How can I change the color of half my website footer?

Topic summary

Main issue: the merchant wants only the upper section of the footer to be white.

Key steps:

  • A helper requested the store URL; the merchant provided it.
  • CSS was added to the end of base.css to style the top footer section: set .footer padding-top to 0 (important) and make .footer__content-top white with padding-top of 42px.

Follow-up and adjustment:

  • After applying, on very large screens the white area didn’t span as intended.
  • A media query for wide displays was suggested: at min-width 1700px, set .footer__content-top to max-width: 100% to ensure full-width appearance.

Outcome:

  • The merchant confirmed the fix worked and expressed thanks. No further issues reported.

Notes:

  • Screenshots were shared to illustrate before/after, but the core solution is the CSS change and the large-screen media query.
  • CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) controls visual styling; a media query applies styles only above a specified screen width.

Status: Resolved.

@gbastore - add this css to the very end of your base.css file and check

.footer{padding-top: 0 !important;}
.footer__content-top{background-color: #fff; padding-top: 42px;}

@suyash1 - My footer looks like this now:

@gbastore - I tihnk you are using bigger screen device, add this code too and check

@media screen and (min-width:1700px){
