Setting up a first time Discourse system here. I can find all manner of posts about creating fancy floating footers, but all I want is the ability to create a line of static text (ideally with links) at the bottom of all pages, and ideally different additional text/html at the bottom of selected pag…

For a simple HTML footer, you can do that with our theme system. On your site, visit /admin/customize/themes. Select the active theme, and click Edit CSS/HTML. Within the theme editor, switch to the “Footer” tab and add the HTML you’d like. Click save, reload your site, and you should see the footer…

Hi. In fact, “categories” is my test page for this. There are only four categories. I can see my test footer in preview, but not on the actual page, even after refreshing the page. Do I have to restart Discourse entirely for this to activate on the actual site? Thanks very much!

[이미지] L30110: I can see my test footer in preview, but not on the actual page, even after refreshing the page. That sounds like the theme isn’t active. Do you have multiple themes on your site?

No, only Light is active or can be selected by users.

That’s odd. I just tested that it’s working here - check out the bottom left corner of Categories - Discourse Meta .

Yeah, that’s where my test text show up in preview. But it’s not on the actual page. Is there some enabling step I might have missed?

Is there an alternative straightforward method for adding different footers to the bottom of different pages?

This is the most straightforward method (and the only one I can think of that doesn’t require a plugin). Your theme looks like this, right? Theme is enabled, “Custom CSS/HTML” says “Common: Footer”? [image] If yes, do you have any other themes in the list? Perhaps you unintentionally switched to…

When I unticked “theme can be selected by users” for the Dark theme, a duplicate Light theme appeared in the theme list. My modifications should have been to the selected default one. I’ve now unticked “can be selected by users” for the duplicate Light theme and it moved down to inactive. So now the…

I’m really not sure what else to suggest here. Your theme is clearly working if you’re seeing the custom CSS on the About page. Can you share the exact HTML you added to the footer? And the active CSS so I can test this out? Feel free to add it in this topic, or via PM if there’s something private i…
