Customizing Widget Footers in Genesis Themes

I was pleased to see how easy it was to change the Genesis sample theme footer widgets. There were 3 widgets, and with a few simple changes to code, there are now 4 widgets.

#1 Edit Child Theme File – Funtions.php

Update widget number to 4.

add_theme_support( 'genesis-footer-widgets', 4 );

#2 Edit Child Theme File – Style.css

Update calculation of footer widget area to 4.

.footer-widget-area {
    float: left;
    margin-bottom: 0;
    width: calc(100% / 4);

Done!
