Go to WP admin area, Appearance -> Fixed Widget Options. Here you can define top and bottom margins. Set bottom margin value >= footer height. Check the result. = Why plugin is not working? = There are several reasons: 1. Widgets have no unique IDs. How to check. Place two text widgets in your sidebar. Then look at html source of your site. If these two widgets have the same IDs (widget_text) or they have no IDs at all - that's the problem. How to fix. Find `register_sidebar()` function (look first at functions.php file). Parameter `before_widget` should be like this: `
  • `. Attention to this part: `id="%1$s"`. 2. Javascript errors on page. Commonly caused by buggy plugins. Check javascript console of your browser.
