  • You should try asking your question here instead: https://www.ads-software.com/support/theme/olsen-light/.

    I see many people suggesting the display: none; method for “removing” things. Truthfully, this should be a last resort as it isn’t really the best way for removing something you didn’t want to begin with.

    I would probably just disable “sharing” in the theme all together, then look for a sharing plugin that lets you customize it the way you want.

    The caveat being -light part of the theme name? (And what features come with the dash-less version?).

    And when you do use `display:none’, due to a poorly made theme, and a low budget customer, make sure it’s not in the parent theme, but a proper Child Theme, or Custom CSS option.

    @swansonphotos And don’t get me started that “sharing” should be “in a plugin”, not the theme. That’s why I suggested disabling the sharing all together (if possible) and finding a suitable plugin ??

    My comment was about a light version of a theme – which often has features that make customization difficult. There are many ways to get sharing buttons – with a theme, a plugin, or in page templates of a child theme. I prefer the latter.
