Here's an update.
I inserted a new slide (the 3rd in all, including the title slide) and the
text part of my new footer appeared on it. I then deleted the faulty 2nd
slide, and the new one did not change. This is good, but the GIF I had put in
the left-hand placeholder in the footer remains invisible (except when
editing the slide master).

Probably you need to go to view > header & footers and tick the appropriate
box. However you would do better just putting the gif on the slide master
(not in a placeholder) If necessary delete the date placeholder altogether--
Did that answer the question / help?
