Fixed footer disabled by Gtranslate in OceanWP theme.

Hi,

Currently I do not see the fixed footer, I guess you have disabled that option.

If you enable it I can check it for you. I would check the CSS rules applied to parent html tag when GTranslate is enabled and when it is disabled to see the difference.

Thanks! ??

Hi,

Thanks for your help!

Correct, the fixed footer option was turned off, I turned it on again just now.

Kind regards,
Annie

@edo888,

Hi,

Could you, by any chance, have a look at the site now the fixed footer is activated again please?

Thanks,
Annie

@edo888,

Hi,

It’s been a week since you asked me to activate the fixed footer.
You probably are very busy, but I would very much appreciate if you could have a look at the site now the fixed footer is activated again, please?

The fixed footer works just fine without this plugin, so it looks like there is something in this plugin that stops it from working?

Thanks,
Annie

Hi,

Are you sure the fixed footer is activated? I have just checked again and I see a regular footer without any effects.

Thanks! ??

Hi, thanks a lot for your help.

Just checked and is activated…strange.

See the settings in the theme options, please:

Hi,

Can you provide a screenshot of the issue? Best will be with GTranslate off then on.

I cannot spot the issue you are describing right now with GTranslate enabled.

Thanks! ??

Thanks, will make a short video and get back to you!

Hi,

Created a short video for you, so you can see the issue:
https://app.screencast.com/rIvsdB2cSKwo2?conversation=8DQFFhOmO9VWqxx95yKaxH

Quick note to my video, in the last minute I tell you that the issue does not happen when your plugin is active, while being logged in as an administrator, but in the video the plugin was still deactivated, so you might think that is not accurate. But I can confirm that, as long as I am logged in, the footer stays fixed, although your plugin is active.

So it is only a problem for visitors on the front end, that are not logged in.

Thanks!
Annie

Hi,

Right now I do not see GTranslate activated, but I guess I know what it is, I had to zoom out the page to see the fixed footer on my screen.

I see that your theme sets margin-top:auto; on footer element for it to be fixed:
<footer id="footer" class="site-footer" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/WPFooter" role="contentinfo" style="margin-top: auto;">

I see that the footer tag is inside wrap element <div id="wrap" class="clr"></div> which wraps all your HTML elements including footer element. I believe that when you add GTranslate it is not inside the wrap element, so the calculation for margin top does not work properly.

I believe you need to contact your theme developer about this or possibly position the GTranslate selector manually directly inside your theme inside id=”wrap” element for it to function properly. You can use <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[gtranslate]’); ?> inside the correct theme file and correct location inside the file, I cannot mention exactly which file and which location it is, so please consult your developer about that.

BTW. You see that issue when you are logged in, because there is a top bar for logged in users and I believe it is also outside of the wrap element.

Thanks! ??

Hi Edo888,

Thanks for investigating.
I will contact the theme developer and tell him what you said.

Kind regards,
Annie
