Using custom HTML for footer with a large block of code, shifts the screen upwards due to the absolute footer position

    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      When using custom HTML for footer under "Administration->Look and Feel->Custom HTML-> At End of the BODY", which adds a large block of code, the rest of the body is pushed upwards and out of the screen.
      Making the #footer relative in default-style.css helps in resolving the problem:

      #footer {
      bottom:0;
      position:relative;
      width:100%;
      }

            Hallo Edith
            Great work! I did a tech writer review a few days ago. Yes, it's great to add the links from the two pages you mention as well.
            Cheers
            Sarah

            Hallo Edith
            Since this issue is of low priority, it is unlikely the technical writers will be able to address it in the near future. We need to concentrate on feature work for the 2 big upcoming releases. If you would like to make the change, I'd be delighted to review it for you.

            Following is a list of steps that can be taken by any user to immediately to implement the workaround for this issue. Confluence documentation will also be updated to detail this workaround for users implementing a custom footer of significant height:

            1. Navigate to the Confluence Administration Console from the Browse menu on any page (Browse > Confluence Admin)
            2. Click on the Custom HTML link located in the left navigation menu (under the Look and Feel subheading)
            3. Click the Edit button to insert custom HTML
            4. Paste the following code into the first text area, which is labeled as At end of the HEAD

            <style type="text/css">
               #com-atlassian-confluence #main {
                  padding-bottom: 200px;
               }
            </style>
            

            Please note: The number in the code above should be adjusted to allow for the height of the custom footer.

            Is this specific to a theme, or for all themes?
