Formatting headlines in Footer

Hi there, I’ve searched the forums and haven’t quite found the answer I need. I don’t know any CSS. When I put widgets in my footer, the font has shadows and sizes that I don’t want (see image).

I just want the font to show up without any extra formatting.

Also, I’d like to lose the lines around the left-most widget (Contact Aveil, Resources, etc) and lose the arrows so it looks more like this (but still white font on a gray background).

Thanks, Jena

Hello Jena,

Thanks for asking. :slight_smile:

Can you please share website URL so we can give you the CSS codes?

Thanks.

yes, it’s www.aveil.org.

Hello @jenaolson,

Thanks for asking. :slight_smile:

I see a coming soon page on the website. Can you please share website login details in a secure note so that we can give you the CSS required to make required changes in footer?

Thanks.

I deactivated the Under Construction widget, hopefully it works now.

Hello @jenaolson,

Thanks for asking. :slight_smile:

Have you removed widgets from footer as I don’t see any widgets in that area? https://cloudup.com/cnWbAOd-rQg

Thanks.

I did. I got sick of trying to figure out and gave up on it. :slight_smile: I put it back so you can see the code.

Hello @jenaolson,

Thanks for updating thread. :slight_smile:

Please add following CSS under X > Theme Options > CSS:

footer.x-colophon.top .widget {
    text-shadow: none;
}

footer.x-colophon.top label {
    color: #fff;
}

footer.x-colophon.top .widget_nav_menu ul li a {
    border-bottom: 0;
    box-shadow: none;
    color: #fff;
}

footer.x-colophon.top .widget_nav_menu ul li a:before, .widget_meta ul li a:before, .widget_pages ul li a:before{display:none;}

footer.x-colophon.top .widget_nav_menu ul li ul, .widget_nav_menu ul li .sub-menu {
    box-shadow: none;
}

footer.x-colophon.top .widget ul {
    border: none !important;
    box-shadow: none;
} 

Thanks.

Thank you! How do I lose the light white line around the navigation area, and change the size of the font? Also, I added some regular text in the middle widget area that shows up as dark font, but I want it to be white.

Basically, I want it to look almost identical to the image I referenced originally (except using our font). Thanks.

Hey, you withdrawn your post is everything fine now?

Thanks,

Yes, realized I had some wayward text in the CSS that was messing it up. Deleted it and all went back to normal.

Hi There,

It could be related to a caching issue as well. If you’re using any caching plugins, make sure to purge your server cache and also clear your browser cache before testing.

Thanks!

One more question on the footer. I’d like to reduce the space between the heading (QUICK LINKS, CONTACT) and the links below them. How do I do that?

Hi There,

Please add this to Theme Options > CSS

.x-colophon .widget {
    margin-top: 15px;
}

Feel free to adjust the value where you see fits,

Cheers!

Perfect, thank you!

You are most welcome.:slight_smile:
