• The footer area spacing is a little too much for our website. Is there any way it can be reduced?

  • Hi

    If there’s a white space between your footer and the element above it then you should check if there’s any margin/padding added on both the elements or is there any empty element in between that is taking the space.

    Kind Regards

    Hi @prak1,

    Have you tried custom CSS for your site?

    In the dashboard click on “Appearance”=>”Customize” then at the bottom “Additional CSS”.

    After that add your CSS code.

    Check this tutorial it includes an explanatory video and it suggests the use of plugins.

    Hi @fakhriaz,

    I need help with the CSS. There seems to be a gap (white space) between the footer menu element and the copyright element. I totally removed the social elements from the footer. Tried keeping the footer elements padding to zero, didn’t help.

    Best,
    Prak

    Hi @prashantvatsh

    Yes! there is white space between the copyright element of the footer and the footer menu element. I tried using the CSS with 0px padding on the top and the bottom, but it didn’t work.

    Best,

    Hi

    Using developer tools you can check which element is creating the issue.

    If you would like specific advice on CSS code to use, we’ll need a live link to the page in question so we can see for ourselves. We would then use developer tools like Prashant suggests to determine the appropriate CSS.

    I recommend trying to use the tool yourself. If you learn how to use it, you can then adjust other elements on your site on your own. It can be very empowering to have such fine control over your site 🙂 But if it’s too confusing, that’s OK, but then we’ll need that link.
