Replace the Footer
Build a different footer and use it on the pages you choose, while the rest of the site keeps the footer you set up in the Customizer.
A Footer template part works exactly like a Header one: you build a footer as ordinary content and choose which pages use it. On those pages it replaces the footer you built under Appearance -> Customize -> Footer.
This is how you give a landing page a stripped-back footer with nothing but a copyright line, or show a different set of contact details to visitors in a particular section of the site.
1. Go to Template Parts
In your WordPress dashboard, go to Kalium -> Template Parts.
Switch to the Footers tab at the top, then click Add New.
2. Name it and build the footer
Give it a name that describes where it will be used, such as Minimal Landing Footer.
Build the footer in the editor using the block editor, Elementor or WPBakery. Columns of links, a newsletter form, a logo and a copyright line, anything you can lay out on a page works here.
3. Open Template Part Settings
Click the Kalium icon in the top-right corner to open the Template Part Settings panel.
4. Set the Type to Footer
Make sure Type is set to Footer. Starting from the Footers tab sets it for you.
Type5. Set Display Conditions
Without at least one condition, the footer never appears. Click Add Condition and choose where it applies.
Common setups:
One landing page: Singular Content -> Single Page -> choose the page
Every blog post: Singular Content -> Single Post
The whole shop: WooCommerce -> Shop Archive, plus a second row for Product Page, joined with OR
6. Footer Settings
Footers have two settings of their own:
Fixed Footer The footer stays in place while the page content slides up over it as visitors scroll, the footer is revealed underneath rather than pushed down. It is a striking effect on a short page and is best avoided on very long ones.
Effect The animation used as the footer is revealed: None, Fade or Slide.
7. Publish
Click Publish, then visit a page your conditions match.
Things to know
Your Customizer footer settings stop applying on those pages. If a footer change made in the Customizer is not showing up on some pages, check whether a Footer template part is matching them.
The footer shows on more pages than expected usually means conditions are joined with OR where AND was intended. OR widens the match; AND narrows it.
Nothing appears at all Check the part is Published and has at least one condition.
To go back to the Customizer footer without losing your work, set the part to Disabled in the Template Parts list.
