It’s probably best if you use your own personal taste to pick a theme that you like first. Then once you’ve done that, someone will be able to tell you specifically how to do what you need done. Most any theme can handle it… some easier than others. But the process will certainly vary from theme to theme. So choose one and we’ll go from there.

It looks as if that area is actually widgetized. Go to Appearance -> Widgets and see if there are any widget areas referring to the footer. If so, it’ll be a text widget in there that most likely has the content you’re looking for.

I’d love to help but I’m having a hard time understanding what the issue is without seeing it live… even if the link doesn’t display, I can view source. Can you link to your site?

WordPress just won’t cooperate with you today. ?? Here’s what you’ll want to do.

Change the site title back to normal… just two words with a space in between them. No need to format it from there. We’ll use CSS for that.

Now in your child theme or some other form of CSS editing protected from updates, you can use the following CSS to target the site title and control its “letter spacing” and “word spacing.”

.site-title {
    word-spacing: 20px;
    letter-spacing: 10px;
}

That should get you off to a good start. Hope this helps!

No problem at all. I’m glad I could help. ??

Find this line in your my_style.css file:

border-top: 5px solid #69babe;

Add a closing curly bracket after it }… it’s missing. All CSS below that missing bracket is useless at this point.

This will bring the menu much closer to the main image.

#content-full {
    margin-top: 0;
}

The gap that remains is for the page title. Do you plan on leaving page titles empty site-wide?

Glad you got it taken care of! That was fast (like it should be) lol. *thumbs up*

Do what I said here and you should be good. https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/fatal-error-call-to-undefined-function-is_bbpress-in-homepages29d396079510?replies=1#post-5470451

It looks like the theme expects bbPress to be installed and activated, yes. It should actually check for that first, though.

Line 653 currently reads:

|| is_bbpress()

Instead, it should be:

|| ( class_exists( 'bbPress' ) && is_bbpress() )

With that change in place, it’ll make sure bbPress is there before it does anything bbPress related. You can make that change in the file yourself but the theme author will need to bake that into the theme for the next update.

It’s really hard to say because there are so many moving pieces that it’s hard for me to test in my browser inspector. But, what I feel like needs to happen is…

Take the CSS I gave you before and put it at the end of the my_style.css file. Assuming that’s the file you put in your last comment, put it at the bottom of all that.

Then from the same file, remove this CSS rule from where it currently sits:

.content-sidebar {
    width: 300px;
}

And put it inside of the media query from the first chunk of CSS I gave you which should now be at the bottom of your file. The end result would be the CSS you have above, minus the .content-sidebar rule, and the following CSS at the very bottom:

@media screen and (min-width: 1008px) {
    .site-content {
        margin-right: 300px;
    }
    .content-sidebar {
        width: 300px;
    }
}

Again, this is something that could take several tweaks so what I’m giving you now could hit the nail on the head or more tweaks could be required. But let’s get that in there and go from there.

Okay the link helps. Again, this is a little more complicated than just a snippet of CSS because your responsive styles will be affected by the changes you make for the desktop styles.

That said, you’ll want to start with the CSS selector I mentioned before. It should be wrapped in the 1008px min-width media query. Making the right margin of the content column only 300px (down from 29.04761904% of 1260px) will bring the right edge of the content to the left edge of the sidebar column (which has an inside padding itself, so it won’t look like they’re flush… but they are.

@media screen and (min-width: 1008px) {
    .site-content {
        margin-right: 300px;
    }
}

And I think some adjustments may have been made to the sidebar width already… there’s a lot of CSS going on so it’s hard to tell what’s custom and what’s part of the theme. But as the screen width is reduced, they layout starts to break… not because of the CSS I’m giving you but because of other changes that have been made already. So I just wanted to point that out ahead of time.

Now it’s important to note that the adjustment I’m giving you for your content column is based on a featured image being there. So on the About page, you’ll see the space reduce as it should. On something like the home page, the space reduces but it’ll still be a huge gape because the 2014 theme design expects a featured image to be wide and the content beneath it to be a little more slim. All you have on the home page, in this case, is the content beneath the non-existent featured image. So… yea…

Anyway, for just what you asked for, the CSS I gave will do the trick. But again, this isa pretty complex layout so there are a lot of things to consider. Let me know if this helps!

It’s definitely best that we see the actual site since you’ve made some style changes to it already.

But that space, at least in default Twenty Fourteen, is controlled by a combination of the following CSS:

• The .site-content column has a heavy right margin. You can reduce it.
• The .content-sidebar column is padding on all four sides. Maybe you can reduce the padding-left property.

Please remember that these values change based on screen size. So when you start adjusting the dimensions of the layout, you may have to play accordion with your screen and make adjustments in multiple media queries.

Haha! Awesome… I’m glad you’re good to go now. ??

Awesome! Glad it worked out for you. ??
