+## Custom Footer Section
+
+You can add a custom section the footer between the language/theme buttons and the Copyright/Powered By section by creating a file `layouts/partials/custom/footer.html` in your site __and__ setting `customSection: true` in the `footer` section of your `hugo.yaml`:
+
+```yaml {filename="hugo.yaml"}
+ footer:
+    enable: true
+    customSection: true
+    # These settings are still respected
+    displayCopyright: false
+    displayPoweredBy: true
+    # This setting applies to the custom section
+    with: "wide"
+```
+
+Variables available in the footer are:
+
+- `{{ .footerButtonColor }}` - The color/background color of a footer button
+
+_Note: The custom footer inherits the default footer background color and text color._
+
 ## Custom Layouts
 
 The layouts of the theme can be overridden by creating a file with the same name in the `layouts` directory of your site.
