Adding different social media options

Hi,
I am trying to add Yelp to the list in the footer. I looked for and found several workarounds (see links below) for adding icons and links to the social media choices X has but none have worked for me so far.
Does anyone have any other suggestions?

https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/add-other-social-media-icons-x-theme-pro/13500/5 (no change)
https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/adding-trip-advisor-social/25659 (funky icon, have a look: https://pwihost.com/staging/sdfridge/)

Hi Blair,

Please remove the js script you have added then add the code below in your child theme’s functions.php file.

Hope this helps

Didn’t work. The content on the page was “mostly” missing the footer was reduced to just the menu, and the page turned out to be extremely long. (See image: https://www.dropbox.com/s/gru8wyb1g1q1cgk/screenshot-pwihost.com-2019.05.06-10-29-44.png?dl=0)

Hey Blair,

Please replace the previously given code with the following:

if ( ! function_exists( 'x_social_global' ) ) :
  function x_social_global() {

    $facebook    = x_get_option( 'x_social_facebook' );
    $twitter     = x_get_option( 'x_social_twitter' );

    $youtube     = x_get_option( 'x_social_youtube' );

    $output .= '</div>';

    echo $output;

  }
endif;

In the above code change the URL "https://yelp.com to the actual one. Let us know how this goes!

Looks like that took care of it.
Thank you very much for your help,
