Upload new Social Icon

Update: Please note that my “how-to” below, will force Enfold to replace the actual Skype icon itself with your custom Github icon. In case you’re looking to add Github to Enfold’s “Social Profiles” settings, then you might need a completely different and more complex approach / function.

In case you’re actually looking to add Github to Enfold’s “Social Profiles” settings, then please see the link in Yigit’s reply.

Hi Slade,

I’m using that function to replace the pencil icon in post archives. If the complete function is in your functions.php already, all you have to do is this:

Replace:

$icons['standard'] = array( 'font' =>'entypo-fontello', 'icon' => 'ue915');

With this:

$icons['skype'] = array( 'font' =>'fontello', 'icon' => 'ue999');

As you can see, standard needs to be replaced with skype. That will tell Enfold that the default Skype icon should be replaced with icon ue999.

Optional: you might notice that entypo-fontello is changed into fontello, as this is the name of my custom icon collection. Since it’s unclear to me how you named your custom icon collection, you might need to use another value than fontello. To find out the correct value/font name to use:

– Simply edit a page using the Advanced Layout Builder.
– Open a Content Element that will show you the list of icons you can use (e.g. the Icon content element has this list).
– You’ll notice that each font collection, in the icon list, has a short line of text above it, stating the collection’s name in a Font: entypo-fontello format.
– Find the ue999 icon in the icon list and see under which font name it is placed. If it’s Font: fontello, then no further action is needed. If it’s Font: anothername then ensure your line looks like this:

$icons['skype'] = array( 'font' =>'anothername', 'icon' => 'ue999');

That should do the trick!

Best,

Ralph

@yigit: No problem :) I’ve updated my answer with a link to your reply. Since it’s a bit unclear whether the Skype icon itself should be replaced by Github (as explained by my “how-to”) or whether Github should be added to Enfold’s “Social Profiles” settings (as explained by the post you link to).
