Footer
Feature Purpose:
The "Footer" feature on ExpoPlatform is designed to provide a consistent and customizable section at the bottom of new websites. This footer enhances the user experience by offering essential information and links in a standardized format across website pages, ensuring easy access to important details and navigation options.
Working with this Feature:
When creating a new website, the footer is automatically included and configured by default. Here’s how to work with this feature:
Default Configuration:
The footer comes with a default appearance, including an image automatically added from the event settings during event setup.
Accessing Footer Settings:
Users can click anywhere on the footer block on the right, in the middle of the footer, to reveal two buttons: Settings and Disable/Enable.
Disable/Enable Button: Allows users to disable or enable the footer. When disabled, the message "The block is hidden. Click the three-dot 'Disable/Enable' button on the right to make it visible" is displayed.
Footer Customization:
Clicking the Settings button opens a window on the right, offering the following customization options:
Logo: Toggle the event logo on and off, or upload a different logo. Adjust logo settings.
Content:
Text: Add or disable text. The text position adjusts based on the logo's placement in the footer.
Additional Information: Display or deactivate the phone number, location, and copyright terms.
Links:
Create and edit links to pages with sublinks. Initially, pre-configured links and sublinks can be modified or deleted.

Configure colors for the footer background, links, and divider.
