CSS-based Persistent Copyright "footer" on Cover Page and Internally?

My site is using the Wells template, which I started with -- yes, I realize it's older and eventually I'll handle that.

Wells does not support a footer (puzzling).   There is no method to migrate Wells to an equivalent (7.1) template (more puzzling).

I am using a cover page along with the rest of the template pages.   I figured out how to place a (C) Copyright in the bottom of the menu, in Wells.  But what I'm really trying to accomplish is placing this via CSS in the equivalent of a footer that is uniform across all pages, including the cover, in a light gray color.

So basically:

     (C) 2021 My Name. All rights reserved.

or something like that.

The Cover item is different from the internal pages, so it would likely need to be referenced as such in CSS.  I just can't seem to figure out how to do this.

Thank you.

Hi,

Add it under page content or in Left Side Header?

I was thinking something more uniform that appeared in a "footer" section of each page.  Wells doesn't provide a footer, but I believe CSS can create (or position) it.   It might be aligned left, right or center-ish.

I meant you want to copyright will appear in under page content (all pages) or in left side header (all pages)

I'd like the copyright to appear on all pages; though, the cover page might need it positioned differently.

I suggested that SquareSpace invest more in their templating to accommodate some of these matters.  

In an older template 7.0 (not sure which design I selected) palazzodelgolfo.com I was able to add this markup code as a block element

 <p> Copyright &copy; <script>document.write(new Date().getFullYear())</script>   Palazzo del Golfo</p>

But I am not able to do this on site I am currently designing. Its a 7.1 template. Is this a limitation of 7.1 or just the template I selected? I didn't realize I selected a commerce template either. A bit overkill for my needs at the moment.

actually I figured out how to add a markup block. so this will be working soon for palazzods.com
