I would like to add a footer to my website to put all the legal stuff in there. Looks like in WordPress wp_footer() is made for that. I installed the “Insert Headers and Footers” plugin (which claims to use wp_footer() and put my stuff in there. Seemed to work.
Until I tried to switch to another language (qTranslate X plugin) and then the site didn’t load properly (the classic menu didn’t appear for example) and the footer didn’t show either. What can you say about supporting the wp_footer() function?
Sidenote: it would be great, if the shortcodes were available in the footer as well
I tried another plugin and then changed the footer content. Looks like breaking of the theme was caused by some of the content (qTranslate X related stuff), but the shortcode still doesn’t work.
Not sure what exactly you mean by “shortcodes work in the text widget also”
Okay, that’s what I figured. I don’t know what you mean by “text widget” though. I assume that you are meaning to say that the shortcodes should work in the footer as well.
They don’t seem to do that for me. I can, of course use the actual HTML and all looks well, but that’s not the same. The actuall shortcodes appear on the site, when I attempt to put them into the footer
