How do I make a 960 sticky footer in Bootstrap? - html

Question

I'm still new to Bootstrap. If I'm designing within the 960 container and want the footer to fit correctly inside and stick to the bottom, how do I code that? Everything I find only applies to running the footer/nav across the entire view.
Ive tried the github example and even my classmates aren't sure how to fix this.

Answer 1

Add this CSS below bootstrap.css reference:
<!-- CSS -->
<style type="text/css">
/* Sticky footer styles
-------------------------------------------------- */
html,
body {
height: 100%;
/* The html and body elements cannot have any padding or margin. */
}
/* Wrapper for page content to push down footer */
#wrap {
min-height: 100%;
height: auto !important;
height: 100%;
/* Negative indent footer by it's height */
margin: 0 auto -60px;
}
/* Set the fixed height of the footer here */
#push,
#footer {
height: 60px;
}
#footer {
background-color: #f5f5f5;
}
/* Lastly, apply responsive CSS fixes as necessary */
#media (max-width: 767px) {
#footer {
margin-left: -20px;
margin-right: -20px;
padding-left: 20px;
padding-right: 20px;
}
}
/* Custom page CSS
-------------------------------------------------- */
/* Not required for template or sticky footer method. */
.container {
width: auto;
max-width: 960px;
}
.container .credit {
margin: 20px 0;
}
</style>
Then you can render the footer as follows:
<div id="footer">
<div class="container">
<p class="muted credit">Example </p>
</div>
</div>
NOTE: If you are experiencing problems try to set max-width: 680px; in .container at CSS code
