Remove Footer Widgets From Any Page In Genesis

This tutorial provides 2 ways to remove the footer widgets in any Genesis child theme.

Based on this question from a member of the StudioPress community forums :

Your solution works perfectly for eliminating the sub-footer on outreach pro. However the 4-column footer remains.

1. To remove the footer widgets, add the following line of code to the front-page.php file before the closing genesis(); tag

remove_action( 'genesis_before_footer', 'genesis_footer_widget_areas' );

2. You can add the following code to your child themes functions file.

Change the is_front_page conditional tag to remove the footer widgets from other pages.

Note : The code will work in any Genesis child theme as long as its not already included in the theme.

Tested using the Outreach Pro child theme by StudioPress.
