Default custom text in footer on just one page

I'm trying to put some text in a footer, and have it show up on just one
page, is there a way to do that?

Use nested fields, pressing Ctrl+F9 to insert each pair of field braces:

{ IF {PAGE} = 3 "pg 3 footer text" "all other pg footer text" }

Change the 3 to the page number of the page that you want to be different.
Substitute the desired text for the two phrases I showed in brackets.

And if the page in question is the first page of a section, you can use
"Different first page" in the Page Setup dialog box instead of a conditional
field.
