  About this resource

  This add-on creates a dynamic expanded footer with multiple columns and easy to set options. All text are phrases for easy translations and most admins will be able to have a great looking footer by selecting options in the ACP. All columns can be specified to automatically hide at a XF defined width (wide/medium/narrow) or to always be shown.
  
  After installing set your options in the ACP at Setup => Options => [CinVin] Footer Tweaks.
  
  At it's simplest, you just need to turn on both the Enable Extended Footer and Disable Default Footer options.
  
  In the screenshot below, the options to achieve the result was to turn on Enable Extended Footer, Disable Default Footer, and Enable the 'Network' column. After turning on Enable the 'Network' column several URLs were added. For getting the Font Awesome icons to show, the definitions are entered like fad fa-ufo. All of the other links and values were automatically generated.
