    I want to add a social menu like Anders’s theme Garfunkel.

    I’ve tried and almost succeeded in doing this, but while I have no problem understanding how the html & css works, I have insufficient knowledge of PHP theming to be able to do this successfully.

    So, I’ve noticed that there are many social icon & menu plugins available, but these require either a WP menu or a widget to function.

    So my question is this –?given my skills, which would be easier to implement/more idiotproof — widgetizing the navigation, or adding an additional menu?

  • Hey there nihow,

    Hope you’re well! ??

    I think the menu options is the best for you. I suggest you download the Garfunkel theme and look how the author integrate it. I think he use the “Genericons” for the social icons ??

    Looking forward for your reply! ??

    Take care,

    Thanks Calvin, I tried this already –?almost had it working but not quite. I think I’ll get a developer to add this in for me.
