Hi,

On the Block UI for WetKit Omega the Footer region is selectable for example, but fails to show blocks assigned to that region. We can see in "Demonstrate block regions (WetKit Omega)" that there is no yellow region (attached) for the footer region. We can see for the Omega theme "Demonstrate block regions (Omega)" that there is a yellow selectable region (attached) displaying blocks if assigned to that region.

I found that the mid_footer_menu is added manually in code in wetkit_omega/preprocess/system/page.preprocess.inc. This seemed strange to me to disable the block UI.

Is the Footer region really managed in code only, if so is there a reason for this? Or is this in fact a bug? I couldn't find a related issue or documentation on this.

Thank you,
Paul.

This regions were hardcoded to support minipanels for those regions as they were expected to align exactly to the WET-BOEW jQuery Front-end. Additionally and like other distributions such as Panopoly we usually discourage the use of the block ui but have relaxed that restriction a bit for the content wrapper elements of the theme which panels doesn't directly control since we are not using panels everywhere.

I don't see a problem in relaxing the block footer to render both the minipanel and allow other blocks to placed there should the user desire.

Commit forthcoming.
