Two footers are being created for pages with Themebuilder

[Ramsay Mayka]

I am running a trial with Themebuilder (editor version 5.0.8, engine version 1.0.7-beta5) for Confluence (version 5.5.3)

When I enable Themebuilder for a space, the footer does not display properly

It appears that two footers are being created that overlap. Here is what the offending html code looks like

<div id="footer">
                  <section class="footer-body">
                     <p class="license license-eval">
                        <strong> EVALUATION LICENSE </strong>

This occurs with the default skin.

I want to demo the functionality of Themebuilder, but this is the kind of glaring error that is hard to talk around.

Our support team will be getting back to you shortly with a fuller answer for this. In the meantime we have found that the issue with a duplicate footer is happening because the default Confluence layout has changed the location of its own footer within the HTML. We will be updating the ThemeBuilder ROOT skin to allow for this change as soon as possible.

[Ramsay Mayka]

Thanks for the quick response. I also got an email from another person at Adaptavisit with a temporary work around.

[Sharon Hinde]

This was answered in more detail through Adaptavist support, and a patch was released in ThemeBuilder version 5.1.0 https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.adaptavist.confluence.themes.sitebuilder/versions

Hi Ramsay,

I'm going to look into this for you. Can I confirm that it is happening with the ROOT skin in ThemeBuilder?

Yes that looks correct Ramsay. Get back to you soon on this.

I believe that I am using ROOT. Here is the skin selection for the space

Theme builder is an addon not made by atlassian http://www.adaptavist.com/w/products-plugins/premium/themebuilder/
