# How to customize the footer

A custom **footer** for the Login window and/or for the main page can be configured to show one or more labels pointing to external links.

As you can see in the reference `configuration-wui.json.sample` file, both the `"login"` and the `"files"` sections have a `"footer"` section where you can enter the parameters for the footers. The footer for the Login window is configured in the `"login"` section and the footer for the main page is configured in the `"files"` section.

The configuration is the same in both sections and requires editing the mandatory parameters as in the following examples.

The first parameter to be configured is the **color** of the text in the footer.

```json
"color": "#00000",
```

Note that the `"color"` parameter can only be expressed by a hex value.

You then need to edit the strings in the `"links"` array as follows:

```json
"links":{ 
        "label": {
           "en":"Contacts",
           "it":"Contatti"
        },
        "url": "https://www.primeur.com/help-desk-support/",
        "newpage": true
        }
```

These are the 3 mandatory parameters that you must configure in the `"links"` section:

* `"label"`: the text that will appear in the footer. If multiple entries are configured for multiple languages, the Browser language will be applied. The default is English, therefore `"en"` must be present.
* `"url"`: the complete url of the page you want to link.
* `"newpage"`: enter `"true"` if you want a separate page to be launched, or `"false"` if you want the File Manager page to be overwritten.

You can customize multiple links in the footer simply repeating the objects contained in the `"links"` array as many times as needed. In this example, 3 links are configured:

```json
"links": [
         {
           "label": {
             "en": "Contacts",
             "it": "Contatti"
           },
           "url": "https://www.primeur.com/help-desk-support/",
           "newpage": true
         },
         {
           "label": {
             "en": "primeur.com",
             "it": "primeur.com"
           },
           "url": "https://www.primeur.com/",
           "newpage": true
         }
         {
           "label": {
             "en": "Privacy Policy",
             "it": "Privacy Policy"
           },
           "url": "https://www.primeur.com/privacy/",
           "newpage": true
         }
       ]
```

The result will appear in the footer as in the figure here below.
