Search Bar and Log-In on Footer Navbar

Permalink
Hey everyone. I have created a footer navbar to house non-content links (search, log-in, contact us, and disclaimers when it is all said and done) however, both search and log-in seem to be more limited as they require block areas. Is there any way around using content blocks to add a search bar, and to utilize pop-up login in the footer navbar?

Thanks

You could use the popup login extensionhttp://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/popup-login/... and you could make more block areas instead of just one. And for those different block areas you can use different style ID's for example:
<div id="footerleft">
<?php  $a = new Area('Footerleft'); 
      $a->display($c); 
      ?>
</div>
<div id="footercenter">
<?php  $a = new Area('Footercenter'); 
      $a->display($c); 
      ?>
</div>
<div id="footerright">
<?php  $a = new Area('Footerright'); 
      $a->display($c); 
      ?>
</div>

The only issue I have after this is in edit mode the three sections seem to be hidden under stuff. I will try z-index work but what other solutions are there?

After that, you can try to add a padding-bottom to the main. So that if you scroll all the way down, it is on top of the content.
