 * I’m doing Nu Html Checker on [https://validator.w3.org](https://validator.w3.org)
   to validate my site, I found error which saying:
 * > Element style not allowed as child of element body in this context. (Suppressing
   > further errors from this subtree.)
 * It turns out the code comes from footer.php precesely from <?php wp_footer();?
   >
 * Where is <?php wp_footer(); ?> located?

 * Hi there!
 * The function can be found in the `footer.php` file. Though I am curious as to
   why you are wanting to find this function as it is a _needed_ function ( a hook
   really ) in order for the theme and all your plugins to work.

 * Hi [@zhares24](https://wordpress.org/support/users/zhares24/),
 * I hope you are well today and thanks for posting here.
 * As Jose said above you will find the function wp_footer call in the following
   file of the theme on line number 39
 * sparkling/footer.php
 * This function is used to hook something in the footer so i think you may be using
   some plugin that is adding the style element in the body tag by hooking to this
   function.
 * So please try temporary deactivating all plugins and see whether everything works
   fine and then enable the plugins one by one to see which plugin is conflicting
   if any.
 * Best Regards,
    Movin
