To set an Elementor footer, you typically create a dedicated footer template and assign it to display on your website.
Based on the provided information, here's how you can set up your footer:
Steps to Create and Set an Elementor Footer
The process involves using a specific section in your WordPress dashboard to build and configure your footer template.
- Access the Builder: Go to Appearance in your WordPress admin menu.
- Find the Builder Section: Look for and select Elementor Header & Footer Builder.
- Create a New Template: Click on the option to create a new template.
- Configure Template Settings:
- Assign Template Type: Select "footer" as the type of template you are creating.
- Set Display Rules: Define where this footer should appear on your site (e.g., entire website, specific pages, etc.).
- Design Your Footer: Use the Elementor editor to design the content and layout of your footer.
Note: The reference also mentions Custom Blocks. For Custom Blocks, you select the type as Custom Blocks, design the block, and then you can copy its shortcode to use anywhere on your site. This is useful for creating reusable sections, which could potentially be placed within a footer area, but it's distinct from setting a site-wide footer template directly.
Here’s a quick overview table based on the process described:
Step | Action | Details |
---|---|---|
1. Go to | Appearance > Elementor Header & Footer Builder | Locate the dedicated builder area. |
2. Create | New Template | Start building a new design. |
3. Assign | Template Type | Select "footer" to indicate its purpose. |
4. Set | Display Rules | Choose where the footer should be visible on your website. |
5. Design (in Elementor) | Add Elements | Build the footer content (widgets, columns, etc.). |
Alternative (Blocks) | Type: Custom Blocks | Use for reusable sections with a shortcode, different from a site footer. |
By following these steps within the specified builder area, you can effectively create and implement a custom footer design using Elementor.
