Footer

The site footer. Renders navigation columns, newsletter signup, social handles, payment icons, locale and country selectors, and a copyright line. Configurable to single-row or stacked layouts.

What it does

Lives in the footer-group.json section group. Composes columns of links, an email-capture form, social handles, and policy and payment chrome into a consistent footer across every template.

Section settings

• Footer layout — wide (single row, columns side-by-side), stacked (rows stack vertically), compact (minimum chrome — copyright, policy links, social handles only).
• Show newsletter signup — Checkbox.
• Newsletter heading — Text. Visible when newsletter signup is on.
• Newsletter description — Text. Visible when newsletter signup is on.
• Show social links — Checkbox.
• Show country selector — Checkbox.
• Show locale selector — Checkbox.
• Show payment icons — Checkbox.
• Copyright text — Optional override for the auto-generated copyright. When empty, the footer uses © {{ year }} {{ shop.name }}.
• Padding top / Padding bottom — Range sliders.
• Color scheme — Section-level color scheme.

Blocks

The footer takes column blocks:

• Menu — A column of navigation links pulled from a Shopify menu. Heading plus the menu's link list.
• Text — A column of free-form text. Heading plus body copy.
• Image — A column with an image (logo, payment marks, certification).

Example use cases

• Drop-model register. Two menu blocks (Shop, Studio), one text block ("Drops every other Tuesday at 10am PT"), newsletter signup on. Layout: wide.
• Full-catalog register. Four menu blocks for categories (Shop, Editions, Hard goods, Apparel) plus a Help menu. Newsletter signup on. Layout: wide.
• Compact register. No columns; just policy links, copyright, payment marks. Layout: compact. Used on landing pages and one-off campaigns where the footer should disappear.

Notes

• Social handles are configured in Theme settings → Social media, not per-section. The footer pulls handles from the global setting.
• Payment icons render automatically from Shopify Payments' enabled methods. No per-icon configuration.
• The newsletter form posts to Shopify's customer-form endpoint. Email captures land in Shopify Admin → Customers, tagged as accepting marketing.
