Left column goes all the way down on home page.

Left column does not go all the way down on other pages.

I'm doing the trial to give Smug another shot. So far I like what I'm seeing (hope the server stays up).

It should be noted that I have Stretchy selected under the layout tab along with fill height selected to on.

Thanks!

My guess is that it's stopping just before your footer section. As least that's where I think the "powered by smugmug" is situated.
If that is a footer section, drag it and place it under the main body but to the right of the left column.
I'm guessing right now it's under everything.

try ;


.sm-page-layout.sm-page-layout-fillheight .sm-page-layout-region .sm-page-layout-region-left {
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
bottom: -60px;
left: 0px;
}


fiddle with bottom; -xxpx; as you like

Your somewhat on the right track. The "Powered by Smugmug falls just below the sites footer. However, the footer area is a dotted line and not movable.

Gave this a try and fiddled with the bottom position but no luck

On my monitor there is no difference between the two. I see a space below the left column on both pages.

Howdy. I know I'm late to this thread, and not sure if this ever got answered. But i have the same problem. My left sidebar never quite gets to touch the bottom, despite having 'stretchy' set, and "Fill height" ON.

It appears to be due to the smug footer (which is not the same as the normal footer, which I am not using). I have messed with the above CSS that basflt suggested, tried using z-index also in case maybe it was to do with overlapping elements - but I can't get that sidebar to touch the bottom. I use the sidebar across my site: smcdowell.smugmug.com

Any ideas out there? Maybe something simple I am overlooking?

I'm having the same problem. I'd even be OK to just add the footer to the homepage but the theme doesn't want to give me that option.

Hi Wayne,

I took a look at your site but can't see where the problem is? The left sidebar seems to be touching the bottom ok??

For what it is worth I fixed the problem on my site by hiding the SM footer. I couldn't find any other way. I see your site doesn't seem to have it showing, so maybe you have discovered the same thing?

And, if I may, you have some lovely photos in your prints section (where I was looking).

Have you guys tried clearing your browsers cache ?

If i visit your sites , it goes all the way down

Hey basflt,

Thanks, but I got the problem to go away by hiding the SM "Powered by" footer. Wasn't my preference, but I tried lots of other things and couldn't get it to go. Problem was displaying on Safari, Chrome, and on other's computers. I *think* I tried clearing my cache somewhere in the middles, but now can't be sure...

Anyway, the problem won't show for you on my page now because of the above.

Thanks for your input!

Sam
