Magento CE 2.2.4 Luma Theme footer setting error

[WZ_OZES]

I tried to edit the Copy Right footer under Luma Theme. It is under Content -> Configuration, The scope is store view. No matter how I modify the message, i always get error message saying "Something went wrong while saving this configuration: Area is already set". I was able to modify this footer in previous version. Because I changed the year from 2017 to 2018 at the beginning of the year and it was ok. but now it keep giving me this error. Something wrong with CE 2.2.4?

Seems to This is the bug for magento 2.2.4

I have faced the same type of error but our data was changed so we have to wait magento will solve this issue.

If you change anything on that page changes will be applied.

So you don't want to worry about it you can change your content successfully.

How did you get around with this error, Rakesh?

This is the bug for all that migrated from older version to latest 2.2.4

So we have to wait until Magento will fix this bug but this bug is not hurdle for our site anyway because our changes will be taken by site and all the changes are saved.

Maybe i have to create a new footer block myself until Magento fix this issue.

How can I remove the magento footer?

[Rakesh Jesadiya]

You just need to add below xml in default.xml file,

<referenceContainer name="footer-container" remove="true"/>

Hi Rakesh, using this command will only remove the footer container. Copy right is still there. Below is the code inside default.xml

<referenceContainer name="footer">
<block class="Magento\Store\Block\Switcher" name="store_switcher" as="store_switcher" after="footer_links" template="Magento_Store::switch/stores.phtml"/>
</referenceContainer>
<referenceBlock name="report.bugs" remove="true"/>
<move element="copyright" destination="before.body.end"/>
<referenceBlock name="footer_links" remove="true"/>

[Rakesh Jesadiya]

You can use below xml,

<referenceContainer name="footer" remove="true"/>

if still error let me know.
