Finally ??

I added padding to the last bit of css code to move the widgets down a bit into the black footer and I styled the widget to make its text white. Thank you all for your help!

Hi Andrew —

Thanks for your help. This did turn the footer black but now the disclaimer (in a footer widget) is too difficult to read (kind of dark grey on black). Also, there is something going on with the spacing of the footer widgets that is different on the mobile devices. They stack up one under the other which makes sense but there is no border above the first widget — if it’s all white this looks good but once the footer turns black it looks unbalanced. I think at this point I’m just going to leave it as is — white footer, black text, widgets stacked.

Hi Kyle —

I made your changes but I still don’t see the copyright text and the footer is still white. If you look above at Andrew’s style.css changes, they work to display the copyright text — previously white on white so appearing invisible — these changes make the copyright text black so it shows on the white footer.

My question is, can we make the footer black and the text white on mobile devices, the same as it appears on my computer?

Thanks Kyle — I’ll give it a try this weekend.

The footer is themed black on a regular screen but is then white on mobile and older browsers. Must be somewhere in the stylesheet. The only option for the footer is the copyright text color.

So, on regular screens the footer widgets and the copyright text are white on a black background. On mobile screens the footer background is white and the widget text is black. Now, the copyright text is black also thanks to your modification.

If possible I would like the mobile screens to appear the same as the regular screens.

Wow, thanks Andrew. I do have a child theme so I added it there.

One more question. I realize that if the footer is black on the mobile devices then the black text won’t be displayed (black on black) but I was wondering if the footer could be black and the text white, like on the original pages.

The color option is for the copyright text color, not the footer background color.

The copyright and footer text appears white on a black background. On mobile, the footer text appears black on a grey background and the copyright text does not appear at all.

In Atomic Options there is a special area for the copyright.
Appearance –> Atomic Options –> Copyright Text

I have moved the disclaimer to a footer widget to be sure that it displays regardless of the device. However, the same problem of the copyright not appearing and the footer background changing to a greyish color exists on an older version of IE as well.

Post excerpts fixed by adding text-align:justify to the paragraph tag CSS.

Works perfectly. Thanks again.

Thanks ??

Found it using the element inspector. Now I just need to move the style.css modifications to the child stylesheet and I’ll be all done.

You’ve been a fantastic help. Thanks so much!

That definitely fixed it, thanks so much!

I made the changes to the child that you suggested but for some reason the changes, when added to the child style.css, do not seem to work so I have made them all in the parent stylesheet.

One more question….in the email I sent you there was a screen shot of the category page that shows that now there is a lot of white space between excerpts. I’m going over the changes we’ve made over the past few days to see if one of them is the cause.
