How can I remove the horizontal scroll bar on my WordPress site?

Question

I have recently all of a sudden had a horizontal scroll bar show up on the bottom of my website. Does anyone know how to remove it?

My theme is Flatco: http://themeforest.net/item/flatco-responsive-multipurpose-one-page-theme/5222241

Solution 1

Ok, so I solved it. If anybody else has this problem check this:

My footer had too many characters in it, and ended up making a horizontal scroll bar at the bottom. Once I removed some of the characters the scroll bar disappeared.

Solution 2

I know this is a bit 'lazy' but you can add this to your custom css.

 body, html { overflow-x:hidden; }

Hope it helps. Peace

Solution 3

Just open your wordpress dashboard and goto the appearance section then click on customize and once it has been opened then finally goto the Additional CSS and paste

body {
max-width: 100%;
overflow-x: hidden;
}

I hope it helps indeed. Thank you.
