    Footer display problems can usually be resolved with a few adjustments in the Journal theme settings or layout design. Follow these steps:

    1. Enable Footer in Theme Settings:
      • Go to Journal Control Panel > Footer.
      • Ensure the footer is enabled and check the “Show Footer” toggle.
    2. Configure Footer Blocks and Widgets:
      • Go to Journal Control Panel > Footer > Blocks.
      • Check that footer widgets (e.g., Contact Info, Social Links, Newsletter) are added and configured properly.
    3. Verify Footer Layout Assignment:
      • Navigate to Design > Layouts.
      • Confirm the footer is included in the layout for all pages (Home, Category, Product, etc.).
    4. Inspect CSS or Styling Conflicts:
      • Go to Journal Control Panel > Custom CSS.
      • Check for any custom CSS that could be hiding or misaligning the footer. Remove or modify problematic code.
    5. Adjust Footer Height and Padding:
      • Go to Journal Control Panel > Footer > General Settings.
      • Modify footer height, padding, or margins to ensure proper alignment and spacing.
    6. Test on Multiple Devices:
      • Check how the footer displays on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.
      • Go to Journal Control Panel > Skins > Responsive Settings and adjust settings if necessary.
    7. Regenerate Cache:
      • Go to Journal Control Panel > Cache.
      • Clear JavaScript and CSS cache to reflect recent changes.
    8. Update Theme Version:
      • Outdated Journal theme versions may cause footer issues. Update to the latest version to ensure bug fixes and compatibility.
    9. Disable Conflicting Extensions:
      • Disable third-party extensions that affect page layout or footer behavior to rule out conflicts.
    10. Inspect for HTML Errors in Custom Blocks:
      • If using custom HTML blocks in the footer, ensure the code is valid and doesn’t contain errors.
      • Use an online HTML validator to double-check the code.

    Comments: A well-structured footer is critical to your website’s design and usability. If these steps don’t solve the issue, feel free to contact your theme developer or share more details for personalized help. Thanks, and good luck! 😊
