Site footer and address

Editing the footer address

By default, this theme uses the information for BU Research in the footer. You can edit this by going to Appearance > Customize and expanding the footer section. The address is in the Additional Information box.

You’ll need to use the proper HTML tags for everything to work correctly. As you update this, please ensure your address follows the pattern below:

<address>
<strong>Boston University</strong> Your Site Name Here
Your Street Here, Your Floor Here, Boston, MA 02215
</address>

Editing the footer links

By default, this theme will fill in a footer links menu with Research contact information in it. For the icons to show, if you change this information, you’ll need to ensure you add links using the following HTML:

<a href="tel:YOURNUMBERHERE">YOURNUMBERHERE</a>
<a href="mailto:YOUREMAILHERE">YOUREMAILHERE</a>

You can edit this menu by going to Appearance > Menu and selecting Footer Links from the menu dropdown.

Adding social links

No social links are added to your theme by default, but they will appear in the footer if you add them.

  1. Create a new menu by going to Appearance > Menus and clicking the “create a new menu” link.
  2. Assign this menu to the Social Links location.
  3. Add links to your social media services. Common services that are supported by default include Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn.
