Pushing the footer down for Shapely WordPress theme

Hey @movin,

I love the theme you guys created. It’s very beautiful and clean but there is one thing about it that I have failed to accept: the footer being placed in the middle of the page when there isn’t enough content to push it down.

I have tried to follow a few tutorials online that make use of <div id=“wrapper”> style of php editing. I guess the real solution uses that but I haven’t been able to figure out where to make the php alterations and what to include in style.css

I have more than enough back ups of the site content both as packages and individual files. Also I have proper ftp access so undoing a mistake is not a big issue. I’m really glad for any help you can give me.

This is the link to my website. I linked to a search page as it is quite empty.

Hi @utkusarioglu,

I hope you are well today and thank you for your question.

To achieve what you want to, you have to develop custom code to make the footer sticky as described on the below pages.

Developing custom code for custom functionality is beyond the scope of support that we provide here.

If you are not a developer then you can consider hiring a developer to develop it for you. You can hire a developer from any freelance site. Colorlib recommends the developer https://www.upwork.com/freelancers/~011652ffec8865c6d5 http://freewptp.com/contact

Best Regards,

I guess I will have to figure it out myself. Thank you though, for all your help with this question and all of the others I have asked before.

I don’t know if I’m allowed to mention this here, I guess you’ll delete it if it’s against the rules.

I figured it out. There is a plugin that allows you to inject code at desired points of html:

after placing <div id=“wrapper”> at head and </div> before </body> the rest was just a simple series of edits in style.css, like it’s mentioned in that wordimpress article above

Thank you Movin! I promise this was the last post:)
