    Good day,

    I’m trying to edit or create a simple footer. I’d like to ad a few menu items and my social media icons to the wordpress copyright footer but I’ve only been able to change the text in that footer.

    So I created a 3 column footer with text menu items in the left side and social icons in the right side. However, the footer is full width but is really tall. Physically like 3″ tall.

    Is there a way to reduce the height of the footer ?

    thanks

    Hi AJCVET – most footer areas are controlled by the theme directly. Sounds like this is a layout design from the authors of the theme. You may need to use a childtheme to code a custom footer.php file, or use custom CSS to change things. I’d suggest connecting directly with your theme authors in their support area to ask them how to make those changes easily.

    Thanks

    I’ll contact the theme people about their footer css.

    however, is there a way to change the footer menu height in WordPress ?

    Yes – looks like your CSS has a large Top / Bottom padding on

    .footer-widgets

    If you put this code into your custom CSS box it could help

    .footer-widgets {
    padding: 15px 0;
    }

    If there’s too short – just change the number 15 to something else.

    Glad it worked for you.

    Not too sure which area specifically you mean but try adding this to your css

    .site-footer {
    display: none;
    }
