    Site is under construction using a customized blank theme. WP ver 3.7.4 http://gracechurchhouston.com

    On my blog page the footer cuts across the blog posts and it appears my footer is at an absolute position since it is at exactly the same spot on all pages. I need the footer to appear at the end of the final blog post/excerpt on Blog page. I have tried changing settings for footer in the css and currently have set at position: absolute (i tried relative but it lowered the address content on the right side inside the footer) and #footer-container set at position: relative which works for home page but will not work on the Blog page and probably won’t work on the About or Media pages either once i get all the content completed there. Thanks for your help.

    Try adding “clear: both;” to the CSS selectors in footer { … } ( after line 395 in your style.css) and removing the “position: absolute;”.

    Thanks very much! That worked perfectly. Simple wisdom, quick solution. I appreciate your response.

    Side note: is there a way to view line numbers in the WP Editor? You mentioned line 395 but i didn’t see numbers so just added the line per your description. oh… just googled it.. needs a plugin.

    Thanks again!

    Typically a text editor is easiest for viewing line numbers, such as Sublime Text (which is an amazing text editor for developers btw).
