WPF ModernUI same footer for all pages

Question

I'm trying to implement something-like-footer (same content/page for whole app) in my ModernUI WPF app. In mainwindow.xaml I have basic Menu (expanded examples)

    <mui:ModernWindow.MenuLinkGroups>
        <mui:LinkGroup DisplayName="Sports">
            <mui:LinkGroup.Links>
                <mui:Link DisplayName="Home" Source="/Pages/Home.xaml"/>
                <mui:Link DisplayName="Football" Source="/Pages/Sports/Football.xaml" />
                <mui:Link DisplayName="Handball" Source="/Pages/Sports/Handball.xaml" />
                <mui:Link DisplayName="Basketball" Source="/Pages/Sports/Basketball.xaml" />
                <mui:Link DisplayName="Tennis" Source="/Pages/Sports/Tennis.xaml" />
                <mui:Link DisplayName="Volleyball" Source="/Pages/Sports/Volleyball.xaml" />
                <mui:Link DisplayName="Beach handball" Source="/Pages/Sports/BeachHandball.xaml" />
                <mui:Link DisplayName="General settings" Source="/Pages/Settings.xaml" />
                <mui:Link DisplayName="About" Source="/Pages/About.xaml" />
            </mui:LinkGroup.Links>
        </mui:LinkGroup>
    </mui:ModernWindow.MenuLinkGroups>

I have tried adding <mui:ModernWindow.MenuLinkGroups> to grid element, however I get The member "MenuLinkGroups" is not recognized or is not accessible error.

Edit:

I have also tried using <mui:ModernFrame> element and adding source with my constant content, after </mui:ModernWindow.MenuLinkGroups> however it doesn't work (it isn't rendered at all).

Any ideas or advices how to get something like footer in ModernUI are highly appreciated.

Many thanks!

You need to modify the ModernWindow style and template. There is a good tutorial here:
