Ning Footer Links: Add Simple Text and Links (HTML) to Ning Footer

There are many ways to add simple HTML (Text and Links) to the Ning Footer, none real straightforward on Ning. You should be able to add via Language Editor by searching on existing footer "link text". I haven't tried this in a while, but I think you can still add links via LE.

Old Tip:

Or, you could inject via Custom Code Box with script, and the purpose of this tip - - Add via My Network/Tools/Custom Code:

<!- Before Existing Link: Badges ->

<script type="text/javascript">
if (typeof(x$) != 'undefined') {

x$("#xg_foot .right").prepend('This <a   href="mylink.com">link</a> goes in your footer to left of   existing links like Badges.');

}

else {

}

</script>

<script type="text/javascript">
if (typeof(x$) != 'undefined') {

x$("#xg_foot .left").append('This <a  href="mylink.com">link</a> goes in your footer to right of  Created by:xxxxx. It will wrap other links if you add too much text.');

}

else{

}

</script>

<script type="text/javascript">
if (typeof(x$) != 'undefined') {

x$("#xg_foot").after('Add HTML after Footer');

}

else {

}

</script>

<script type="text/javascript">
if (typeof(x$) != 'undefined') {

x$("#xg_foot").before('Add HTML before Footer');

}

else {

}

</script>

Enjoy!

Jen, I tried the code under <!- Before Existing Link: Badges -> to create a link to our Get Started page. It worked, but it is very close to the Badges link.

It looks something like this: Get Started Citizens Party Badge Help Terms of Service

Did I do something wrong or forget something? How can I add a little bit of space between the new link and the Badge link. Note: I changed the Badge to Citizens Party Badge in the Language Editor.

Whoops, just hit me. I need to come up with some css styling for this case. I'll get back to you soon.

CP,

At first it appeared to me that simple spaces wouldn't work. But I think if we add the escape code for non-breaking spaces it will work just fine and simplify the process. Let me know if this works, and across browsers. Then I'll update the tip. Sorry I overlooked this issue. Use   for each space. Otherwise I'll have to provide padding, and problem is, the entire right portion of footer won't accept padding, has to be by element - - the links. Long story, let me know, then I'll come up with CSS alternative.

if (typeof(x$) != 'undefined') {
x$("#xg_foot .right").prepend('This <a href="mylink.com">link</a> goes in your footer to left of existing links like Badges.    ');
}
else {
}
