    Hey,

    I’ve got a client that wants to have social media icons in the menu.

    I’m against this but they want it so just wondering. Is there a way to have icon only on the nav bar – or add social profiles please ?

    Hi there,

    You can add social icons as menu items (<i class=”x-icon x-icon-facebook”></i>) using custom links (http://screencast.com/t/1nX4ULu8r) and add further customizations.

    You can find the icon codes from here (http://theme.co/x/demo/renew/1/shortcodes/icons/).

    Hope that helps.

    This doesn’t seem to work. I only get a blank space where the icon is suppose to be.

    I am having the same issues when it comes to the nav menu bar. I input the code as described, but only get a blank space. Is the icon black? My menu is black and obviously that would hide the icon.

    Hi There,

    On X version 4, the above code wouldn’t work without a little tweak. On X v4 you need to add the data-x-icon attribute with the icon’s unicode:

    <i class="x-icon-home" data-x-icon=""></i>

    Which explains in more details here.

    Hope it helps, Cheers!

    Neither of those codes are working for me. I’m still getting a blank space where the icon should be.

    Hi @,

    After added the code above to the navigation label, it’s working fine on the main menu:

    Could you please take a look at website?

    Regards!

    Yes, it’s working now, but that’s exactly what I did. Very strange. Thanks for your help!

    One other thing, is there a way to make that icon bigger?

    Here’s a stranger one. When I went back to look at what you did, the navigation label is blank. Whatever code you put in there is working, but at the same time it has disappeared:
