I am not much of a designer. I want to know how I can create Wix like buttons in Photoshop.
They offer many kinds of buttons, but I want the one with a shadow on both sides of its bottom. Any help would be appreciated.
Answer
This is a common question but usually for code. To create this in Photoshop:
- New layer in Photoshop
- Draw rectangle slightly smaller below
- Fill with black
- Filter>Gaussian Blur
- radius around 5-7 pixels, play with the settings
- Edit > Transform > Warp
- Drop opacity around 20%

Free .psd files here for shadows.
Code
Personally if it is going to be within a site I would code it. To learn how to code it you can review stack's answer here. A drop shadow generator here and another option here.
EDIT: After looking at your example be aware that is done twice. The layer is with an opacity of around 80-90% and warped closer to the edge and then duplicated with a wider shadow changed to around 15-20% and stretched.
