As an example we will customise the footer of our document so we click on the button "Footer Middle";

If we want to customise this section we need to uncheck the field "Keep this field empty", then in the text box we supply the content that will be displayed in this section of the web page.. 

The content can either be in plain text, or text in html form (for example we could add "<a href="http://das06.deepnet2fa.com:8076/drp" >password reset</a>" if we wanted to add a link to the password reset module)

Once the customised content has been entered click "Save", and repeat this process for any other sections you need to customise.
