Topic summary

A store owner using Shopify’s Dawn theme wants to reorganize their footer layout by moving the email newsletter signup to appear as a column alongside menu items, rather than in a separate row.

Initial Request:

  • Move ‘Subscribe to get latest’ section next to ‘Customer care’ menu
  • Display all footer elements (menus, newsletter, social icons) in a single-row column layout
  • Preference for a no-code solution or one-time purchase app

Solution Provided:
A community member (namphan) offered direct assistance by:

  • Requesting collaborator access to the store
  • Modifying the footer.liquid file with custom code
  • Adding CSS to section-footer.css to adjust social icon alignment
  • Providing step-by-step instructions for future text edits

Key Code Changes:

  • Complete replacement of footer.liquid file structure
  • CSS addition: .footer-block-newsletter .list-social styling for proper icon positioning
  • Text changes made through theme customizer settings (not code)

Outcome:
The original issue was successfully resolved. The thread later attracted similar requests from other users (898, bpuc) seeking the same footer layout modification, with ongoing troubleshooting for marketplace link additions.
