   I'm trying to remove footer from individual pages using the following css code (with the page id, obviously, pointing to the page on my site I want to change)

   body.page-id-2800 td#footer {
   display:none;
   }

   and applying it in the custom css file – but without success. Does this code look right? Is this the correct way of going about removing the footer from individual pages? Thanks

   nobody will be able to tell without seeing your site live.

   using a tool such as Firebug http://getfirebug.com/ might help you to get clarity about what style to use.

   My mistake. Here's my site – http://golovegreece.com/

   What I want to do is have ads in the footer on the front page, but not have these ads appear in subsequent pages.

   I've got Firebug. How would I use it in this instance? Thanks

   The code you created would never work. That style does not exist on your theme.
   The styles on your footer is used sitewide(all pages/posts) so, using "display none" is not going to work.

   One method would be replicating your footer.php, naming that copy to footer-2.php
   Now, go to page.php, at the bottom, find and change the get_footer so it looks like:
   

   <?php get_footer('2'); ?>

   By this way, your posts will use footer.php and pages, footer-2.php. Add your ads to footer.php

   in your case it might work with:

   #footer { display: none; }
   .home #footer { display: block; }

   however, it might be more efficient to wrap the ad code into a conditional statement;
   in footer.php:

   example:

   <?php if( is_home() || is_front_page() ) : ?>
   the code for the two ads here
   <?php endif; ?>

   I tried both the footer-2.php method and using the code:

   #footer { display: none; }
   .home #footer { display: block; }

   and both seemed to do the trick, giving me greater control of where ads appear in page and post footers, which is what I was after, so many thanks for this.
