+# Maintenance for customizations
+
+### Footer
+The DLS Service has a custom footer to contribute to the consortium image of the eFlows Project. The design of the custom footer is part of templates/main.html. This file is being injected as a volume in docker-compose.yaml, thus overriding the existing template from the public airflow image. For testing reasons, the path has been hard-coded in the docker-compose.yaml. 
+
+### Updates
+ Taking a hard-coded path approach means that with every update of the official airflow image, the currect main.html file has to be pulled anew from the official container. 
+ 
+ For example:
+
+ ```docker exec airflow_airflow-webserver_1 find /home/airflow/ | grep main.html ```
+ 
+ Copy this file into the local repository and substitute the ```<footer>``` section with the custom DLS ```%footer%``` block. In case of a new python version in the official airflow image (and container) you will need to adjust the new path in the volume section of the docker-compose.yaml.
