Header: Social icons – Share/Like

  • Hello d4z_c0nf and Team,

    I will greatly appreciate any help to make the social links appear in the header. The idea is that the readers can click on the icon to share the post with their social network – Facebook. Linkedin, Twitter etc.

    Site is: https://newsscouter.com/

    Social links option is checked.

    I have hidden the nave bar applying the: .navbar .nav {display:none;} (in the child theme).

    Even when I remove it, only the RSS icon shows – no social links.

    I would like to show the share/like icons and hide the RSS Feed icon.

    Thank you for any help and advice.

  • Hello Parwaiz,
    thanks for the appreciation, but I’m not the theme developer ??
    It should’ve been “nikeo and Team” ??

    You can set the social links here:
    https://doc.presscustomizr.com/customizr/global-settings/#social-links

    Anyway they will not allow you to share the content of the page, for example what it would share in a category?
    To share posts/pages contents you should use some social sharing plugin.

    Hope this helps.

    d4z_conf,
    Thank you for responding to my plea. I know you aren’t the theme developer. But, you are one of the most knowledgeable ‘helping hand’ on this forum.

    anyhow, I am looking for a way to put the icons/links for the social networks (Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter, etc) in the header area for my visitors/readers to click on to connect to their respective SNs where they can post about my site.

    My site, The News Scouter (https://newsscouter.com/) is a news aggregator – it only has links posted in a single post. there is no content beside the links.

    Many of the visitors are asking for the “share” links – they would like to inform their social network about the News Scouter.

    [Here is one email from one of our readers that I am copying for you – “I managed to locate your website but can’t subscribe, like, or share on FB. Please advise.]

    Hope you got the idea.

    Settings in the ‘admin’ only allows to put my own profile links – that is not what I need.

    I would like the links/icon that will take the visitors/readers back to their own page where they can post about us.

    Also, I would like not to show the RSS link.

    I will greatly appreciate if you can guide me here.

    Thank you.

    Parwaiz.
