I am using a Buddypress oriented theme in which I integrated Geodirectory. In the child-theme I created, I use a custom footer in the ‘footer.php’ file. Geodirectory does not show a footer on archive and search pages by default. However, I would like to integrate my custom footer on these pages. Is there a specific file I can look for and override by including it in my child-theme?

You are using GDV1?
With GDV2, you would want to first take a look at the archive and search page templates. Try a different page attributes -> page template that loads your footer.
GDV2 uses what is provided by the theme and has no opinion about headers and footers as it only places content into the post_content area.

Ah amazing, your reply made me suddenly realize that the post category archive also does not have a footer.. Hence I found a condition somewhere that states $show_footer = !(is_archive);
