a></p>
    Sending image for reference
