Multiple footers?

[kgajda]

Hi!

I have two different footer html files that I would like to use in my webhelp output. I am using the webhelp.fragment.footer parameter currently to point to my footer, but I would like a different, larger footer on the index landing page. Is it possible to reference a different footer file/fragment in that page only?

Thanks for your help
Kim

Hello,

To use different footer file for index page you should follow this procedure:

1. Create a backup copy of the "${DITA-OT-DIR}\plugins\com.oxygenxml.webhelp.responsive\templates\dita\bootstrap" directory. This could be helpful if you want to revert your changes.
2. Copy "${DITA-OT-DIR}\plugins\com.oxygenxml.webhelp.responsive\templates\dita\bootstrap\footer.xml" file to "${DITA-OT-DIR}\plugins\com.oxygenxml.webhelp.responsive\templates\dita\bootstrap\index_footer.xml"
3. Open newly created "${DITA-OT-DIR}\plugins\com.oxygenxml.webhelp.responsive\templates\dita\bootstrap\index_footer.xml" file and replace

   Code: Select all

   <whc:include_html href="${webhelp.fragment.footer}"/>

   with

   Code: Select all

   <whc:include_html href="${webhelp.fragment.index.footer}"/>

4. Open "${DITA-OT-DIR}\plugins\com.oxygenxml.webhelp.responsive\templates\dita\bootstrap-custom\wt_index.html" file and replace

   Code: Select all

   <!ENTITY footer SYSTEM "footer.xml">

   with

   Code: Select all

   <!ENTITY footer SYSTEM "index_footer.xml">[/list]

5. Edit the "Configure Transformation Scenario(s)" dialog
6. Edit the "DITA Map WebHelp Responsive" transformation scenario
7. In the "Templates" tab select a template
8. Go to "Parameters" tab
9. Add a new parameter by pressing the "New" button. Enter "webhelp.fragment.index.footer" in the "Name" field and select your custom footer file that should be included on the index page
10. Edit the "webhelp.fragment.footer" parameter to point to the custom footer file that should be included in all other pages
