Custom Article Footers

For articles on the website you can add custom footer text. This can be used, for example, to highlight a specific campus event, sell to a sponsor or just have fans contact you with any typos.

To do this, you would just add an article: rich file named article-footer to any section in the website tab that has a news headlines file in it and all articles in that file will show this footer. For example, if you'd like to have specific footers at the bottom of your Football releases, add this to /sports/fball, if you want one for all sports add it directly to your /sports section and all sports will pick up the same file.
