    Hello,

    I have found 2 other topics that had the same question, but unfortunately there was no answer there how to change it myself.
    I want to change the social media icons with normal links to my social media accounts instead of share buttons.

    Never mind, I have already fixed it myself.
    Is it possible to add an Instagram button too?

    Also, I have installed WPML and its all working fine. Except the language switcher in the left top header, is showing vertical instead of horizontal.
    I have set the settings in WPML to horizontal, but it doesnt work. How can I fix this?

    Hello,

    You need edit the file wp-content/themes/royal/framework/shortcodes.php (find the section “! Share This Product”) and add this code after line 2010:

    if($instagram == 1) {
    $html .= '
    <li>
    <a href="http://url_to_your_Instagram_page" class="'.$tooltip_class.'" title="'.__('Instagram', ET_DOMAIN).'" target="_blank">
    <i class="ico-instagram"></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>
    ';
    }

    and
    'instagram' => 1 after line 1927

    As I see now you have dropdown menu for language switcher.

    Do you still need assistance?

    I have selected: List of languages (Horizontal) for the language switcher, not the dropdown menu.

The media icons are showin goccreclt on hoem page in the footer but on all other pages they appear twice??? Once in footer 1 area and once in footer omg area. HELP driving me mental.

    Hi Eva. I want the social media icons to view fine in the footer bar but not to duplicate themselves in Footer 1 space on all pages apart from home page. Why is it doing this?

    Hello @Scuzzy76,

    You’ve added a widget to “Footer 1” area in Appearance > Widgets. Remove it.
    The widget isn’t shown on home page because you selected custom footer for it in the page editor http://storage1.static.itmages.com/i/15/1022/h_1445506369_5986341_7a9cfe3e9c.png .

    Hello @Scuzzy76,

    You should create custom sidebar https://www.8theme.com/demo/docs/royal/#!/8_widgets_custom_widget_areas and add your widget into there, not to the Footer 1 area. Then add a new sidebar to Widgetised Sidebar element in your static block.

    Will that allow social media icons to view in footer? I don’t want them viewing in the side bar. Ideally there should be an option in the Theme header optison that has social media icons build in. 🙂

    Hello @Scuzzy76,

    Please create custom sidebar in Appearance > Widgets and add it to Widgetised Sidebar element in Static Block. It won’t be shown in sidebar, because you only create custom area for widgets.
