Extra Social Media Buttons?

Hi,

I will consider to add more social media options in the future updates. At this moment, you will need to create a child theme, upload your custom social media icons and hard-code your custom links into “header.php”. This code in “header.php” generates the default links:

<div class="header-icons">
<?php if ($seasun_options_db['seasun_header_facebook_link'] != ''){ ?>
        <a class="social-icon facebook-icon" href="<?php echo esc_url($seasun_options_db['seasun_header_facebook_link']); ?>" target="_blank"></a>
<?php } ?>
<?php if ($seasun_options_db['seasun_header_twitter_link'] != ''){ ?>
        <a class="social-icon twitter-icon" href="<?php echo esc_url($seasun_options_db['seasun_header_twitter_link']); ?>" target="_blank"></a>
<?php } ?>
<?php if ($seasun_options_db['seasun_header_google_link'] != ''){ ?>
        <a class="social-icon google-icon" href="<?php echo esc_url($seasun_options_db['seasun_header_google_link']); ?>" target="_blank"></a>
<?php } ?>
<?php if ($seasun_options_db['seasun_header_rss_link'] != ''){ ?>
        <a class="social-icon rss-icon" href="<?php echo esc_url($seasun_options_db['seasun_header_rss_link']); ?>" target="_blank"></a>
<?php } ?>
      </div>

You will need to edit it in this way:

<div class="header-icons">
<?php if ($seasun_options_db['seasun_header_facebook_link'] != ''){ ?>
        <a class="social-icon facebook-icon" href="<?php echo esc_url($seasun_options_db['seasun_header_facebook_link']); ?>" target="_blank"></a>
<?php } ?>
<?php if ($seasun_options_db['seasun_header_twitter_link'] != ''){ ?>
        <a class="social-icon twitter-icon" href="<?php echo esc_url($seasun_options_db['seasun_header_twitter_link']); ?>" target="_blank"></a>
<?php } ?>
<?php if ($seasun_options_db['seasun_header_google_link'] != ''){ ?>
        <a class="social-icon google-icon" href="<?php echo esc_url($seasun_options_db['seasun_header_google_link']); ?>" target="_blank"></a>
<?php } ?>
<?php if ($seasun_options_db['seasun_header_rss_link'] != ''){ ?>
        <a class="social-icon rss-icon" href="<?php echo esc_url($seasun_options_db['seasun_header_rss_link']); ?>" target="_blank"></a>
<?php } ?>
        <a style="background-image: url(path-to-your-custom-linkedin-icon);" class="social-icon linedin-icon" href="your-linkedin-link" target="_blank"></a>
      </div>

Thanks Tom. I’ll have a look at adding that to my site.

I have another problem,
If you visit my site ‘https://www.thegoprobible.com.au/’ you’ll see that if you press TUTORIALS it links you to Contact.

I have deleted all pages and remade them directing the permalink to their respected pages but I still seem to be having the same issue.

I am using the ‘SeaSun’ theme,
Cheers.

Hi,

please try to remove the “Tutorials” page from the Main Header Menu and put it again there. If you have changed its permalink, it might break the menu item.

Thanks Tom. Worked perfectly!

Also when do you think you’ll be adding them extra social media icon/tabs? I might consider purchasing the premium theme if it happens very soon ??

Thanks

You are welcome!

The Premium version already supports Instagram link in the header social media bar. The next update will be released probably in the second half of March. It is a major update where the Theme Options will be moved into the Customizer panel.
