• I would like to use this fantastic widget in more than one area on the same page – say with custom small icons in a header widget area an with custom large icons in the footer widget area.

    There seems to be a conflict if I add a second instance of the plugin with a different icon size.

    The file path on the second instance is always
    https://www.domain.com/wp-content/plugins/social-media-icons-widget/icons/custom_large/_unknown.jpg

    Two instances in different widget areas with the same icon size work without problems.

    Any idea if this is possible?

    Thanks!

    I will take a look and see what the deal is. Each widget should be able to run separately from others.

    Did it matter if you were selecting custom sizes vs. the built in ones?

    Thanks for your reply!

    I tested several things.

    The following setups work:
    a) header widget area and footer widget area: two different built-in sizes
    b) header widget area = custom icon size and footer widget area = built-in icon size

    This does not work on my site:
    c) header widget area and footer widget area: two different custom sizes (no matter which I choose).

    I now tried using a standard theme (Twentyfourteen) – and it worked!

    So the problem certainly must be with my theme.
    I’m using the Undersores blank theme (“_s”) by Automattic with not much customization so far (apart from some CSS).

    So maybe I just put my custom icons in the plugin’s image directory and try to remember at the next update…

    Thanks a lot for your time!
    And for a great plugin ??
