<p><strong>Header Footer Builder</strong> is a lightweight yet powerful plugin that lets you design fully custom headers and footers for your WordPress site — and precisely control where each one appears using flexible display conditions.</p>
<p>Unlike other header footer plugins, every template comes with a built-in <strong>include/exclude rule system</strong>. You can show a unique header on your homepage, a different one on WooCommerce shop pages, and hide the footer entirely on landing pages — all without writing a single line of code.</p>
<h3>Key Features</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Unlimited templates</strong> — Create as many header and footer templates as you need.</li>
<li><strong>Display conditions</strong> — Show or hide templates based on:
<ul>
<li>Entire site</li>
<li>Front page, blog index page</li>
<li>Specific pages or posts (search and select by name)</li>
<li>All posts, all pages, all custom post types</li>
<li>Category archives, tag archives, all archive pages</li>
<li>Author archive pages</li>
<li>Search results pages</li>
<li>404 pages</li>
<li>WooCommerce shop, product, cart, checkout, my account pages</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Include & exclude rules</strong> — Include a template sitewide and exclude it from specific pages, or vice versa.</li>
<li><strong>Priority-based matching</strong> — More specific rules always win. A rule targeting a specific page beats a rule targeting all pages, which beats a sitewide rule.</li>
<li><strong>Works with any page builder</strong> — Use the native WordPress block editor (Gutenberg), Elementor, or any other builder to design your templates.</li>
<li><strong>Theme compatibility</strong> — Works with popular themes including Astra, GeneratePress, OceanWP, Kadence, Hello Elementor, and more.</li>
<li><strong>Zero bloat</strong> — No external dependencies or heavy frameworks. Fast and standards-compliant.</li>
<li><strong>Developer friendly</strong> — Clean OOP PHP, PSR-style autoloading, React-based admin UI, REST API-powered.</li>
</ul>
<h3>How Display Conditions Work</h3>
<ol>
<li>Create a header or footer template in the builder.</li>
<li>Click <strong>Conditions</strong> next to any template.</li>
<li>Add <strong>Include Rules</strong> to define where the template should appear.</li>
<li>Add <strong>Exclude Rules</strong> to carve out exceptions.</li>
<li>Save — the template is now live with smart targeting.</li>
</ol>
<p>Rules are priority-scored: specific page/post targets score highest, followed by post-type rules, then archive rules, then the sitewide catch-all. The highest-scoring matching template wins.</p>
<h3>Perfect For</h3>
<ul>
<li>Landing pages that need no header or footer</li>
<li>WooCommerce stores with checkout-specific headers</li>
<li>Blogs with a different header for category archive pages</li>
<li>Membership sites with role-specific navigation</li>
<li>Multipage sites that need per-section branding</li>
</ul>
