Pinterest iframe adding extra space below footer

    We installed Flare on a couple of sites and enabled display on single posts and a few custom post type pages.

    Not long afterwards, we noticed extra space appearing below the footer section of the pages on sites where the footer had a background color that was different from the main page background.

    After some investigation, we discovered what was causing this — the Pinterest iframe that is included in the footer when Pinterest is active appears to be the issue. To resolve, at least short term, we added the following to our stylesheets for those sites:

    iframe[class*='PIN_'], iframe[class^='PIN_'] { display: none !important; }

    This appears to remove the offending space below the footer, but …

    QUESTIONS:

    1. Will this have a negative impact on the plugin’s functionality?

    2. Is there a better / more permanent ‘fix’ available?

    I don’t use this plug in but coincidentally I created a short code for the Pinterest Button and think it’s the Pinterest JS that inserts this iFrame. The basic Pinterest code did the same to me. Your solution hides the iFrame nicely thank you. I suspect it’s a ‘conflict’ between WordPress and Pinterest.

    Hi guys,
    thanks for reporting and posting about this issue.

    I’m going to add this to our list, and hopefully we can test this fix and get it into the next version of Flare. I think that would be the most permanent fix.
