Ive been trying to figure this out, yet cant seem to as it appears it may have something to do with the Open UI / HTML sections.

Its more of a look issue than an actual errror, yet if possible id liek to figure it out if possible.

iI you look at my main page at http://www.girlfriendslingerie.com im able to keep the perpetual footer (as entered into Display wizard pro) within the table or cat tree zone. The page ends with the perpetual footer.

Then if you go into a category page or product page, the perpetual footer is below the cat tree. Now i know some sections have items that are long and may push it below, yet in most cases there is a huge gap between the last category images or product images to the perpetual footer.

I cant figure out why, or how to fix this. I hope i explained the situation well enough and isnt to confusing.

Does anyone have any ideas how to handle this?

Thanks

Good thing you mentioned you entered that in Display Wizard Pro... I think that's one of those little conflicting features where you have the store's own global footer, then OpenUI has one, and DWP has yet a 3rd one. If my memory serves me correctly, the last time I 'fixed' a similar issue, I simply moved the global footer from DWP into OpenUI settings, to achieve the same result across all store pages. Keep in mind that this will put the footer below the cat tree everywhere and this only fixes the consistency of that option, it will not display it at the bottom of each category but 'above' the cattree level itself.

The reason for the huge gap is simply because your left cattree is very long, probably unnecessarily long. You may want to consider a collapsible menu system for the cattree, or at least removing the banners and other features from it and moving that somewhere else on your site. If you are using OUI and DWP, you can add a right hand column to your store very easily - perhaps having these options on the right hand side would work better for you and not create this huge gap on store pages...?

Thanks Remik..... i removed soem xtra baggage on that left nav. Seems cleaner. As for the right display, i used to use it, yet have been trying to clean things up as the right side seemed to make things clunky in appearence...

anyways thanks man...
