  I was trying out the Baskerville 2 theme in the Try & Customize mode. I added a few widgets to Footer 2. Then I added one to Footer 1. It didn’t seem right because I expected each footer to be stacked vertically rather than horizontally, so I went on to the other footer to delete some of the widgets and… no possibility to do it! you can move them up and down in the same footer OR move them to another footer but you cannot delete the widget you added. That seems plain wrong, if you make a mistake you are done! no trash icon there at all.

  Hi,

  On removing widgets:
  There is a Delete link in the configuration options of every WordPress.com widget, regardless of the theme used. See the Removing Widgets section of the Widgets support page.

  The social menu doesn’t exist either, that theme is totally broken!

  See the Social Links Menu section of the Baskerville 2 overview. It’s necessary to set up a social links menu, as described in the Add a Social Links Menu support page, before it can be displayed on a site while using the Baskerville 2 theme.
