Newbie question on adding extra content to footer

[HTenkanen]

Hi, I'd like to add extra content to the footer of my website but don't quite know how to do it. I know there is the extrafooter block in footer.html (discussed here) but how can I add stuff to that from conf.py?

I would just love to add couple of Licence logos (CC 4.0 BY-SA and GPLv3) to the footer and have been searching for a solution to achieve that. Thanks, in advance!

This page in the Sphinx docs explains how to add stuff to an existing block.

For the extrafooter block, you need to put a new HTML file into your templates_path (usually /_templates), with the following content:

{% extends "!footer.html" %}
{% block extrafooter %}
    <p><a href="http://foo">new example link</a></p>
    {{ super() }}
{% endblock %}

Here's an example from a project of mine.
