A user running Dawn 15.1.0 theme seeks help redesigning their footer to match a reference site’s layout. The current footer differs significantly from the desired design, particularly in mobile view.
Key Issue:
The reference site uses a custom footer implementation, not standard theme settings
The desired footer layout includes different block arrangements and styling
Proposed Solution:
A respondent suggests customizing the Sections/footer.liquid file by:
Moving the newsletter section into a block format for easier arrangement
Creating a dedicated newsletter block in the schema settings
Copying existing newsletter code into the new block structure
Adding conditional rendering to check if block type is “newsletter”
This approach would enable flexible footer customization similar to the reference example without requiring extensive custom styling.

The theme you are referent it also use Dawn theme too, so to implement footer on your store like that theme, i think you can check at footer setting and setup blocks like theme example is ok.
Yes, to achieve that you need to customize code in Sections/footer.liquid file. Move the newsletter part to block to arrange as like other blocks.
To easy to setting yo should make a block called newsletter in setting schema, then in code check if type is “newsletter” will render newsletter code here. You can also copy code from newsletter part has already to paste in the block like that you not need to style for that part.
