How do I put social media icons on the left side of primary navigation bar?
Currently, I have my menu items on the right.
I want to enter this shortcode: [DISPLAY_ULTIMATE_SOCIAL_ICONS].
Hi there,
Hard to say exactly without knowing what you want it to look like.
However, you can try:
1. Create a Hook Element: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/hooks-element-overview/
2. Set the hook to generate_inside_navigation
3. Add this as your hook content:
<div class="ultimate-social-icons">
[DISPLAY_ULTIMATE_SOCIAL_ICONS]
</div>
4. Set your Display Rules.
Then you can add this CSS:
.ultimate-social-icons {
float: left;
}
Let me know :)
It is displaying the actual shortcode, rather than the social media buttons. How do I get it to show the actual social media buttons?
Ah sorry, make sure the "Execute Shortcodes" checkbox is checked.
Additional CSS is the perfect spot for that CSS :)
Good job Tom! You did it! Thank you so much!
You're welcome :)
As an extention to the previous question: I moved the icons to a secondary navigation bar under my header image. How do I do the following center the social media icons? This CSS didn't work:
.ultimate-social-icons {
float: center;
}
I'm not seeing them on your site - are they still added?
Let me know :)
I've re-added one social media icon for now. FB. How do I center it?
Hi there,
i can't see the icon on the site? If you have added it can you clear any plugin/server caches?
Sorry, it's there now! Please re-check.
Try this CSS:
.sfsi_widget {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
}
.sfsi_widget .norm_row {
width: auto !important;
}
Resolved! Thank you!
Awesome. Glad to be of help.
