Hi there,

can you share a link to your site ?

[Dinu Sri Madusanka]

This is my site

https://brainyhousing.com/

[Ying]

Can you go to appearance > elements, and check if the site footer element is still there? If so, is it active?

Let me know!

[Dinu Sri Madusanka]

Hello Ying,

I’ve checked the elements. But in there, the site footer element is missing. I’m not sure what happened. I’m pretty sure that I’ve not deleted it too.

[David]

If its not in the Elements > Trash.
Then create a new Block Element.
Set the Element Type to: Site Footer
Then from the 3 dot menu in the top bar, switch to Code View.
And paste in this code:

Hello David,

When I tried to add a new element with the type of Site Footer, it seems that option is not available in the drop down menu. Only available following items as element types

Block
Hook
Layout
Header

[Fernando]

Hello Dinu Sri,

You’ll first need to select Block, then, in the Element Settings, select Site Footer as the Element type. Example: https://share.getcloudapp.com/NQul7j5b

Hope this clarifies!

[Dinu Sri Madusanka]

Yes. Thank you so much. It did create the footer. Now its available in element section. However, I think its location is still marked as “NOT SET”. I checked several places where I can set this to available on whole site. But couldn’t find it.

[Fernando]

The Display Rules setting can be seen at the bottom of the Edit Page.

Example: https://share.getcloudapp.com/llu0kg4b

Hope this clarifies!

[Dinu Sri Madusanka]

Now site footer back to normal. Everything works. Thank you for all the support to resolve this. appreciate it.

[Fernando]

You’re welcome Dinu!
