• Hi there.

    http://the-fischer-group.com

    As you can see on my site, the footer is stretching passed the main content area on the right, which is 960px wide. I have been stuck on this problem for a while now and have not found a solution. If anyone has any solutions, it would be greatly appreciated.

    Please Help.

    Which theme has the issue?

    It is a custom theme, initially we used a designer to build the site.

    Hi,

    The problem consists on the padding value. Please go to your css and find the line with:

    .wrapper {
        margin: 0 auto;
        width: 960px;
    }

    replace on this

    .wrapper {
        margin: 0 auto;
        width: 960px;
        height: 100%;
        overflow: hidden;
    }

    The next find this line:

    #footer {
        background-color: #454648;
        padding: 15px 25px 10px;
    }

    And replace it on this:

    #footer {
        background-color: #454648;
        padding: 15px 25px 10px;
        width: 910px;
    }

    That’s all. 🙂

    The thing is, I can’t find that first wrapper in my css. Is it possible for you to see it on firebug or whatever you are using and for it to physically not exist in my style.css in my editor?

    Firebug shows you where all styles are coming from – in this case, #wrapper is in reset.css.

    In any case, you don’t need to find that anyway – just ADD changes to the bottom of the style.css file.
