pretty new to shopify so I’m not really sure how to get rid of this and I’ve tried the padding values already so maybe with code?

Hello,

This issue occurs because the page body is set to always span 100% of the height, which ensures the footer stays at the bottom of the page, even if there’s minimal content. Removing this padding will shift the footer upward, leaving empty space at the bottom of the screen.

If this is the outcome you’re looking for, here’s what you need to do:

  1. Navigate to Online Store → Themes → Edit code.
  2. Open the file located at /sections/main-404.liquid.
  3. At the top of the file, you should find a tag. Insert the following code right after :
body {
  min-height: auto;
}
