December 13, 2019 at 1:17 pm #1165511Same here! I have 5 icons and only the first icon shows or can be changed with CSS. So I used Chrome to inspect the live website and the “data-av-icon” is not present in the website’s HTML for that last four icons, which is why the CSS styling did not work.
Yes, I cleared my browser cache. In fact I used three different browsers and I also used them in private mode.
Yes, I cleared my WordPress cache plugin and I even toggled the Enfold performance features and cleared the old code CSS and JS.
Yes, I uploaded a new copy of Enfold.
Yes, I deleted and added back the Social icons but no change.
Yes, I tried adding the icons to the Footer but no change.
Yes, I and running the latest version of everything installed to include PHP 7.3.
I am not having issues with any other icons on my website or problems with any other functions on my website.
Everything was working fine until WP 5.3.1.
December 13, 2019 at 1:30 pm #1165518The same error also on my sites, updated to version 5.3.1, you only see the icon of the email.
argggghhhhhhh heeellpppBruno
December 13, 2019 at 2:01 pm #1165528Same here after latest WP update. Please provide a fix asap (as 4.6.4 will probably see the light of days only in 2020…).
Update: It affects Enfold 4.6.3.1, I have two sites running still on 4.5.4, here the problem doesn’t exist. All plugins decativated to test.

December 13, 2019 at 2:30 pm #1165535I have the same issue this morning on 5 different websites, this is an issue with the new wordpress update 5.3.1 and enfold theme, i am not having this issue with avada theme for example
December 13, 2019 at 2:38 pm #1165537I found out that if the social URL is without https the icon is shown but no target blank.
December 13, 2019 at 2:43 pm #1165539Not showing for me either http or https
December 13, 2019 at 2:46 pm #1165540I have the same problem, you only see the icon of the email.
I have solved for now by downgrading to WP 5.3 with the plugin WP Downgrade- This reply was modified 5 years ago by manurimini.
December 13, 2019 at 3:14 pm #1165550Hello,
Same problem here since the WP 5.3.1 update. Affects only Enfold version 4.6.3.1 (as far as I can check this).
I looked at the code of a site running 4.6.3.1 and compared it to a site running an older version.4.6.3.1
a target=”_blank” aria-label=”Link to Facebook” href=’https://***censored***’ aria-hidden=’true’ title=’Facebook’4.5.6
a target=”_blank” aria-label=”Link to Facebook” href=’https://***censored***’ aria-hidden=’true’ data-av_icon=’’ data-av_iconfont=’entypo-fontello’ title=’Facebook’This crucial part is missing in the newest version: data-av_icon=’’ data-av_iconfont=’entypo-fontello’
No clue so far why this happens.- This reply was modified 5 years ago by jvingerhoets.
December 13, 2019 at 6:04 pm #1165591OK, I found the cause and (temporary) solution!
Changes made to the file ‘formatting.php’ in ‘wp-includes’ of the new WP 5.3.1 version are the cause.
I compared this file via diffchecker.com to the previous WP version and saw some differences to the bits concerning how links with ‘target’ and ‘rel’ should be rewritten. On the left is the new version, on the right the old one: https://www.diffchecker.com/6VKr6jb4Look for the changes starting on line 3149. The code in red (on the left) should be replaced with the code in green (on the right). Last line that should be changed is 3222. There are more changes in red starting on line 4903 but don’t touch these or your site will break!
After I made these changes, the social media icons magically reappeared after reloading.
Naturally this should be addressed in the next Enfold update, but for now this fix works (for me).- This reply was modified 5 years ago by jvingerhoets.
December 13, 2019 at 6:38 pm #1165609Same for me, work!
Many ThanksDecember 13, 2019 at 7:02 pm #1165617All icons which are linked to an external url are gone. Internal links are still showing…. strange…
December 13, 2019 at 8:46 pm #1165638This is a major issue. What is the normal ETA on an Enfold update for WordPress compatibility?
Modifying core WordPress files is not an option for various reasons. Not to mention most security plugins will flag this as a hacking attempt.
How about a simple script to add to the functions.php file to temporarily fix the issue until a new Enfold release?

December 14, 2019 at 12:55 am #1165730Social icons not showing!!
December 14, 2019 at 1:04 am #1165732Same here
December 14, 2019 at 1:04 am #1165733Leaving reply so I’m notified of fix.
December 14, 2019 at 1:04 am #1165734Also not working for my site. jvingerhoets his solution may work, but way to technical to me.
Anyone did a roll-back to WP 5.3?
December 14, 2019 at 2:12 am #1165745OK, I created a CSS fix to the problem of missing social media icons and blog post sharing icons! It’s not all of them, but most.
Add the following to your Quick CSS in Enfold Child Theme Options > General Styling
/* enfold social media icons fix */ .social_bookmarks_twitter a::before, .av-social-link-twitter a::before { font-family: 'entypo-fontello'; content: ''; } .social_bookmarks_facebook a::before, .av-social-link-facebook a::before { font-family: 'entypo-fontello'; content: ''; } .social_bookmarks_linkedin a::before, .av-social-link-linkedin a::before { font-family: 'entypo-fontello'; content: ''; } .social_bookmarks_pinterest a::before, .av-social-link-pinterest a::before { font-family: 'entypo-fontello'; content: ''; } .social_bookmarks_tumblr a::before, .av-social-link-tumblr a::before { font-family: 'entypo-fontello'; content: ''; } .social_bookmarks_reddit a::before, .av-social-link-reddit a::before { font-family: 'entypo-fontello'; content: ''; } .social_bookmarks_vk a::before, .av-social-link-vk a::before { font-family: 'entypo-fontello'; content: ''; } .social_bookmarks_gplus a::before, .av-social-link-gplus a::before { font-family: 'entypo-fontello'; content: ''; } .social_bookmarks_mail a::before { font-family: 'entypo-fontello'; content: ''; } .social_bookmarks_dribble a::before { font-family: 'entypo-fontello'; content: ''; } .social_bookmarks_youtube a::before { font-family: 'entypo-fontello'; content: ''; } .social_bookmarks_instagram a::before { font-family: 'entypo-fontello'; content: ''; } .social_bookmarks_vimeo a::before { font-family: 'entypo-fontello'; content: ''; }
