Footer Icons not Displaying

Hi guys,

Great new look on the forum! I am trying to figure out why 2 of our social icons arent showing up on the footer.

I should the custom IMBD picture but the Soundcloud and Vimeo won’t display.

Hello @LucyKeile,

Thanks for writing in!

The icons is not showing because you are using a legacy x_social_global() php code you have added in your child theme. Please have your code updated and use this along with your modifications adding the IMDB icon.

We would love to know if this has worked for you. Thank you.

I just pasted this code on my CSS and there is no change.

Hello @LucyKeile,

Thanks for updating in! Regretfully the changes cannot be saved in the theme editor. It could be because of File Permission.

With the latest changes in the theme, you do not need to insert the full social icon function x_social_global() function. Just simply use the code below to add the Trip Advisor icon, please use this code instead:

// Custom Trip Advisor Icons
// =============================================================================
function add_trip_advisor_link($socials) {
	$socials .= '<a href="http://www.imdb.com/company/co0458509/" class="imdb" title="IMDb" target="_blank"><img src="http://stradfilms.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/imdb.png"></a>';
	
	return $socials;
}
add_filter('x_social_global_after', 'add_trip_advisor_link');
// =============================================================================

Best Regards.
