Global Footer Settings

How to configure the footer for your HubSpot website theme

icon-module-footer

WEBSITE FOOTER

One of the key building blocks for your website, the footer is at the very bottom of the page and provides your site visitor with helpful links.

footer-example

Page Speed Impact

LOW

The footer module has very little impact on page speed.

MEDIUM

Logo size and file format can impact your page speed if not sized appropriately.

The subscription form in the footer will add a slight increase in load time (limited to the email field only for this reason).

TIPS

For the best quality, we recommend SVG for your logo sized at 120px wide.

Consider creating a section containing your newsletter subscription outside of the footer and only placing it on key conversion pages.

FAQ

Where can I change the copyright text in the footer?

The copyright text can be configured directly in the footer module. Please watch this video for further details.

 

HubSpot Video

 

The Submit button is overlapping the form fields in the footer, how can I fix this?

The footer is designed to contain a Subscription Form that has just one field for Email Address.

Adding additional fields breaks the styling and is not recommended due to the impact on page speed.

Learn more about using Forms.

How do I set up the Advanced Footer from v25?

Step-by-Step Instructions coming soon for the Advanced Footer, please submit a ticket if you have questions.

Setup Instructions

Page Editor → POWER Footer

To access the global footer module, the easiest way is to create a website test page, select your child theme and a template, then click the Contents tab and choose "POWER Footer" to open the Global Content Editor.
 
POWER-footer-settings

POWER Footer → Global Content

Once you have accessed the global module, you will have the choice to set up 4 variations for the footer.

global-footer-types

We recommend configuring the footer for all page types at the beginning, even if you don't plan on using one of them (i.e. blog or landing pages) so that you have a consistent starting point if anything changes.

It is also possible to override the default footer for an individual page, so an unused footer type could be styled for this situation.

Footer Types for POWER Theme

  • PAGE Footer is the default for website pages
  • LANDING PAGE Footer is the default for landing pages
  • BLOG Footer is the default for the Blog Listing and Blog Post templates
  • SYSTEM PAGE Footer is the default for the 404, 500, and Search templates

While Subscription templates are system pages and they typically use the LANDING PAGE Footer, some accounts are using the PAGE Footer for these pages with no clear explanation from HubSpot.

Each footer type includes the option to include a Copyright Bar.

Settings → Account Defaults → Branding → Company Info

A Legal Notice is included in the Footer and consists of your legal menu (Terms of Use, Privacy Policy, etc.), the Year and Company Name.

Publishing the Global Footer

When you're ready to publish the Global Footer, you'll click the orange Publish to X Assets button in the upper right corner. The number of assets corresponds to the total number of assets using this specific child theme that contains any of the footer types.

publish-global-footer

It is important to note that if you make a change to the BLOG Footer, you'll have to publish the footer to ALL assets, not just the blog assets. This is true for each footer Type, whether you are configuring every footer or making a change to an individual setting - until you Publish to X Assets, your changes will not be visible on your preview pages and live site.

Module Options

There are some settings that are only visible based on previous choices, if you do not see the option available, it does not work with the layout or selections you've already made.

These settings are available for each Footer Type. We recommend opening a second browser window once you have the PAGE Footer configured to make it easier to apply the same settings for the other footer types and modify as needed.

POWER Footer → Logo

The footer uses the same pre-configured global logo that you added when setting up the header.

Option to Override default logo and Override Logo Sizes.

footer-logo-setup

Option to Override Logo Link allows you to replace the preconfigured link from the global HubSpot settings.

override-footer-logo-link

POWER Footer → Link Type

Configure the Link Text and Link To if using Layout → Footer Simple (this setting won't be visible until you change the layout).

Options for Link To are: External, Content, File, Email Address, and Blog.

simple-footer-link-text

Option to Use CTA instead if you would like to use a CTA, you'll need to add the class "pwr-link" in the CTA settings, learn more about setting up CTAs for POWER theme.

POWER Footer → Statement

The Statement allows you to include a company description in the Footer when using the Footer Full layout.

Company-description-statement-setting

POWER Footer → Social Icons

The footer includes 3 pre-configured social icons for Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram.

Make sure you update the URL to your social accounts or remove ours. :)

footer-social-icons

POWER Footer → Menu

Choose your navigation menu from the Menu dropdown to select your footer navigation. Help with Navigation Menus.

To create a footer with full navigation (Layout → Footer Full), we recommend a menu with 6 columns:

To create a footer with logo/company info/social icons (Layout → Footer Full), we recommend 4 columns:

POWER Footer → Subscription Form

Edit Subscription Title to include a title for your Subscription Form in the Footer.

Choose your Subscription Form or create a new form.

The Footer is designed to work with a form that has just one field for Email Address, adding additional fields will break the styling and you will see the button in the wrong spot.

The number of navigation columns should be limited to 2 when using the Subscription Form.
