back to top button

Hi there,

The current page you linked is using Elementor Canvas which strips all of GP’s elements.

Does it work on a static page that’s not using Elementor?

Let me know ??

Ah yea, the button was recently hooked into a GP specific hook instead of wp_footer, as that was causing bugs with other plugins.

As Leo said, the Canvas template strips everything GP related out of the page, including our hooks.

Hi Leo and Tom,
I have change the Elementor canvas to full width and now I can see the “back to top button” but in doing so, I now see the GP menu and copyright footer. What is the solution since I’m using Elementor canvas?

Thank you very much
Christian

Hmm I would say that if you are using Canvas then you should be using back to top button from Elementor as well. Or do they not have that option?

I just checked your page again and don’t see back to top or GP’s menu/footer showing.

Hi Leo,
You don’t see it because I went back to canvas waiting for a solution.
There are no “back to top button” in Elementor.

Is there a way not to use GP header and footer? (just like canvas)

Thank you
Christian

Canvas removes the GP header and footer.

Are you wanting to remove the GP copyright and menu on all pages, or only specific pages?

Hi Tom,

On all pages (for others sites), but for this website, only this page since there is only one page.

Thank you

If that’s the case, you can add this CSS:

.site-header,
.site-footer {
    display: none;
}

Hello Tom,

Thank you for all your help, last question about this…
Where do I add the CSS code?
Can I add it with the code snippet plugin?
Sorry about that, I’m still a beginner with WordPress.

Thank’s
Christian

No problem! This article should help: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-css/

Hi Tom,

I have the same problem with a missing ‘back to top’ button, and I am not using Elementor Canvas. I tried to deactivate all plugins, but still no button ?

This is my site

Thanks

Hi Lars,

Are you using any custom template files?

Yes, I have created a custom template for podcasts, but that was more than a year ago, and I am pretty sure, that this issue occured just recently.

If you’re using a custom footer.php file, make sure it contains this hook: https://github.com/tomusborne/generatepress/commit/df1c836dbf441c64bbd63da835123dd811f13f6f

Hi Tom, thanks for helping.

I am using this for a custom footer:

/**
*Fjern temaets normale copyright
*/

add_action('after_setup_theme','generate_copyright_remove_default_message');
function generate_copyright_remove_default_message()
{
		
	remove_action( 'generate_credits', 'generate_add_footer_info' );
	remove_action( 'generate_copyright_line','generate_add_login_attribution' );
}

/**
 * Add the custom copyright
 * @since 0.1
 */
add_action('generate_credits','generate_copyright_add_custom_message');
function generate_copyright_add_custom_message()
{
?>
