How can I reduce footer size in the Dawn Theme?

I have gone about looking at different tutorial on shrinking the padding between links on the footer but for some reason none have been able to help me.


I need to shrink the space between those links under the header and shrink excess space below.

Thank you for the help!

Hi @Cbrownz ,

Can you provide your website url to better assist you

Hi,

Please follow these steps:

  • Go to Admin>Online Store
  • Click Actions>Edit Code
  • In the assets folder, open the base.css file
  • Copy this code to the bottom of the file to decrease/increase the padding between the title and the links:
h2.footer-block__heading {
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
  • Change the value of pixels (10px), as you want it to be.

  • Copy this code to the bottom of the file to decrease/increase the padding between the links:

li.footer-block__details-content>li:not(:last-child) {
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
  • Change the value of pixels (10px), as you want it to be.

Hope this helps.

That worked for the headings, but the footer links still are not being effected by it.

@Cbrownz
Please try this code for the links:

a.list-menu__item--link {
padding-bottom: 10px;
}

And just modify the number of pixels (10px).

Still having troubles with that but honestly I think the bigger thing that will help me out is removing this big chunk at the bottom of the footer

Hi @Cbrownz ;

Just add the code below.

.footer .footer__content-bottom {
    padding-top: 3rem; 
}

.footer .footer__content-top {
    padding-bottom: 1rem;
}

Ok great, is it possible to go less than 1 rem?

Yes. Just change 1rem to 0.5rem. It would be decimal or you can use 10px too. 1rem on this theme I believe is equal to 16px.

Perfect thanks for the help

In what file and where in the file should we paste this? Thank you!

Hello, I have a similar issue, based on the information shared, I was able to fix the padding in between menu items however, my main issue is being able to fix padding to the left and/or right of the spacing of the columns is too wide. Can you assist? Here’s a screenshot also on the Dawn theme. Many Thanks
