Customizing Footer

Customizing the Footer

Files: src/config/config.toml, src/config/menu.<lang>.json, src/i18n/<lang>.json, src/layouts/components/global/Footer.astro · Skill level: Beginner

The footer contains following essential elements that you can customize using the links below:

• Logo – Update your site’s logo
• Social Links – Configure site-wide social links
• Footer Menus – Customize navigation menus
• Subscription – Set up the subscription form
• Ask AI row – Ask AI links and the llms files. The component is global/footer/FooterAi.astro, and footer under [settings.pageActions] turns it off.
• Copyright & Footer Description – See below
• Theme Credit – See below

In the Tina edition, you edit these in Site settings, Menus, Social links, and Interface labels at /admin/. In the Sanity edition, they are in the Studio: Site settings below the languages, which also holds the social links, and Menus and Interface labels under each language.

Upstart has one footer layout.

Customizing Copyright Text and Footer Description

To modify the copyright text and footer description, locate the appropriate i18n file for the desired language. Update it as follows:

Example: English (en.json)

"footer": {
  "quickLinks": "Quick Links",
  "legal": "Legal",
  "resources": "Resources",
  "description": "Upstart is a San Francisco-based design and technology company founded in 2016. Their mission is to democratize design by making professional branding tools accessible to everyone.",
  "copyright": "Copyright {{ year }} / All Rights Reserved By Upstart"
}

Example: French (fr.json)

"footer": {
  "quickLinks": "Liens",
  "legal": "Juridique",
  "resources": "Ressources",
  "description": "Upstart est une entreprise de design et de technologie basée à San Francisco, fondée en 2016. Leur mission est de démocratiser le design en rendant les outils de branding professionnels accessibles à tous.",
  "copyright": "Droits d'auteur {{ year }} / Tous droits réservés par Upstart"
}

1. Open src/i18n/en.json, then the same file for each of your other languages, such as src/i18n/fr.json and src/i18n/ar.json.
2. Locate the "description" & "copyright" values in the "footer" section.
3. Update those values. quickLinks, resources, and legal are the headings of the footer menu columns.

In the Tina and Sanity editions, these are under Footer in Interface labels, in each language.

Note: A value in config.toml replaces the text in every language, so leave these empty unless you want that.

[settings]
  footerDescription = "" # Leave empty to use the text in each language file

  [settings.copyright]
    enable = true
    text   = "" # Leave empty to use the text in each language file

Theme Credit

The theme credit is the small line at the bottom of the footer, and the last line of llms.txt. The component is global/footer/FooterCredit.astro. You can edit it in config.toml:

[settings.themeCredit]
  enable = true
  text   = "..." # The part in [brackets] becomes the link
  url    = "..."

In the Tina and Sanity editions, it is Site settings > Settings > Theme Credit.
