Footer with more than 6 columns in 1 row
10 replies · Started by Eva on August 23, 2022
Hi,
I am using the footer element to make a footer with 7, 8 or even more columns to show some clickable logos, trying to achieve something like this: https://aperfectday.amsterdam/. I used a grid with 6 columns, but I will need to add more logos and I can't figure out how. There is probably a better way to do this (columns?). Moreover it doesn't work properly on mobile.
Also I would like to add more info (address, mailchimp form etc) in the footer. I would like to know if I should add this to the footer element or use the footer widgets.
Thank you for your help!

Hi Eva,
Do you want the logos to stay in 1 line on mobile as well like the example site?
If so, try this CSS:
.gb-grid-wrapper.gb-grid-wrapper-8ce7c80d > .gb-grid-column {
width: auto;
}
.gb-grid-wrapper.gb-grid-wrapper-8ce7c80d {
flex-wrap: nowrap;
}
To vertically align the logos, select the Grid block, set the vertical alignment to center.
I would like to know if I should add this to the footer element or use the footer widgets.
You can add them within the same element.
Hi Ying,
Thank you for your super fast reply! I want to have the logos in 1 line on desktop and all mobile devices. So I added the css, but now it looks weird on mobile. The logo's are quite big and don't scale anymore on mobile... Is there another solution maybe? And how can I add extra grid columns?
Thank you again,
Eva
Hey! I just found out that it works when I just use part of the CSS:
.gb-grid-wrapper.gb-grid-wrapper-8ce7c80d {
flex-wrap: nowrap;
}
So thank you, Ying!
The only thing is that the logo's won't scale of mobile. Any solution?
Thanks again,
Eva
Hi there,
are you wanting to keep all the logos in a single row on mobile ? But also make the logos larger ?
As thats not possible without the logos overflowing the screen or wrapping to new rows.
Hi David,
Thanks for your fast reply. Yes, I would like to keep the logos in 1 row on mobile. Actually, it looks quite good now in 1 row on my android phone. I don't need the logos to be bigger, sorry for not being clear.
It would be great though if I could make the logo's scalable so the are sharp on any device. But I don't know if that's possible...
Thanks again.
Aah ok, the best solution would be if the Logos were created as an SVG ( eg. in Illustrator ) so there are no pixels as such. Do you know if the original logos could be supplied as SVGs ?
Thank you, David,
We were thinking about this, so I will ask them if the can supply SVG's. From what I understand I should use a plugin like SVG support to upload add SVG's, right?
Thats correct, you will require SVG Support or a similar plugin to allow you to upload the SVGs to your site.
Thanks again. So far I have uploaded 1 SVG logo using the Safe SVG plugin. Works well, waiting for more logos now.
So, I think I can mark this topic as Resolved :-)
Thanks for the great support, as always!
Glad to be of help!
