Good evening
I have a website: http://www.corecider.com.au which has a fixed left navbar.
Is it possible to have social icons in this navbar area?. They don’t have to be custom icons like those currently
in the footer. Theme icons would be fine.
I have attached an image to show where I am referring to.
I appreciate your assistance.
Cheers

Hi Christopher
Thanks for your link

I have decided to use the stage website to get this working so that the “live” site is not interrupted.
Stage site is http://www.corecider.com.au/stage

I added the code to the x-child theme – framework -> views ->global- _navbar.php
Is there any thing else I need to do ? As the facebook icon does not appear in the navbar.

I appreciate your assistance.
Cheers

Hi There,

Add the icons as part of your menu instead. You can use the codes below as your navigation label.

<i class="x-icon x-icon-facebook" data-x-icon="&#xf09a;" ></i> Facebook

<i class="x-icon x-icon-youtube" data-x-icon="&#xf167;" ></i> Youtube

<i class="x-icon x-icon-instagram" data-x-icon="&#xf16d;" ></i> Instagram

Hope it helps, Cheers!

Thanks very much Friech .. that works a treat ….

Is there a way to move the menu tabs closer together ….?
On a laptop I am losing the bottom menu tabs and can’t view them to select them
Also …
Is there a way to have the social media menu tabs to open in a new window ??

I appreciate your assistance.
Cheers

Hi there,

Please add following code in Customize -> Custom -> Global CSS :

.x-navbar .desktop .x-nav > li > a {
    padding-top: 2px;
    padding-bottom: 2px;
}

Check the box ‘Link Target’ from ‘Screen options’ panel located on top right. Then check the box ‘Open link in a new tab’ under each menu item.

Hope that helps.
