[Support request] Ad blockers making social icons invisible

[Marcus]

Hi,
I’ve been struggling to figure out how to get any social icons to work (I’m using mine in the top bar widget) in a browser that has an ad blocker running. Is this something that can be fixed in GP? I can’t see them in the WordPress customize environment in my own browser and I’m certain any potential visitor running a browser with an ad blocker on it won’t necessarily know that their browser plug-in is affecting my website. Does anyone have a suggestion for a workaround so that links to my FB, IG, etc. will appear on my site?

Hi there,

haven’t seen this before, generally Ad-blockers look for certain types of scripts so bit suprised its effecting some straightforward links. Maybe try Tom’s Lightweight Social Icons as this hasn’t come up in the past:
