I have been trying to add a margin-top: 10px; to have space between the footer and the last post on my home page and category pages. I added this in the style footer option but that doesn't make the change even though I am seeing it in the code. I am using atahualpa 3.5.3 with latest wordpress version.I have made this possible on single post pages by adding bottom margin to the next/previous box in the bootom but cannot figure out how to add margin to the footer box.

The footer is a table cell so you can't just move it like that. There are some other threads that address this issue and one way I have done it is to create a faux footer with a div in the footer area.

Could you please give me the code to create that faux footer.

I was afraid you were going to ask that as I don't remember the specifics. I think what I did though was not put the div in the footer area but put it in ATO>Add HTML/CSS Inserts>HTML Inserts: Body Bottom and then style accordingly. Something like

<div id="fauxfooter">Footer Content</div>

I decided to do a quick search of the forum as well as I knew this had been dealt with and came up with this thread that has some code examples.

As you can see there are often several ways a particular issue can be addressed.

I have tried the last solution given at http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthr...ht=footer+body and that even is not working in my case. Replied on that thread also. I thought this would be a relatively easy one but ...

You need to create your own footer and get rid of the styling for the existing footer. When Larry said

<div id="fauxfooter">Footer Content</div>

you should replace Footer Content with your footer code. You added a

<div id="myfooter">&nbsp;</div>

you need to replace the ' ' with your code and then style it properly
