An empty footer partial template exists at layout/partials, but it is not used anywhere, i.e. {{ partial "footer.html" . }} is not present in any of the templates.
According to my understanding, this makes adding a custom footer impossible without forking the whole theme.
Since /layouts/partials/footer.html is empty by default, it would not hurt using it in the site templates.
I am very new to all of Hugo and also its themes, so if I have missed a key concept here feel free to correct me.
