Social Media Menu

Find header.php file and add the div of social button at the below of menu div structure. It may help you. Please try once and if not work, let me know. I will try my best to help you.
Thanks

@wen Solutions,

I just gave this a try:

Added before:
</div><!– .site-header-top –>

This is where I believe it SHOULD be located, however, this only moves the social menu slightly to the right of it’s current location

Added before:
</div><!– .site-branding-inner –>
This just moves the social menu under the primary menu on a second line.

Thank you for your suggestions. Any thoughts?

Hello

Pleased to hear bout your trying. If you feel comfort with CSS code please try by adding the below CSS code. It may help you to solve your problem.

.site-header .social-navigation {
    margin: -32px !important;
}

Note: Child theme is recommended to customize theme.
Thanks

WEN,

I have added the css code and this has brought the social menu to the desired location. However, the alignment is slightly off and runs off the page to the right a bit. Do you happen to have margin coordinates that could Mirror the ‘Primary Menu’ margins?

And thank you so much for helping me find this solution.

Hello, add the below CSS property on the above given code.

margin-right: -13px;

Thanks

WEN,

I completed your addition, which pushed the menu bar down a bit. However, I removed the ‘right’ command and that seemed to do the trick. This now shows as:

.site-header .social-navigation {
margin: -32px -13px;
}

Thank you for all your help. I hope you have a great week!

I forgot to mark as resolved.

WEN Solutions – thanks for helping out!

LHFashion – please keep in mind that unless you make a child theme as WEN Solutions suggested above, you’re going to lose all tweaks made directly in the theme every time you update Afterlight to the latest version.

Using a child theme means your tweaks won’t be overwritten when updating the theme so I’d recommend moving your tweaks there as soon as you can. Here are some guides in case you haven’t made one before:

You’ve also got some overlapping/unclosed elements so you might want to revisit the HTML changes you made.

@kathryn,

Thank you for your comments.

I can not seem to properly pull all of the .css stylesheets properly.

I currently have:
<?php

function theme_enqueue_styles() {

$parent_style = ‘afterlight-style’;

wp_enqueue_style( $parent_style,
get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’ );
get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/editor-style.css’ );
get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/rtl.css’ );

wp_enqueue_style( ‘child-style’,
get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’,
get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/editor-style.css’,
get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/rtl.css’,
array( $parent_style )
);
}
add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘theme_enqueue_styles’ );

Do you happen to have a guide for including a parent theme with multiple .css files? I have searched online and could not find anything that i was able to successfully apply to my function.php file.

I will comment that I am still learning about this subject and have obviously not perfected the craft so please bear with me.

Thank you.

In case anyone else comes across this, I ended up using the following plugin to complete the creation of my child theme:

Child Theme Configurator

Do you happen to have a guide for including a parent theme with multiple .css files

You shouldn’t normally need to enqueue multiple stylesheets (such as the editor stylesheet) in your child theme as long as the parent is enqueuing them all correctly. The only stylesheet that needs to be enqueued in the child is the parent’s style.css – the rest should get pulled in automatically.

Glad you got this sorted with the child theme plugin.
