It sounds as if group footers might be disabled on your site.
Does a GroupFooter show up correctly in a different group?

There are several things you might try:

If you have $EnableDiag = 1; set in local/config.php, add 
?action=diag to an address in your browser's address bar, 
then do "Edit > Find" for the string "GroupHeaderFmt". 
You should see something like this:

    [GroupHeaderFmt] => (:include {$Group}.GroupHeader self=0:)(:nl:)
    [GroupFooterFmt] => (:nl:)(:include {$Group}.GroupFooter self=0:)

If you see instead

    [GroupHeaderFmt] => 
    [GroupFooterFmt] => 

then page headers and footers have been disabled.

Look for "[groupfooter]" as well. This should read:

[groupfooter] => Array
        (
            [cmd] => >nogroupfooter
            [seq] => B>=>>>
            [pat] => /\(:groupfooter:\)/ei
            [rep] => PRR(FmtPageName($GLOBALS['GroupFooterFmt'],$pagename))
        )

If instead 
    [rep] => 
then the markup rule has been changed.

Ways group footers can be disabled include:

- GroupHeader includes (:nogroupfooter:)

- local/config.php contains $GroupFooterFmt = '';

- if it's a wiki farm, local/farmconfig.php sets $GroupFooterFmt = '';

- a template includes a directive that specifies (:nogroupfooter:)

- the Markup rule that evaluates '(:groupfooter:)' has been changed

- GroupFooter has a different read password (not sure about this one)

If all else fails, start with a clean install of PmWiki, using the 
default PmWiki skin and no local customisations, then create a 
Main.GroupFooter page and make sure you can see it on Main.Homepage. 
Then add any customisations one by one until the footer disappears.

I hope this helps. Not being able to see the wiki makes it hard
to work out what might be going on.
