Footer About

A footer "About" column with logo, description and optional address, using the .footer-logo markup. It is shown in the block inserter as Canvas Footer About and registered as canvas-core/footer-about.

Select the block on a page and its own settings open in the sidebar, in the panels below:

Settings

Each setting is named exactly as the block editor names it, followed by what it does and what it starts as. Where a setting carries a Shown when line, it stays hidden until that condition is met, which is the usual reason a setting looks missing from the sidebar:

Content

  • Use Site LogoDefaultOn

    Falls back to the Site Logo (Dark) from Theme Options, then the Site Logo, when no custom image is set below.

  • Custom Logo ImageDefault0

    Overrides the site logo above.

  • Custom Logo URL (fallback)DefaultEmpty

    Used when no attachment is selected above (e.g. shipped pattern content).

  • Logo Alt TextDefaultEmpty

    How the logo is described to someone who cannot see it, and to a search engine. Leave it empty to use the description saved with the file.

  • DescriptionDefaultWe believe in Simple, Creative & Flexible Design Standards with a Retina & Responsive Approach.

    Short brand statement shown under the logo. Basic HTML (e.g. ) is allowed.

  • Address (optional)DefaultEmpty

    Optional address / contact line(s) rendered inside an tag. One line per row. Inline HTML (, , , , ) is allowed.

  • Contact LinesDefaultEmpty

    Labelled contact rows rendered under the address. A Tooltip value wraps the label in an tag (the accessible expansion of the abbreviated label).

    Each row of Contact Lines takes:

    • LabelDefaultEmpty

      What this row is, shown in bold before the value.

    • Label Tooltip (abbr title)DefaultEmpty

      Set to wrap the label in . Leave empty for a plain bold label.

    • ValueDefaultEmpty

      The detail itself, such as the telephone number or the address you want people to write to.

    • Value Link (optional)DefaultEmpty

      Makes the value clickable. Start it with mailto: to open a mail message, or tel: to start a call.

Style

  • Contact Box BackgroundDefault0

    Optional watermark image behind the address + contact lines.

  • Contact Box Background URL (fallback)DefaultEmpty

    Used when no attachment is selected above (e.g. shipped pattern content).

  • Column ClassesDefaultcol-md-6 col-lg-4

    Bootstrap grid classes for the column wrapper.

    Shown when No Wrapper Elements is off

  • No Wrapper ElementsDefaultOff

    Emit the logo, text and address on their own, with no column and no widget box, for a design whose container already provides both. It is ignored when the block carries classes, an identifier, custom styling or custom attributes, since those need an element to sit on.

Every Canvas block also carries the Animation, Scroll Effects and Advanced panels, which are described in Controls every Canvas block has.

Other blocks in Layout: Column, Container, Copyrights, Footer Contacts, Footer Instagram, Footer Widget Area.
