Footer Module

Overview

A footer module displays at the bottom of an application in Express View. In a footer module, you might display a logo, contact information, social media links, a sitemap, or insert a CTA. Footers exist in a separate module, which you connect to your application in the App Details settings.

Footer module RBAC is defined by the RBAC of the embedded components.

Footers are FE front-end modules assigned to the Footer Module drop-down in Application settings.

To create and assign a footer module at the Application level:

1. Navigate to your application.
2. Click + Create New.
3. Select Module.
4. In the Module Name field, enter a name for your footer module. The Module-Path field autopopulates.

To make it easier to locate your footer later, begin your module name with Footer. For example, Footer: Acme Corp.

5. From the Module Type drop-down select FE Front-End.

Footer Modules are a front-end element, an application might experience unintended consequences when the Module Type is API API or  O  Other.

6. Click Create.

From here, open the module and customize your footer. Here are the following supported components:

Avoid naming components with common values. Header and footer modules cannot have components with the same Property ID. Otherwise, neither display in Express View. It's a best practice to differentiate components with a descriptive name—for example, dwFooterOutput.
