What is a Footer?
Footers appear at the bottom of most web pages. In general sites have one standard footer used for every page on the site – although some pages on a site may not have a footer or need a custom footer.
The Footer Site Part section of the Theme Builder lists all footers you’ve created, if any, giving quick access to add, edit, or delete any footer.
