How do I move the paragraph element and an <a> element to the bottom of the footer?

Here is my webpage, https://erickthemeeknerd.github.io/

If you look at the bottom of the page in the footer you'll notice the <p> & an <a> element kind of in the center of the footer. I want to put in at the bottom and have them sit side by side preferably with a line dividing them.

I would suggest wrapping your p tag and anchor tag in a div. Then you can use flex on your footer:

.main-footer{ display: flex; flex-direction: column; height: 200px; // using a height instead of padding }

this css would be on the new div wrapper of the a and p div{ margin-top: auto; }

p{ display:inline; border-right: 1px solid red; //adds a line }

or add a line after your p tag you can use a pseudo

p:after{ content: '|'; }
