I would like the padding between the columns with the Liberty graphics to be 0% (top, bottom, left and right). However, I cannot find the function inside the theme column settings to allow for right and left column padding to be set to 0% to allow all the columns to touch on all four sides (top, bottom, left and right).

Wordfence is not installed yet. The server admin said some parts of Africa may be blocked but the rest of the world is open. Where are you trying to access the site from? If you have an IP, he can check it directly.

On another note, how do you disable the social links in the footer. When I look at the Social Media tab inside the Options Panel, I don't see a way to disable the social media links (or selectively enable individual social media links) if they do not have a URL (or individually have a URL) associated with them.

Never mind my question on the social media links - they are associated with the Footer section in the Options Panel, not the Social Media section of the Options Panel.
