Placing a hyperlink in the Footer

Hi
How would you place a hyperlink in the footer of an app.
Example: If I wanted to put in “Terms and Conditions” and thus when the user clicks on this it launches the url hyperlinked to “Terms and Conditions”

I have made something similiar. Try this

  1. Go to Layouts -> HTML templates
  2. Clic “New template” button:

Template of: applications
Type: footer
Target: public
Template: my_custom_template_name

  1. Set the content of the footer, for example:

<a href="BLA_APPLICATION">Terms and conditions</a>
  1. Save
  2. Go to your application an open Layout->header and footer
  3. Set the footer layout to my_custom_template_name
  4. Generate and test

That is all.

Great. How can you reference global (session) variables such as [my_var] in the HTML templates?

#5

Write on your template something like {myglobalvar} and you will see the option to pass a value to the template in footer config

#6

Tested by adding {myvar} to a template and saved. No option to pass a value appeared. Where do I locate this pls?

#7

Should appear, I did it dozen times. Has your app this HTML template selected?

Seen it: appears in the app itself, layout. thanks
