Aemie edited comment on CAMEL-15185 at 7/2/20, 4:55 PM: -------------------------------------------------------- By statistics, there are a high number of users that scroll down through footers and it is a good practice to include as much as detailing as possible yet keeping a minimal design. I have added a footer design(footer-design.png) based on what I read and additional features that need to be included. I have tried to keep it as minimalistic as possible. What're your thoughts?

On the mobile view, the > footer takes up almost the entire height of my device because the Overview, > Community and About columns do not fit into one row. Secondly, on the desktop > view, the header navigation is fixed at the top, so I can view the header > menu while I'm at the footer of the page. Having same links visible on the > header menu and footer doesn't make sense to me (Download, Community, Blog > etc). I do see a lot of websites having menu links on the footer, but they > don't have a fixed navbar. > Suggestions : I looked up best practices for footers. I think we can reduce > the number of links we display on the footer, especially the ones overlapping > with header menu. We can also add some things (from what I read up on best > practices) - form for subscribing to the mailing list, sitemap link, contact > information, link to report a bug on the website, privacy policy/ terms of > use (if we have) and maybe a subscription for the blog, since we have quite > informative and regular blog posts. I also really like the idea of having a > row of social media icons in the footer, which a lot of websites do. This > will give us the freedom of adding many more icons than on the header menu. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
