Overview

The Footer & Social tab adds a line of custom text and a row of social media icons to the bottom of every page on your gallery website. A live preview at the top of the tab shows exactly how the footer will look. Plan availability: Footer & Social is editable on all plans — there’s no plan gate on this tab in the dashboard.

​
How to Open

1

Go to Settings

Click Settings in the sidebar.
2

Select Footer & Social

Click the Footer & Social tab.
You can also open it directly at /settings?tab=footer.

​
Live Preview

The card at the top of the tab shows how the footer will look on the public website. It updates as you change footer text or add social links. A Powered by 9pic.ai line always appears in the live preview — that line is part of the platform footer and is shown regardless of plan.

​
Footer Text

Add a short line of text that appears in the footer of every page. Common uses:
  • Copyright notice — e.g. © 2026 Your Organisation
  • Photographer credit
  • Sponsor acknowledgement

Click Add Social Link

In the Social Media Links card, click Add Social Link at the bottom of the list.
2

Choose a platform

Select a platform from the Platform dropdown. Already-used platforms are hidden from the list so you cannot add the same platform twice.
3

Enter the URL

Paste your full profile URL into the URL field. The placeholder text shows the expected format for the platform you picked.
4

Add more (optional)

Repeat for additional platforms. The count above the list shows how many links are added.
5

Save

Click Save Footer Changes at the bottom of the page.
Each platform can only appear once. When every supported platform has been added, the Add Social Link button is disabled and labelled All Platforms Added.
URLs must start with https://. If your URL does not start with https://, a yellow warning appears under the field — fix the URL before saving.
Click the red trash icon on the right side of any social link row to remove it. The removal is applied immediately in the live preview, but you still need to click Save Footer Changes to keep the change.
