Hi Community

Another question on my list: What’s the best way to handle static content?

EE have a very easy to use Template System. The Problem: What when I want have a footer which I can change for all my Templates in my Template_Group? The Best Way: Use a Static Footer. But how I should realize this?

Any Tips?

Hiya,

If you want a footer which is totally static then you can just make a new template and make sure its type is set to static. You can them {embed} the template into all your other templates.

However if you want a footer that has some dynamic information in it such as recent entries or something like that then just create a template in the normal way and don’t make the template type static just leave it as it is and then your footer can still be embedded on every single template but it will also be dynamic.

Hope that helps.

Best wishes,

If you are looking for a way to centralize the storage of a common footer that get reused across templates, then do it as an embedded template.

Within that template the content could either be hardcoded or pulled from a weblog.

Sounds good. Thanks Guys.

I will try that method.

No problem at all.

Let us know if you need anything else with it.

You could use Global Variables or Fresh Variables.
