extra_navbar and extra_footer ignored

[felixchenier]

Describe the bug

context When I add a string in either/both of extra_navbar and extra_footer, these strings are ignored. The navbar still shows the "Theme by the Executable Book Project" and the footer still shows the copyright line.

expectation Following the documentation, it seems that putting a string in these options would change these default values.

I checked for the obvious problems: I'm editing the good _config.yml (if I put goofy strings with syntax errors, it won't build).

thank you note I added this section to thank you for this wonderful project. I'm currently working on an hybrid book/manual/package and jupyter-book is close to heaven for this.

Reproduce the bug

Here is the contents from my _config.yml file. See that I wrote some junk in extra_navbar and extra_footer, but the result is still the default values, even if I completely wipe the _build folder.

I found my problem. I have two sections that customize the theme: a first html section, then a config.html_theme_options section. I don't understand well how they both work together, but if I move the extra_navbar and extra_footer lines in the config.html_theme_options instead of the html section, it works.

Same Issue,

For some reason, this is working

html: 
  extra_footer: |
          <div>
          </div>

But

html: 
  extra_navbar: |
          <div>
          </div>

or

html_theme_options:
  extra_navbar : >
    <div align="left">
    <h1>HELLO-TEST</h1>
    </div>

both are not working

Still an issue folks
