Hi there,
We have a site with several languages. As it is we have the languages linked through the navigation, however on mobile this isn’t intuitive.
We’d like to customise the top bar so that where there are currently the social icons, we can put our own English, Japanese and Chinese flag icons linking to the different language sites.
How do I go about customising the top bar to do this?
Thanks in advance!
Hello @freedomdesign,
Thanks for asking. 
I can already see couple of flags on the top bar. I am assuming that you are looking to swap the position of flags and social icons. To do that please add following CSS under X > Launch > Options > CSS:
p.p-info {float: right !important;}
.x-social-global {float: left !important;}
@media only screen and (max-width: 500px) {p.p-info {float: right !important;}
.x-social-global {float: left !important;display: flex !important;}}
Let me know if that’s what you are looking for.
Thanks.
Hi Prasant,
Thanks for the quick reply.
Actually, the flags on the top left link to our other sites, they are quick links for staff more than guests. So I’d like to keep these as is, but where the social links are on the right, have flag icons that link to our other language sites.
Hi there,
Thanks for clarifying.
In this case, you will have to do a bit of customization.
Please add this code in the functions.php file of the child theme:
// Social Output
// =============================================================================
if ( ! function_exists( 'x_social_global' ) ) :
function x_social_global() {
$facebook = x_get_option( 'x_social_facebook' );
$twitter = x_get_option( 'x_social_twitter' );
$google_plus = x_get_option( 'x_social_googleplus' );
$linkedin = x_get_option( 'x_social_linkedin' );
$xing = x_get_option( 'x_social_xing' );
$foursquare = x_get_option( 'x_social_foursquare' );
$youtube = x_get_option( 'x_social_youtube' );
$vimeo = x_get_option( 'x_social_vimeo' );
$instagram = x_get_option( 'x_social_instagram' );
$pinterest = x_get_option( 'x_social_pinterest' );
$dribbble = x_get_option( 'x_social_dribbble' );
$flickr = x_get_option( 'x_social_flickr' );
$github = x_get_option( 'x_social_github' );
$behance = x_get_option( 'x_social_behance' );
$tumblr = x_get_option( 'x_social_tumblr' );
$whatsapp = x_get_option( 'x_social_whatsapp' );
$soundcloud = x_get_option( 'x_social_soundcloud' );
$rss = x_get_option( 'x_social_rss' );
$output = '<div class="x-social-global">';
if ( $facebook ) : $output .= '<a href="' . $facebook . '" class="facebook" title="Facebook" target="_blank"><i class="x-icon-facebook-square" data-x-icon="" aria-hidden="true"></i></a>'; endif;

if ( $flickr ) : $output .= '<a href="' . $flickr . '" class="flickr" title="Flickr" target="_blank"><i class="x-icon-flickr" data-x-icon="" aria-hidden="true"></i></a>'; endif;
if ( $github ) : $output .= '<a href="' . $github . '" class="github" title="GitHub" target="_blank"><i class="x-icon-github-square" data-x-icon="" aria-hidden="true"></i></a>'; endif;
if ( $behance ) : $output .= '<a href="' . $behance . '" class="behance" title="Behance" target="_blank"><i class="x-icon-behance-square" data-x-icon="" aria-hidden="true"></i></a>'; endif;
if ( $tumblr ) : $output .= '<a href="' . $tumblr . '" class="tumblr" title="Tumblr" target="_blank"><i class="x-icon-tumblr-square" data-x-icon="" aria-hidden="true"></i></a>'; endif;
if ( $whatsapp ) : $output .= '<a href="' . $whatsapp . '" class="whatsapp" title="Whatsapp" target="_blank"><i class="x-icon-whatsapp" data-x-icon="" aria-hidden="true"></i></a>'; endif;
if ( $soundcloud ) : $output .= '<a href="' . $soundcloud . '" class="soundcloud" title="SoundCloud" target="_blank"><i class="x-icon-soundcloud" data-x-icon="" aria-hidden="true"></i></a>'; endif;
if ( $rss ) : $output .= '<a href="' . $rss . '" class="rss" title="RSS" target="_blank"><i class="x-icon-rss-square" data-x-icon="" aria-hidden="true"></i></a>'; endif;
$output .= '<a href="#"><img src="LINK_TO_THE_ICON_FILE" /></a>';
$output .= '<a href="#"><img src="LINK_TO_THE_ICON_FILE_2" /></a>';
$output .= '</div>';
echo $output;
}
endif;
Please note the lines:
$output .= '<a href="#"><img src="LINK_TO_THE_ICON_FILE" /></a>';
$output .= '<a href="#"><img src="LINK_TO_THE_ICON_FILE_2" /></a>';
You can edit those lines of code and add the custom image icons and links there.
Hope this helps.
