Help and Support - Editing homepage footer

Hi Guys, When we fist developed our site we set up the quick links in the footer, James kindly put in some code to make the quick links spaced out a little. I now need to change one of my footers but I can't because the names aren't there anymore. I have attached some screen shots, has anyone got any ideas? Cheers Koulton

Hi Koulton,

The variable block code you've included in your screenshot is the one uses for the Trust logo, search box and the grey/purple main navigation in the header. Within your site to edit the green bar you need to look at the variable blocks "HEADER-LEFT" and "HEADER-RIGHT".

HEADER-RIGHT includes a bullet-point list of links that you can edit by hand using the rich-text editor. Add, edit or remove the items in the list to update the links in the green bar.

Let us know how you get on.

Hi James,

Ahhh so it is, I can access the left header but the right header is hidden? Unfortunately I can't add another image to this reply.

You should see something along the lines of:

Clicking the bullet point list should bring up the rich-text editor allowing you to edit the content of the variable block.

If you are trying to edit the header on a smaller area of the site you may need to choose one of alternate versions of the variable block from the table below the bullet point list. Are you seeing what we're seeing?

I get that for the left one but there is nowhere to click for the right side its just a plain green bar?

Don't try and edit from the bar itself; instead go to Build > Variable Blocks > HEADER-RIGHT.
