What is causing the 1 pixel white line at the bottom of the footer on some of the pages in my Webflow website?

There are a few possible reasons why a 1 pixel white line may appear at the bottom of the footer on some pages in a Webflow website. Here are some steps you can take to identify and fix the issue:

  1. Check for excess padding or margin: First, make sure there is no excess padding or margin applied to the footer or any other surrounding elements. This extra space could be creating the white line. Inspect the styling of the footer and its parent elements in the Webflow Designer or through custom code to ensure there are no unwanted spacing properties.

  2. Review the background color or image: If the footer has a background color or image applied, verify that it covers the entire footer area without any gaps. Sometimes, white lines can appear if the background color or image is not extended fully to the edge of the footer. Adjust the background settings to ensure full coverage of the footer area.

  3. Look for overlapping elements: Inspect the layers and positioning of elements within the footer and surrounding areas. If there are elements positioned below the footer or overlapping with it, they may cause the white line to appear. Make sure there are no overlapping elements and adjust their positioning if necessary.

  4. Check for browser compatibility issues: Test the website on different browsers to see if the white line issue is consistent across all of them. Sometimes, browser rendering inconsistencies can cause minor visual artifacts like white lines. If the issue is only present on certain browsers, you may need to explore browser-specific fixes or workarounds.

  5. Inspect custom code: If you have added any custom code to your Webflow project, review it for any properties or styles that could be affecting the footer. CSS code snippets, JavaScript modifications, or plugins could potentially interfere with the styling and cause the white line. Remove or modify any custom code that could be causing the issue and test the website again.

By following these steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the issue with the 1 pixel white line at the bottom of the footer on your Webflow website.
