How to create a custom footer in Adalo?

Step 1: Open Your Adalo Project

First things first, log in to your Adalo account and open up the project where you want to add that snazzy custom footer.

Step 2: Navigate to the Screen

Head over to the specific screen where you want to plop down the footer. You can either whip up a new screen or pick an existing one.

Step 3: Open the Components Panel

On the left-hand side, you'll spot the Components panel. Click to open it up and browse for the goodies you'll need.

Step 4: Add a Rectangle Component

From the Components panel, drag a 'Rectangle' component onto the screen. Place it right at the bottom to serve as the footer background.

Step 5: Adjust the Rectangle Properties

Resize that rectangle to stretch across the entire width of the screen. Set the height to whatever suits your footer needs. You can tweak the color and styling in the properties panel on the right.

Step 6: Add Text Components

Drag 'Text' components onto the rectangle to fill your footer with content like copyright info, links, or contact details. Adjust the font size, color, and alignment in the properties panel.

Step 7: Include Icon Components

Need some icons (like social media ones)? Drag the 'Icon' component from the Components panel onto the rectangle and place them where you want. Customize their size and color as needed.

Step 8: Add Links to Icons and Text

If you want any of the text or icons to be clickable links, set their link destinations in the properties panel. Choose the screen or URL they should navigate to.

Step 9: Group the Components

Select all the components you've added to the footer (rectangle, text, icons, etc.) and group them together. Right-click and select 'Group' to make them act as a single unit. This helps keep things tidy when you replicate it across multiple screens.

Step 10: Copy and Paste the Footer

Copy the grouped footer and paste it onto other screens where you want the footer to appear. Ensure consistency across all screens.

Step 11: Preview and Publish

Preview your app to see how the custom footer looks and functions. Make any necessary tweaks, then publish your app when you're happy with it.

By following these steps, you can create a custom footer in Adalo that enhances both design and functionality.
