The footer is one section in the Footer group. It has a row of columns built from blocks, an optional row of country and language selectors, and a bottom bar with copyright, policy links and payment icons.

You can add sections above the footer in the Footer group, and they appear on every page. For example, an Icon row of your shipping, returns and warranty terms, a Logo list of the stores that stock you, a Newsletter or Rich text.

Columns

Add blocks to create columns. Columns sit side by side and wrap onto new rows when there isn't room, so they stack on phones.

Menu column"Heading", "Menu"A list of links from a menu. "Menu" defaults to footer.

The default footer has a Newsletter ("Subscribe"), a Menu column ("Depot") and a Social media column ("Channels").

The footer also offers the general blocks (Eyebrow, Heading, Text, Button, Collapsible row and Custom Liquid) and Generate, which creates a block from your description. Each one takes a place in the row of columns, at its own height, and a Button keeps its own width. A Heading block adds a heading to every page; for a column title, use the column block's own "Heading" setting. See AI-generated blocks.
