Adding Social Networks

    This was asked before, but no response was given.
    I’d like to add additional social network links. Specifically, pinterest, and instagram.

    I edited the social-links.php and modified the code to add the networks, but it’s not changing in the admin for some reason. I’m no php expert, so I can’t diagnose the problem.

    <?php if(isset($apollo_social_options["pinterest"]) && $apollo_social_options["twitter"] !== ""): ?>
        	<li><a href="<?php echo esc_url($apollo_social_options["twitter"]); ?>" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/pinterest.png" alt="" /></a></li>
        <?php endif; ?>
		<?php if(isset($apollo_social_options["instagram"]) && $apollo_social_options["twitter"] !== ""): ?>
        	<li><a href="<?php echo esc_url($apollo_social_options["twitter"]); ?>" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/instagram.png" alt="" /></a></li>
        <?php endif; ?>

    I just found the social link settings in settings.php and copied and modified the code to include pinterest and instagram:

    add_settings_field(
			'pinterest',
			'Pinterest', array(&$this, 'apollo_input'),
			'apollo_social_options',
			'apollo_general_settings', array('pinterest', 'text', '', '')
		);

    Now they show up in the admin area, but when you insert a link, the icons don’t show, and I uploaded the required icons.

    Help?

    Ok, I figured it out. I was almost there. I forgot to switch the “twitter” after the apollo_social_options in each entry.
    So it should look like this:

    <?php if(isset($apollo_social_options["pinterest"]) && $apollo_social_options["pinterest"] !== ""): ?>
        	<li><a href="<?php echo esc_url($apollo_social_options["pinterest"]); ?>" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/pinterest.png" alt="" /></a></li>
        <?php endif; ?>
		<?php if(isset($apollo_social_options["instagram"]) && $apollo_social_options["instagram"] !== ""): ?>
        	<li><a href="<?php echo esc_url($apollo_social_options["instagram"]); ?>" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/instagram.png" alt="" /></a></li>
        <?php endif; ?>

    Now, the options show up in the admin, and properly on the page.

    Nice, just remember to save your code somewhere because it’ll be overwritten with an update.
