How to Include Different WordPress Footers
Set footer options for your WordPress theme to show a different footer image each time someone visits your page, just as other developers do with different header images. Modifying the WordPress footer file to change footer options requires only that you paste in code that's already been written, so you don't need to be a Web design expert in order to customize a WordPress blog in this manner.
