Looking at the themeshaper.com blog theme, I see that Ian added some divs inside the siteinfo div :
<div id="footer">
<div id="siteinfo">
<div id="footer-content">
<div id="about-themeshaper" class="block block-1">
<div id="network-links">
</div>
</div>
<div id="about-theme" class="block block-2">
</div>
<div id="about-services" class="block block-3">This is exactly what I want to do, and I want to know if it's done in functions.php, or by overriding the footer.php file
thanks
The easiest way to do this is in your widget areas. 1st 2nd and 3rd subsidiaries. Use the text widget.
how can i custom made it in function.php? like the one ian use in the site but i'm thinking to have 4 column.

I wanted to do this also. Here's what I did. Caveat: I'm new to WordPress and Thematic ... and I'm just getting started with PHP. In short, I'm no expert. I thought about working on the .php files, but felt I was a little over my head still. So I decided on this very simple solution for now:
Just type all your HTML right into the footer text field in the Thematic Options area on the back end of Wordpress. It seems you can type any kind of html in there. It all is placed inside the "siteinfo" div. I wanted a three-column footer, so I created three divs and put all the content I wanted inside them. (It's all static content, so this was easy, simple html).
Then just position the new divs you created in your child theme's style.css.
The way my footer lays out, I think the "siteinfo" div is kind of unnecessary. It's an extra layer that I don't need. What I originally wanted was another two divs at the same level as "site info". But just putting three new divs inside site info it works fine. It's not as clean as it could be, but someday when my php gets better, maybe I'll go back and look at it all again.
