Removed Footer

Topic summary

Issue: The footer disappeared from a product page after manual code edits.

Troubleshooting steps:

  • Helper asked for the modified code/file and to check the Shopify Theme Editor (Online Store > Customize > Product Page) to see if the footer section was hidden. Screenshots and the product URL were provided.
  • Initial hypothesis: a page-specific file had a CSS rule hiding the footer (.footer { display: none !important; }). User couldn’t find that file.
  • Alternative checks: Inspect Custom CSS for the Footer section in the Theme Editor; as a quick fix, add .footer { display: block !important; }.
  • Deeper search: Look for the rule in theme files (theme.liquid; product/footer-related sections; assets like section-footer.css or section-main-product.css).

Resolution:

  • The user located the offending CSS in theme.liquid: .footer { display: none !important; }.
  • Fix was to remove or change it (e.g., to display: block !important;). User confirmed they resolved it.

Status: Resolved. Key cause was a global CSS rule in theme.liquid hiding the footer.
