Hello,

Does anyone know how to edit the footer menu in Basis theme?  I'd like to get rid of it altogether preferably.

Thank you.

Hi Marina,

It isn't possible at present to remove the Basis footer menu via admin settings. If you're interested in how to remove it from a custom theme (some PHP development would be required) I can provide you with some pointers.

Thank you, Joby,

I'm probably going to use Dale's advise and hide the menu with custom CSS.  It would've been nice though if it could be done from an admin settings.

Hello Marina,

The way I would achieve this is in the custom CSS section of your theme.

Site administration > Appearance > Themes > Choose the theme you want to change scroll down to the bottom to the custom CSS section.

Here you want to add the CSS from the footer and then add

display: none; 

visibility: hidden;

You can use this to hide parts of the Footer or the entire footer if you like.

I use Google Chrome and then Ctrl + Shift + I to bring up the console then Ctrl + Shift + C then inspect the footer. On the right you will see all the CSS that make up your themes footer.

Copy and paste the CSS for the footer into the themes custom CSS area mentioned above and add the 2 extra lines (although just display none will work).

Example of how it looks for me when I add it to my theme. (yours will differ slightly)

/* hiding footer completely*/

#page-footer {

background-color: #321D91;
border-top: 3px solid #0B43B3;
color: #fff;
margin-top: 20px;
padding: 0;

display: none; 

visibility: hidden;

}

Hope this isnt too confusing and helps.

Thank you, Dale.

Custom CSS was my fall back options, but I guess it looks like it might be my only option after all.

Thank you for your help,

Marina
