Howto: Use RockFrontend's footerlinks

[bernhard]

Every site that I create needs some kind of links in the footer. It's not much work to create a page reference field for that, but it's not much fun as well 🙂 

That's why RockFrontend creates a "footerlinks" field and adds it to the home template for you:

With the latest commit you can easily access those pages in your template file:

<ul>
  <li n:foreach="$rockfrontend->footerlinks() as $link">
    <a href="{$link->url}">{$link->title}</a>
  </li>
</ul>

In version 2.9.1 I have to manually enable this feature and others.

Will this be enabled by default now?

No, the idea is that RockFrontend is unobtrusive. That means you should be able to install it without any unwanted side effects happening. If you find anything that violates this concept let me know 🙂 

But if you update and check that box for "footerlinks" you'll be able to call $rockfrontend->footerlinks() in your template files 🙂

Ok, that's perfect this way. Especially in existing projects in which everything is already defined and in place.
