When I am adding a CMS Page with layout as 1column xml. The default header and footer shows fine.

but I have some existing CMS pages which if I update the layout to 1column, it still doesn't show the default header and footers.

If I create a new CMS page and add the same contents, it works, but if delete the existing url key (of the page for which for which header and footers were not showing) - testpage and add the same urlkey testpage to the new page, the headers and footers are removed.

for example I have a CMS page

with url key - shipping-and-returns

and I create new page with URL key shipping with the same contents it works. but If I delete the page with URL key shipping-and-returns and modify the URL key shipping to shipping-and-returns it doesn't work, means header and footers goes missing.

Need some help, what could be causing this issue.

The same thing was happening to me, using claue theme in Magento 2.2

It's not because the - in the url, it's because the whole name shipping-and-returns (or its translation) seems to be reserved by the system or maybe by the theme. I don't know the exact cause of this.

So any "common" url won't work, like shipping-and-returns or payment-methods, notice that if you use the url shipping-and-returns-dsad-ds-asd it works perfectly.

  • I had the same problem in Magento 2.4 . Found out the problem was caused by Porto Theme which removes the footer in the follwing file: app/design/frontend/Smartwave/porto/Magento_Theme/layout/default.xml

Solution for Porto Theme users in Magento 2.4: Edit (or better extend in your child theme): app/design/frontend/Smartwave/porto/Magento_Theme/layout/default.xml

Add the following lines inside <body></body>:

<referenceContainer name="footer-container">
            <block class="Smartwave\Porto\Block\Template" name="footer_block" template="html/footer.phtml">
                <block class="Magento\Store\Block\Switcher" name="footer.store_switcher" template="switch/stores.phtml"/>
                <block class="Magento\Newsletter\Block\Subscribe" name="footer.newsletter" template="subscribe_footer.phtml"/>
            </block>

The reason wich causes the problem is that the Porto theme adds its own footer but not for the effected pages from the problem in this topic.
