What is: Footer
The WordPress page contains different widget areas to define the header, footer, centre of the page and other elements. It is defined as the end of the page section. Most websites define their terms, privacy policy and disclosure in the section. The section is included in the widget section. You can edit the section in your WordPress website dashboard. Since it is similar to the entire website, the elements that you see in the section are not specific to a single page but the entire website. However, with the development of HTML5, the footer and header are more versatile. So, you can use the footer simply by marking the HTML5 on every page of your website. As a result, some pages on your site may have a different number of footers.
It is very easy to edit and update the details in WordPress website development. If you want to make modifications to the section, you can also add About Us and Contact us links in the section. It remains the same throughout your WordPress website. So it’s better to add links better for the whole website rather than a single section.
What’s more with the WordPress Footer?
There are many ways to add footers to the WordPress website such as you can add the section using coding, or using WordPress theme customizer. Also, you can edit the section in the Widget area in WordPress. You can also add multiple columns in the footer section.
The template file in which the section is stored in WordPress is known as footer.php. You can edit the colour, appearance, font, height of the footer in the WordPress admin dashboard. If you use a pre-designed WordPress template then depending on the layout of the theme, you can edit in the WordPress dashboard, also ask the owner of the theme for copyright terms.
