How do I edit the header and footer?

Design the site-wide header and footer in the Studio and publish them.

You will have a header and footer that show on every page.

Before you start

You need permission to write content and a plan that includes page editing. A theme with its own built-in header and footer ignores regions.

Steps

  1. Open Content → Global Regions.
  2. On the Header card press Design Header (or Edit Header if it exists). The Studio opens.
  3. Build it. To show navigation, add a Menu element and pick the menu key (for example header).
  4. Press Save, then Publish.
  5. Repeat for the Footer.

What you will see

The card status reads Published, and the header or footer appears on every page, including blog and store.

If something goes wrong

  • Until a region is published, a theme that uses regions shows no header or footer at all.
  • After publishing, later edits stay in the draft but the card still reads "Published".
  • There is no unpublish. To change a published region, edit and publish again.
  • Apply Theme replaces both regions with the theme's and publishes them immediately (the old ones are saved as a version first).
