Keep page-end information reachable beneath growing lists

What to change

Ask the supplier to ensure continuously loaded content does not prevent deliberate access to page-end navigation.

A worked example

Illustrative example

A visitor can stop extending a resource list and reach the footer's contact links, rather than having those links repeatedly move farther down the page.

How to check the result

Accept when page-end destinations remain reachable through a predictable interaction regardless of how many list items are available.

A mistake to avoid

Duplicating one footer link near the top does not solve the broader problem if other important page-end routes remain unreachable.

Your action checklist

Use these checks to prepare a discussion with your team or supplier. Tick a check when you have recorded the decision or evidence, rather than when a feature has simply been promised.

Decisions to recordScroll toward the footer on a long list and observe whether another batch loads before the footer can be reached. Repeat with keyboard navigation.Ask the supplier to provide a practical boundary, pause mechanism or separate route to the footer information appropriate to the design.Test with a slower connection and fewer results. The proposed solution should work at both the beginning and the actual end of the collection.
