The footer area is displayed at the bottom of every page. It contains site-wide components like the footer icons, bottom utility menu and copyright information.
Bottom Utility Menu
The bottom utility menu is used to hold links to important pages on the site. The items displayed in this menu are links to the child articles of the article selected in the "Bottom utilities article" picker in the subsite configuration. The bottom utility article is normally turned off so that it doesn't appear in the site navigation and breadcrumb.
Tag Line and Summary
The company tag line can be displayed to the right of the bottom utility menu items. The "About article" selected in the subsite configuration provides its heading and article summary as content for this section of the footer. Neither act as links.
Social Link Icons
A row of icons can be displayed in the footer. They are designed to act as links to external sites, such as Facebook and Twitter, or to an RSS feed. Multiple icons (the social media images in the screenshot above) can be output in the footer using the media asset picker in the subsite configuration. These media items use the image media type.
Copyright Information
The site's copyright information will begin with the copyright symbol, ©, followed by the current year and the site's name. The current year is supplied by the web server and the <Subsite title> comes from the text in the "Title" field of the subsite configuration.
