Thanks to my colleague Shibing, here is what I did. I included the following at the top of my first slide above the title page which actually fixed the problem. thanks to everyone for your time and support.

<style>

.footer {
    color: black; background: white;
    position: fixed; top: 90%;
    text-align:left; width:100%;

</style>
