Hi Guys,

how can i change the icon images and the links of the social icon section [share] ?

I need to add an instgram icon for example. And of course i need my custom links to the facebook page etc. I found no possibility to change that in the theme options.

Thanks for your help

Hi,

thank you for your response.

But i need further informations please. The theme is great and easy to edit, but the social icon section is the only thing which is very hard to customize for me.

I would like to have a Youtube Icon with a custom link. Could you please provide the line of code for that?

Thanks a lot

Hello @Benny,

Try to add this code in shortcodes.php file in section ” ! Share This Product”:
```
if($youtube == 1) {
$html .= '
<li>
<a href="http://your_youtube_link" class="'.$tooltip_class.'" title="'.__('YouTube', ET_DOMAIN).'" target="_blank">
<i class="ico-youtube"></i>
<svg width="38" height="38" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="circle">
<circle cx="19" cy="19" r="18" fill="rgba(255,255,255,0)" stroke="#000000"></circle>
</svg>
</a>
</li>
';
}
```

Hello Eva,

thank you for your help.

The problem seems to be that there is no youtube icon on which i can refer.

The icon appears just as an empty whire circle. How can i put a youtube icon in this line:
<i class=”ico-youtube”></i>

Thanks a lot

Hello @Benny,

Sorry for a delay.
I’ve added this code in Theme Options > Custom CSS > Global Custom CSS:
```
.menu-social-icons .ico-youtube:before {
  content: "\f167";
  font-family: FontAwesome;
}
.menu-social-icons .ico-youtube {
    display: block;
    width: 28px;
    height: 28px;
}
```
Please check youtube icon now.

Best regards,

Eva, you don’t know how thankful I am that you were able to fix the shortcode.php, i figured it wouldn’t be too tricky but still, a white page was slightly scary 😉
Facebook link is perfect. If I want to add more links, do I need to ask you to do it?

Thanks a million!!

Hello @kaha,

You’re welcome.
You can ask us to change links or you can do this yourself.
For example to change link for Twitter you need edit the code <a href="https://twitter.com/share?url='.$permalink.'&text='.$post_title.'" class="'.$tooltip_class.'" title="'.__('Twitter', ETHEME_DOMAIN).'" target="_blank"> and replace https://twitter.com/share?url='.$permalink.'&text='.$post_title.' with a link to your Twitter account.

Hello Jack,

thank you very much for your help. The Youtube Icon is working now. Thats great 🙂

I have one more problem unsolved, even if its not related to this topic:

In Theme options > Typography I changed every color to black, so the main font, body font, menu font and page headings are in black (#222222)

The problem now is, that on a mobile device, the menu has a black background and the font is also black, so you cant see the menu on a mobile device. When i change the main font to white now, you can see the menu on a mobile, but you cant see the text in the shops “add to cart” button.

How can i solve this? I think the best way would be to change the mobile menu background to white, but i have no idea how.

Please help, thanks

Hello @Benny,

To change background color for mobile menu use this code in custom css:
```
.st-menu, .mobile-nav-heading.close-mobile-nav {
  background-color: white !important;
}
```

Hello Eva,

unfortunately i thought too soon that all problems are solved now.

The mobile menu is fine now through your code, but now i´ve got the problem that the buttons on the single product view are black in black now as you can see here for example (http://quallenaquarium.net/shop/osmoseanlage-aquatic-nature/)

The problem is that every change in colors that i do causes other problems, so this maybe is caused because of the line of code you gave me.

How can i change the button background color to white without changing anything else?

Thanks in advance

Hello Guys,

unfortunately i discovered some additional problems.

Also the “Continue Shopping” Button (Button after you put a product to cart, named “Weiter einkaufen” )and the Continue Button on the cart page (http://quallenaquarium.net/warenkorb/) are black in black as well.

Your post before fixed a similar problem. Please provide the code for the two buttons i need to change.

Thank you
