    Follow these steps to fix footer display issues in the Journal theme:

    1. Check Footer Module Settings:
      • Navigate to Journal Control Panel > Modules > Footer.
      • Ensure the footer module is enabled and configured with all necessary content blocks, such as links, contact details, or social icons.
    2. Verify Layout Assignments:
      • Go to Design > Layouts.
      • Ensure the footer module is assigned to the correct layout and position (e.g., Layout > Content Bottom).
    3. Inspect Footer Block Visibility:
      • In Journal Control Panel > Footer Blocks, check the visibility settings for each block.
      • Make sure the blocks are enabled and assigned to the correct store and customer groups.
    4. Clear Cache:
      • Navigate to Journal Control Panel > Cache.
      • Clear the layout, CSS, and JavaScript caches to apply any recent changes.
    5. Disable Custom Footer Scripts:
      • If custom CSS or JavaScript has been added to the footer, temporarily disable it to check for conflicts.
      • Go to Journal Control Panel > Custom Code and remove or comment out any footer-specific code.
    6. Check for Conflicting Extensions:
      • Temporarily disable third-party extensions related to layout or design to identify potential conflicts.
    7. Ensure Footer Images/Icons Are Uploaded:
      • If using images or icons in the footer (e.g., payment icons), verify that these assets are uploaded correctly under Journal Control Panel > Footer.
    8. Review-Journal Theme Skin Settings:
      • Go to Journal Control Panel > Skins and ensure the footer area is enabled and styled appropriately.
      • Check for misconfigured padding, margins, or CSS settings in the footer skin options.
    9. Inspect Error Logs:
      • Navigate to System > Maintenance > Error Logs to check for any errors related to the footer loading or module configuration.
    10. Reset to Default Footer Settings:
      • If all else fails, reset the footer settings to default under Journal Control Panel > Modules > Footer > Reset to Default.
