yeah, I just did the same thing. I took my entire footer out because I made one myself for the rest of my site. You can check it out if you want ??
I used an SSL to call the footer in the rest of the site, but since WP uses php, I included it with the php function. However, it wasn’t sticking to the bottom! So, I just removed the entire footer – bother the WP one and my custom one.
