Custom Footer Tab
The Custom Footer is inserted at the bottom of every page on the storefront. This is the ideal location to put content such as:
•a list of supported payment options
•information about shipping and shipping costs
•link to a sign-up form for a newsletter
•the company tag line or other commercial messages
•contact information and the company address
•copyright notice and the Terms & Conditions link
•links to other pages of the storefront (e.g. product pages) or external links
•code snippets for various widgets: page tracking and analytics, chat service, etc.
NOTE: Enabling the custom footer replaces the Copyright Notice, the link to the Terms & Conditions Page, and the Cookie Acceptance page which are explained in “Add/edit legal information (Legal tab)”. It is recommended that you provide this information in the custom footer.

Create/edit the custom footer
The custom footer is a table with one row by default but you can add extra rows if necessary. A table is used to control the layout.
If you choose to make your storefront responsive (see “Responsive Design”)and you have a lot of content in the custom footer, it is recommended to put the content in table cells so they reflow more gracefully under each other on a small screen.
1 On the menu bar, choose Stores and select a store, and click the Custom Footer tab.
2 Select the Enable Custom Footer check box.
NOTE: This check box is not selected by default and the system generates the standard footer with a Copyright Notice, the Terms & Conditions link, and the Cookies Acceptance page if they have been set.
You can now enable a background color and/or a background image for the footer area.
3 In the content box, click the Edit button to enter and format the text you want to display in the footer area using the HTML WYSIWYG Editor. See “HTML WYSIWYG Editor” for more information.
This is in the first row of your footer table. If you do not create extra cells in this row, there is no need to set a Minimum Cell Width but the width must be wide enough to accommodate the text or image.
4 To create extra cells in the first row, click the Add button and choose To this Row. Enter your content and set the Minimum Cell Width.

5 To create a second row, click the Add button and choose To new Row.
The text appears on top of the background color or image. The number of lines in a cell determines the height of its row. You can type empty lines to move the text content up or down.
6 It is recommended to include a link to your Terms & Conditions and/or cookies disclaimer page: click the Insert Link button in the editor. If you created the Terms & Conditions page in the Pages >Legal tab, click the StoreFront Links button to create a link to that page. You can also specify a URL to link to such a page on your website.
7 Click Save to confirm your changes.

Your new footer is applied at the bottom of all the pages of the storefront.
