Email social icon?

    Hey, I really dig this minimalist theme here! Hope you don’t mind if I ask a lot of questions, as I’m not really skilled with WordPress CMS.

    For the social media icon, I was able to get the twitter/youtube/linkedin icons up and running. But I get a star for trying to implement email.

    So I would like to ask what is the proper way to get a social icon for just email (if it exists within the theme)? If it doesn’t exist, can the developer add this somehow in the next update?

    Hello!

    Support for the Email icon in the Social Menu has been added to the development copy of the theme and this enhancement will go out with the next theme update.

    In the meantime, if you’d like to add support for the email icon immediately, you can add the following code to the bottom of the style.css file (I recommend using a Child Theme for modifications):

    #menu-social li a[href*="mailto"]::before {
	content: '\f410';
	color: #BBC7D3;
}

#menu-social li a[href*="mailto"]:hover::before {
	transition: color ease 0.3s;
	color: #4A4A4E;
}

    Hello Raam! I just added this using the Custom CSS feature from my Jetpack, worked flawlessly!

    Just to make sure, is the link supposed to look like this as the final output:

    mailto:[email.address.here]

    Yes, that’s the correct format.
