  • Hello @phenomlab

    I have almost the same footerbar as yours without the welcome message. (your old one actually)

    I just wanted to add some text in its center.

    Rather than having 2 blocks (left and right) I wanted a left, center, right block.

    I added a div in the middle of the 2 but the right div is no longer displayed.

    @DownPW Do you have this setup in a dev environment anywhere? If not, no issue - I can reproduce it in mine.

    @DownPW No problems. Try adding this additional CSS

    #floatcenter {
        margin: 0 auto;
        text-align: center;
        width: 50%;

    @DownPW that’s strange. I used your code to add the additional element and bound the css I supplied above and it worked fine.

    Can you check and see if the css is being overridden somewhere?

    @DownPW again, odd. I’ll need to have another look at this and revert. ,

  • Nothing conclusive on my side

    @DownPW I’ll try again a bit later and provide full html and css. I’ll base it on your site.

    @DownPW I thought it looked familiar. When I checked yesterday the central text part was missing, so I’ll add that via the console and develop from there. This will only be visible for my browser session so no impact to anyone else.

    @DownPW I see the issue. Use my CSS still, but from your CSS, remove

    #floatright {
        display: flex;
    }
    

    You should land up with

    #floatcenter {
        bottom: 1px;
        font-size: 90%;
        line-height: 2.3;
        font-weight: bold;

        margin: 0 auto;
        text-align: center;
        width: 50%;

    @DownPW sorry. Try either

    display: inline;
    

    Or

    display: inline-block;
    

    You might need !important depending on cascading settings

    Edit - for clarity, this should be in the #floatcenter block

    @phenomlab

    Houra, it’s OK with inline-block

    On the other hand, I see that the text is well centered in the div but I notice that the div itself is not centered.
    Indeed I see a substantial space between the floatcenter div and floatright div.
    You can see it in the screenshot below.

    Again my HTML/CSS

    <div id="floatcenter"> Some centered text
        </div>
    
    #floatcenter {
        bottom: 1px;
        font-size: 90%;
        line-height: 2.3;
        font-weight: bold;
        color: #666666 !important;
        margin: auto auto;
        text-align: center;
        width: 50%;
        display: inline-block !important;
    }

    @DownPW strange. I don’t recall seeing that issue when I created this using the console live on your site. This is likely due to width constraints on the parent div.

    In the above CSS you could try to set width to auto rather than 50%, but then you will need to set width: 100%; on the parent div

    @Sala This should look better .sidenav .navbar-brand { padding-top: 0.5rem; padding-bottom: 0.5rem; } [image: 1669026666905-e5cec20e-be36-4ee8-9129-fd11ad4656ac-image.png] You can increase the top and bottom padding by increasing the values above.

    @DownPW Looking at the underlying code, class start is being added on hover by jQuery in this function document.querySelectorAll(".button-gradient, .button-transparent").forEach((button) => { const style = getComputedStyle(button); const lines = document.createElement("div"); lines.classList.add("lines"); const groupTop = document.createElement("div"); const groupBottom = document.createElement("div"); const svg = createSVG( button.offsetWidth, button.offsetHeight, parseInt(style.borderRadius, 10) ); groupTop.appendChild(svg); groupTop.appendChild(svg.cloneNode(true)); groupTop.appendChild(svg.cloneNode(true)); groupTop.appendChild(svg.cloneNode(true)); groupBottom.appendChild(svg.cloneNode(true)); groupBottom.appendChild(svg.cloneNode(true)); groupBottom.appendChild(svg.cloneNode(true)); groupBottom.appendChild(svg.cloneNode(true)); lines.appendChild(groupTop); lines.appendChild(groupBottom); button.appendChild(lines); button.addEventListener("pointerenter", () => { button.classList.add("start"); }); svg.addEventListener("animationend", () => { button.classList.remove("start"); }); }); }) The CSS for start is below .button-gradient.start .lines svg, .button-transparent.start .lines svg { animation: stroke 0.3s linear; } And this is the corresponding keyframe @keyframes stroke { 30%, 55% { opacity: 1; } 100% { stroke-dashoffset: 5; opacity: 0; } } It’s using both CSS and SVG, so might not be a simple affair to replicate without the SVG files.

    @DownPW said in Bottom footer navbar button extend: Oh my god, it’s beautiful mark I liked this design so much, I’ve implemented it here. I intend to do a lot more with the footer in due course, so hiding it makes a lot of sense. Thanks @DownPW for the idea and initial concept

    @DownPW the ‘js’ code for the banner takes the time from the client, so what it displays really depends on the regional settings for the operating system. I’ve not seen this issue myself but would like to see some examples of screenshots if possible.
