Default How do I use a different footer in section 2 than in section 1?

My document has 2 sections. Section 1 footer needs to be differrent than
section 2. Section 2 is a continuous section; it does not start a new page.
When I put my cursor on the footer at the bottom of the page on which section
2 starts, it says "Footer -section 1-." How do I create the new footer for
section 2?

Temporarily insert a hard page break (Ctrl+Enter). Either start with the
cursor on the next page and go to the footer area, or start in the Section 1
footer and click the Next button on the Header/Footer toolbar.

When you get there, be sure to click the Same As Previous button to remove
that phrase from the footer's boundary. If you forget this step, changing
the Section 2 footer will also change the Section 1 footer and vice versa.
