Problem on child pages – footer bleeds to top of page

    I’m new to wordpress and have searched and tried to figure this out but I’m stuck.

    Everything is fine on parent pages but when a child page is clicked, it seems like the footer is bleeding (if that’s even possible) to the top and displaying the title of the page. The “Share This” plugin icon is also showing.

    Wondering if anyone can shed some light on this.

    Website is:

    I’m using the elegant grunge theme.

    NOt really sure if I should post any code so please let me know if I should.

    Thanks

    You have not closed some html elements properly thats why that part of the theme is broken.:
    Run your site through the validator at https://validator.w3.org/ to see the errors.
    example @ line 133, Column 21
    <p style=”text-align: justify;”>
    <div id=’tweetbacks’>
    you should close the p first.

    Thank you for this information. I’m just too new at this and I don’t understand which file to edit. Since it’s the home page, I would assume it’s the index file – but I can’t see it. I can see the code when I view the source through the browser, but can’t find the file on my server. I’ve looked and looked.

    Thanks,
    W

    PS, I’m considering just hiring someone to fix it – can anyone recommend someone? I just tried getting some help from liveperson.com but the person seemed not to understand how to fix it either and in the end couldn’t help.

    You might consider trying the WordPress Jobs or the WP-Pro’s mailing list.

    In case anyone was wondering – I found the problem. In the header.php file, the PHP code relating to the title was outside the title tag

    Once I put it back in between the title tag, all was back to normal.

    Cheers,
