Add tekst and links to footer.

[Bernard_H]

Hi, 

I'm running ipb version 4

I was wondering if somebody knows how I can add a custom link or Tekst to the footer from the forum. There are already a couple links like: 'contact' and 'privacy policy', but I didn't add this myself. 

I need this to add partner links from a couple sites. So if anybody have tips or suggestions to make this possible, please let me know

Kind regards,

There's as far as I'm aware no plugin that makes this code-free possible, but you can add it yourself however. 

Go to ACP > Customization > Appearance > Themes > Your Theme > Edit HTML/CSS (button that looks like: </> ) > footer

Scroll down until you see

 

{{if \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->canAccessModule( \IPS\Application\Module::get( 'core', 'contact' ) ) and !( \IPS\Dispatcher::i()->application->directory == 'core' and \IPS\Dispatcher::i()->module and \IPS\Dispatcher::i()->module->key == 'contact' )}}
        <li><a href='{url="app=core&module=contact&controller=contact" seoTemplate="contact"}' data-ipsdialog data-ipsDialog-remoteSubmit data-ipsDialog-flashMessage='{lang="contact_sent_blurb"}' data-ipsdialog-title="{lang="contact"}">{lang='contact'}</a></li>
    {{endif}}

Add the following after the {{endif}} bit.

<li><a href="http://partnersite.com" target="_new">Partner Name</a></li>

So it looks like this:

          <li><a href="http://webflake.sx" target="_new">Webflake</a></li>

Giving you this effect:

Add the code for each partner site.

 

Don't forget to include http:// or else the board thinks it's a link on your site!

Thnx! I already looked for a plug-in to fix this. But as you said, there aren't any available atm. 

But what you said solved my problem. Thank you very much!

Not a lot todo with this but when your on it i also suggest doing this.

  <li><a href="#top">Back to Top</a></li>

This will create a link that will scroll to the top (useful for mobile devices)
