Footer spacing
10 replies · Started by Lars on August 7, 2020
Hi,
I'm building the footer with the block element and it's going pretty well.
But I have two issues.
I have a grid with two columns at the bottom (split 50/50) with the copyright to the left and social icons to the right.
In the back-end it looks fine - but in the front-end the social icons get squeezed into the copyright part.
Another issue I'm struggling with is how do I remove the tiny amount of white space at the bottom of the page. There is no margin in the footer block but there still comes a stripe of white space below it on the page.
Thanks for any advice!
Hi there,
can you provide a screenshot of how it should look?
Edit your block element and delete the empty paragraph block at the bottom.
Thanks!
Sure. Here it's how it looks like in the front-end when logged-in: https://ln2.sync.com/dl/124648120/h68jhjqz-d9huf9cr-dqesfg2a-n2mwvypq
But I just noticed the icons are correctly placed when I'm not logged in. Not sure why that is - but it doesn't matter very much - as long as it looks fine for visitors.
Everything seems to work fine on the entire site except for on this page for some reason where the footer is broken: https://agenturer.no/advokatbistand/
I thought it was related to the Asset cleanup plugin but doesn't help to deactivate it.
Do you have any idea why there is an issue on this page? Shouldn't be anything special about it.
Thanks for any advice.
Kind regards

Any chance you can disable all plugins except GP Premium to eliminate conflicts from other plugins first?
Let me know :)
Yes. It's the same issue on the staging site.
I deactivating every plugin there (except GP and GenerateBlocks) and the footer is still broken:

It's just a quick test footer - but the alignment of the buttons and background is not there as on the other pages.
Very strange. Let me know if you have any idea why.
Kind regards

It seems none of the GenerateBlocks CSS is being generated.
What happens if you turn on Inline Embedding as the CSS print method in "Settings > GenerateBlocks"?
Changed to Inline Embedding now but still the same.
Also tried to click the "Regenerate files" but no effect.
But the footer looks fine on all other pages.
Very strange.
Solved.
I removed all the text from the page - and updated the page.
Then the footer came back.
Now idea why it worked but happy it did.
Thanks for your great help and support!
Have a wonderful weekend!
OK. I have pinpointed the exact cause of the problem.
Inside the text block there was the following code:
<p><!-- /wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --></p>
Not sure what it was doing there or how it got there. But when that is removed it works fine - and when I put it back in the issue reappears.
Glad you got it sorted - thanks for letting us know :)
