Hi,

I am using the Lightweight Social Icons plugin in our Generatepress Theme.

I really like the simplicity of the plugin but it does not have the latest icons like Quora, Medium etc.

How do I go about adding new icons if I still want to use Lightweight Social Icons plugin? Since icons are based on the font, is there a way to update font file and write custom css?

Thanks in advance.

Hi there,

unfortunately there is no way to add the additional icons to that plugin.
In light of the Block Editor we now advise users to work with the GenerateBlocks Buttons Block to create your own social icons.

And you can add your own SVG icons:
