Hide social icons on certain post types

[ayham]

Hello support,

I want to hide social icons on some post types that are specific to an LMS I use. What CSS code can I use or function under the functions.php under child theme? I’d appreciate your help.

Currently using PRO renew stack.

thanks!

Hello @ayham,

Thanks for writing in!

To hide the post type icon specific to LMS, you may use this custom css:

.type-{post-type} .entry-title:before {
    display: none;
}

You may need to replace {post-type} with the correct lms post type.

Hope this helps. Please let us know how it goes.

Hi!

I’m sorry I realized my question was not clear enough.

What I want to hide are the social icons (facebook, youtube, etc…), that appear at the bottom of the page for the said LMS posts.

(not the post type icon).

Thanks!

Hello Ayham,

Please try:

.type-{post-type} .x-social-global {
    display: none;
}

If this does not work, kindly provide the URL of the page you are referring to.

Thank you.

Works very nicely!

Thank you very much.

Generally speaking, is it better to do this through CSS or implement it through a function in functions.php?

Thanks.

Hello @ayham,

All the given codes above were CSS and your customization for the icon is not possible with a PHP code in the functions.php file.

Regards.
