Summary

For our site, we need to have a different footer design on the home page than the one we use on all of the other pages. There are two separate footer liquid snippets: transparent-footer.liquid (home page) and footer.liquid (all other pages).

To swap out these footers, I've added the following snippet of code in our theme.liquid:

{% if template == 'index' %}
      {% section 'transparent-footer' %}
{% else %}
      {% section 'footer' %}
{% endif %}

I noticed that when I first load the home page, I get the correct footer (transparent-footer.liquid). When I go to another page, I get the correct footer (footer.liquid). But when I return to the home page from one of the other pages, the incorrect footer (footer.liquid) displays. What should I do to correct this? This may be on the Shopify side, but I'm curious to know if there's anything about Slater that might be influencing something like this

So far, I've tried a variety of different variations on the if condition such as: {% if request.page_type == 'index' %} and {% if template.name contains 'index' %}
