  4. Click on the All Templates drop-down menu and select Top and Bottom Banners.
  5. Beside Select Template, you should see “Bottom banner for plain text postings [BOTTOM_BANNER]”.
  6. Click Edit Template.
  7. In the contents box, enter the information for your bottom banner (four lines of text or less is best). Click Update.
  8. A message at the top of the screen should appear with the changes.
