      Hi there,

      Just wondering if there is anyway to add social media icons to the footer of a page? I've uploaded images of the icons, but they're way to big and I've tried to resize them with no luck.

      Thanks!

        Humm, maybe you wanna try this plugin and use the shortcode in the gridder with: "+more" -> "+shortcode": https://wordpress.org/plugins/social-icons/

          Hey Armin,

          Many thanks on this wonderful product, I'm enjoying it and heading towards having some of my portfolio work showcased on my domain.

          I'm suffering the same issues with my social media icons/buttons as described above. I've somehow implemented a few, but they're not being being displayed well, seizing issues and other stuff.

          Then I headed towards this tread and installed the plugin you advised. But the shortcode just wont grab, I wont show me the buttons.

          I've also tried it by activating footers, but no luck.
          What am I doing wrong?

          Cheers,

          D :blush:

            Hey Dustin!,

            Maybe just embed the buttons with plain html in the custom footer or header section.

            You can define the size of the images in the Custom CSS.

            This might be interesting as well:

            Let me know!

            Best!

            I don't answer or check forum DMs, please just post on the forum.

            Try this to fix issues before you post:

            Use the Search Feature. Maybe there is already a solution to your issue.

            1. Update Lay Theme and all Lay Theme Addons
            2. Disable all Plugins
            3. Go to Lay Options → Custom CSS & HTML, click "Turn Off All Custom Code ", click "Save Changes"
            4. Now see if your problem solved itself
            5. Go here, see if your problem is listed here:
            Troubleshooting

            When you post:
            1. Post a link to where the problem is
            2. If the problem is difficult to explain, post screenshots / link to a video to explain it

            Thanks!
