  Hi.
  I am trying to add a footer to the bottom of my blog. This is where I would like to add that “fine print” that mentions copyright info and provides a link to “terms and conditions”, disclaimer, etc. I am using the Expound Theme. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
  Thank you!

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

  You place the information your want to add in a text widget and use position absolute to have the text in that widget appear in the footer. That said I do not help with CSS editing. Please be patient while waiting for another Volunteer or Staff to help you by providing specific instructions.

  If you’re adding plain text only, you can do it with a bit of CSS like this:

  .site-info:before {
      content: "Put your text here. ";
      display: inline;
  }

  You could do that and put a terms and conditions link in the widget area.

  Or if you wanted to move the text widget you created using absolute positioning, here is an example to get you started:

  #main {
  	position: relative;
  }
  #text-2 {
  	position: absolute;
  	bottom: -180px;
  	left: 40px;
  }
  .site-footer {
  	margin-bottom: 62px;
  }

  Note that you would need to adjust the number values if you change the contents of the text widget or where it’s placed.
