Copyright pushed to side bar

  • Hello!

    My url is https://www.eatfreeblog.com. If you look at the bottom of my site, you’ll see that my copyright statement has been pushed to the bottom of my sidebar. It was at the bottom horizontally before then. Please let me know what line in my code I should fix. Thanks so much!

    (Also, my copyright is written in my footer.php. This shift oddly took place after I shifted one of my side widgets down. )

    Hello,

    Your footer DIV is in the sidebar div.
    take it out of the sidebar div and move it one lower
    Below the </div>

    So here’s your source code I can see:
    <div id=”sidebar”>
    <div>blahblahblah</div>
    <div>blahblahblah</div>
    <div>blahblahblah</div>
    <div id=”footer”>
    yourfooterstuffhere
    </div>
    </div>
    Now that means your footer is stuck in sidebar.
    Move it out of the ‘sidebar’ div. Job done.

    Do I go to style css for this? Which line? Thanks so much!

    Not a css issue. It’s with the template and where it’s called. What template is your homepage using?

    Is it static (did you set it to a specific page for the home page in settings?) or is it the index.php file?

    Or more accurately – which file were you playing with when it suddenly happened ??

    I didn’t play with any file, just changed the code for one my widgets so it would move down. I have the cherry dreams template. SO would I go to main index template php?

    So just to clarify, it happened when I tried to move down one my widgets on the sidebar. Next thing I know I see my copyright (which is in my footer.php) on my sidebar. Please let me know which php I should go to to change, as I do not see the codes you listed above. Thanks so much!

    Righto.
    When you were moving the widget down, was that through the dashboard?
    As in you dragged and dropped it?
    Or were you doing it in code?

    Yes, it was from my dashboard. I added this to the top of the widget (“around the plate recipe guru widget”):

    <div style=”margin: 17px 0 0; width:162px !important;overflow:hidden;”>

    And that moved the widget down slightly but then footer is in sidebar the next day. Please help!

    Did you close the div?

    check the content of the ‘recipe guru’ sidebar textwidget:

    <div style="margin: 17px 0pt 0pt; width: 162px ! important; overflow: hidden;">
<a href="https://aroundtheplate.org"><img src="https://www.moranutrition.com/images/PCRecipeGuruBox150px.png"></a>

    and add a </div> at the end if it is not there.

    general: check the validation errors: https://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.eatfreeblog.com%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0

    Thanks everyone for your expertise! Adding the “div” at the end fixed the problem! Thanks again!

    yeh what he said, looks like you’ve got an open Div there mate. close it if it isn’t. Otherwise it’s dragging your footer in.
