    Hi guys,

    I need to update social icons in the menu header, how can I do it? For example I would like to show some icons that are present in fontello/ font awesome by dave gandy: http://fontello.com/

    I’d like to replace the google+ icon in the enfold header with a google+ icon in awesome font. Is it possible?

    Thanks for your help!

    Hi Sarah, thank you.

    Until now, there are no problems: I can load the icons that interest me and I’ll see them in the builder. But if I wanted to update the social icons in the header and footer, how can I do it? I load an example in the attached photo.

    Example

    Great! Glad to know you were able to import the icons you want. :)

    To use it in Social Profiles, the second link I gave you has the steps. Here it is again: http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/custom-social-icons/

    It says there that you’ll need the icon code. Youcan find this when you’re in the builder. Hover your mouse over the icon you want. For example:
    http://i.imgur.com/8wLH1t6.jpg

    After following the instructions, you should be able to see the icon as one of the choices in Social Profiles. You can then replace your current Google+ icon with the one that you want.

    I hope that was clear and helpful. Please let us know if you need further assistance.

    Best regards,
    Sarah

    Thank you Sarah, works well now!
    Only one last thing: I cannot change the hover background and text color.
    I follow the instructions and insert this css in css panel:

    #top #wrap_all .av-social-link-ICON_NAME:hover a{
    color:#fff;
    background-color:#9fae37;
    }

    I replace ICON_NAME with the name with which I renamed it, but nothing happens. Where am I wrong?

    Hi oiser,

    Please use this code instead:

    #top #wrap_all .av-social-link-Google\+:hover a{
  color:#fff;
  background-color:#9fae37;
}

    For your reference, the plus sign has a special function in CSS. So we have to tell the browser that the plus sign is part of the class name, and we do it by using a backslash. https://mothereff.in/css-escapes#0frme_150+1
