The sphinx theme that we're using didn't let us specify what exactly to show in our footer in the configuration file. So, what we did was to create a custom template to overwrite everything. Seems like now they changed this in their end, and we should be able to implement in our end the footer we want without requiring the extra template. I didn't check in detail, so some research is needed to see if this is really possible.

Their changes haven't been released yet, so we can't really get this into production until they do. But we can get the PR ready by temporary changing the pydata-sphinx-theme dependency to the git version.

Hi @datapythonista After researching and exploring different ways of displaying the pandas footer without using an extra template I haven't found a solution to stop using it. My closest approach was to use the 'html_context' setting to define the footer content inside the conf.py 

#Variable for the footer
footer = f"""{datetime.now().year}
pandas via <a href="https://numfocus.org">NumFOCUS, Inc.
</a> Hosted by <a href="https://www.ovhcloud.com">OVHcloud</a>"""

html_context = {
    "redirects": dict(moved_api_pages),
    "header": header,
    "footer": footer
}

And just pass the variable to the pandas_footer.html 

<p class="copyright">
    &copy {{footer}} 
</p>

But the template is still needed to render the context variable

html_theme_options = {
    "external_links": [],
    "footer_start": ["pandas_footer", "sphinx-version"],
    "github_url": "https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas",
    "twitter_url": "https://twitter.com/pandas_dev",
    }

This is how its render Pandas DOC: Simplify pandas theme footer

Does anyone have any more ideas for getting rid of the template?
