webform results appearing in 'Home Footer' Sidebar – CiviCRM related

I have been using the CiviCRM plugin with Enlightenment and am working on setting up a Contribution page where people can donate money through the website. using this CiviCRM Contribution feature I have been able to embed a Contribution webform into a wp Page using CiviCRM shortcode. All is fine until I submit a test contribution — the resulting Page replicates the resulting webform into the custom footer i set up for the website in Appearance -> Widgets -> Home Footer -> Custom Query (List->4 Columns->Multiple Pages), clobbering the hyperlinks i normally have with the webform results.

I.e., once I submit the Contribution webform I see the resulting “Thank you” webform result 5 places in the Page.. in the main page content (<div class=”container”..) and 4 times in the custom footer/Enlightenment “Sidebar”. When viewing the page source, ‘<div id=”crm-container”‘ appears 5 times, each inside ‘<div class=entry-content’ — once inside ‘<div class=”container”‘ and 4 times in ‘<div id=”sidebar-footer”‘

Here is a grab of the first 2 columns in the footer/Sidebar before and after submitting the webform..

Seems like the source of the problem has something to do with CiviCRM not expecting there to be Pages embedded in the footer/Home Footer Sidebar in the bottom of the page.
Any ideas for a workaround? I would be fine with disabling the sidebars altogether the webform and resulting page if it would allow be to get Contribution page going.. not really sure how to go about this tho…
