The header:
The header is common to all web pages of your event; changing the header will necessarily change the header on every page. This header is configured by going to the Website tab in the back office of your event, then clicking on Customize this website. Go to one of your event pages by clicking Change the web page at the top left and navigate to Header.
It can include:
The event or organization logo.
The event name.
A navigation menu to different sections in the form of tabs (program, exhibitors, registration…).
An important announcement about your event.
Potentially, quick access links (language, login…).
The footer:
The footer is displayed at the bottom of the site. Like the header, the footer is common to all web pages of your event. It is configured from the Website tab in the back office when you customize your site. Go to one of your event pages and go to Footer. You can modify the background and text colors of your footer.
It can also include:
Your logo or those of your partners.
A menu.
Social media icons with links.

Regarding the header and footer, you can choose to restrict display to a subset of your participants, schedule the display so that it appears on a given date, and hide them in the app.

Visual consistency: use the same colors and typography as the rest of the site.
Accessibility: Check text readability (contrast, size).
Simplicity: do not overload these areas with information.
