Can anyone give me a clue how to add a footer image at the end of each post as a part of the theme?

Are you proficient at editing PHP code?

I think you want to look for this code in page.php and possibly others:

<?php the_content('Read the rest of this page &raquo;'); ?>


and add a new div class (which you have pre-defined in the style sheet) after that with all your image info.

It's going to take a little trial and error.

Are you proficient if someone tells me what to put, and where to put it! I don't know PHP, but can edit the file. If you have the code please let me know and I'll try my had at that.

meant to put "I am", not "Are you" above - the hazards of cut and paste! :-@

Well, the reason I ask is that it's not just one edit, it is many, across many files. Posts are assembled from several different sources, such as the archives page, the search page and the main page.

Also, you'd need to add entries to the CSS file.

And this is not really related to the Artisteer product either. These changes are to specific Wordpress files as well.

Might be documentation on the Wordpress site as to all the places you could make these changes, I'll see if I can find them.

Marc - I appreciate all your help. I'm up to the challenge. If you can find some documentation on it I am willing to give it a try.

Thank you! Lisa

Just a clue, the post metadata section is the 'end' of your posts
