footer overlaying articles

Posted in: Newspaper
Post count: 22

Updated the theme today and found that the div .td-footer-wrapper is overlaying the whole article on individual posts.
I’ve made it transparent for now just so the article is visible, but if anyone can advise on what needs to be fixed I’d be grateful. Thanks.

Follow up:
Further testing shows that this is an issue with the “default” post template which seems to have whole .td-footer-wrapper section in the “wrong” place.

I’ve tried deleting the whole newspaper theme directory and replacing it with the latest version, just in case there was an old copy of the template left in there, but still no change.

Please advise asap.

Thanks,

Tim

Hi,

I have checked your site and did not found any issues with the footer container – http://screencast.com/t/72hIDToxK9r Did you solved this? Please clear cache and also the browser’s cache – https://kb.iu.edu/d/ahic

Thanks!

Yes, I “fixed” it by using an alternate post layout as described above. The “default” post layout still shows this error. All caches cleared of course.

Hello,
Please try to disable all your plugins except visual composer, clear your cache and purge cdn files if you use it. If it’s not a plugin conflict, please try to use a default footer to see if the error is still there. maybe some of the widgets in the footer were not added properly.
Let us know how it goes.
Thank you!

Thanks for that, we tried all that first time around to check – we’ve just done it again – cleared all caches again etc etc, and still the issue remains. We’ve also noticed that on the homepage the padding for the footer section is gone:

We’ve tried using various footer layouts to get one to work – but without success.

Hi,

Do you have any custom modifications to the the default post template? If you do please remove it.
If you don’t please use pastebin.com and provide both files content loop-single.php and single.php so I can check this on my side as I could not recreate this.

Thanks!

No mods to the templates at all in the child theme.

Hello,
Unfortunately i could not recreate the issue. The code from your files does not cause the error. I could not find any errors so the issue most likely comes from some place else. Please try to check all your modifications if you have them anywhere else to see if there are no open tags. If everything else fails, you will need to do a fresh install of your theme. The ftp way is the best choice. Do a back-up of your modified files and use this method to install the theme: https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/
Thank you!

Thanks,
We’ve already done a fresh install via ftp on Dec 1, and it made no difference 🙁
Any other clues?

Hi,

Set the default template(or the one with this issue) on an individual post and provide the link so we can inspect this and we will try to find a solution.

Thanks!

So here’s the default template issue:

You can see the homepage footer padding issue on the homepage live:

This 2nd issue only seems to affect the homepage, other articles/post and other pages seem unaffected.

Thanks,

Tim

NB, we also have the white admin bar issue on the homepage too – is that connected?
