The Footer-type Themer layout in Beaver Themer overrides your theme’s footer and footer widget area at the bottom of a page, as shown in the following diagram.
After you create a new Footer-type Themer layout and launch Beaver Builder, the initial layout contains the Footer 1 layout template, shown in the following screenshot.
There are several Themer Footer layout templates to choose from. Open the Content panel and click the Templates tab to view all available options. You can start with any template and modify or delete whatever you like.
Layout
- Two rows, one that resembles a footer widget area but uses a Beaver Builder layout instead, and one for what’s normally thought of as the footer.
Modules
In the first row:
- The first column has a Heading module and three Icon modules.
- The second column has a Heading module and a Text Editor module.
- The third column has a Heading module and a Text Editor module.
In the second row, the single column has a Text Editor module, which contains the copyright symbol plus two field connection shortcodes: one for the current year and the other for the site title. If you look on the Text tab of the Text Editor module, it has the following markup:
<p style="text-align: center;">© [wpbb site:year format=Y] [wpbb site:title]. All Rights Reserved.</p>
- The locations on your site where the footer applies
- Optional conditional logic rules
Use field connection shortcodes like [wpbb site:year format=Y] to dynamically display the current year in your copyright notice.
