A user encountered an issue where the footer was missing from their homepage but appeared on all other pages in the Archetype Themes Motion theme, despite being enabled in theme settings.
Root Cause Identified:
Another user diagnosed the problem as an unclosed HTML comment tag that was hiding a Yotpo carousel. This unclosed comment effectively commented out the footer section.
Technical Details:
Resolution:
The user’s team resolved the issue by copying the footer code directly into the file at the end, which successfully restored the footer display on the homepage.
Hi, i am using archetypethemes motion theme and realised footer is not appearing on homepage.
However it is appearing on all the other pages. I have checked the theme setting and footer has been enabled as a block and visible on admin view. Anyone has any idea what the issue it is not reflecting on my live home page?
You’ve opened a HTML comment to hide the Yotpo carousel, but not closed that comment, so the footer is essentially commented out.
Hi, can i know where i can find the html comment?
Go to your home page, view source, line 3680 you open the comment with <!-- there’s no matching close tag, a new open comment appears line 4238 with close tag, but that only closes itself, you can’t have a html comment inside another html comment.
There are 24 open comment tags on the home page, but only 23 close tags.
Search your codebase for ‘yotpo-reviews-carousel’ the open comment is right above it.
Thank you for the assistance. My team actually copied in the footer code into the file in the end and it works.
