[Support request] Footer Bar Customization

[Shaquib]

I want to customize the footer of my website. As you can see in the screenshot the navigation menu which I have added in the footer bar is appearing on the left side. But I want it to be in the center. Please help me with that.

Hi there,

Any chance you can link us to the page in question?

You can use the private information field:

Let me know 🙂

Here is the image of the footer bar: https://prnt.sc/x_-zAVT4soAT

Hi there,

add this CSS to your site:

.footer-bar .widget_nav_menu {
    text-align: center;
}

[Shaquib]

It doesn’t change anything. I have added the code in the additional css area.

Can you disable the Ezoic CSS optimizations ?
I would recommend you keep them disabled whilst developing the site.

[Shaquib]

I have disabled the ezoic CSS optimizations and the problem is still not resolved. Please take a deeper look at the issue.

[David]

Try this method:

.footer-bar .widget_nav_menu > div > ul {
    justify-content: center;
}

Just to note – i still many optimizations from Ezoic on the site…. they make it very hard to debug issues using the browser developer tools.

Thanks! this one worked.
I would like to make the gap between these three lines equal in the footer bar. How to achieve that.
Also, I would like to change the link color of the pages in the footer.

[David]

The justify-content: center; has other values.

Try:

justify-content: space-between;

or

justify-content: space-around;

The link color you can change in the Customizer > Colors > Footer

I have tried all the different variations of the code you suggested but didn’t get the result I am looking for. I want the last line, i.e. copyright line and the 2nd line with links, to have equal spacing. (meaning between 2 lines vertically).

Is there no way to customize the footer bar without the code?. How can the generateblocks help in building a custom footer bar? Can I do it with generateblocks free or do I have to buy the paid version.

Also, there is a bug in the generatepress theme in the footer widget. When I have selected to have only 3 widgets in the footer. The theme still shows 5 widgets. Please fix this if this is a bug.

[David]

You can do it with Block Elements and the free GenerateBlocks.
This article explains how:

I don’t see the issue with the number of footer widgets on your site – as i don’t see any normal widgets just the Ezoic adverts.
