    Hi
    Is there any way to move the social media icons to another area of the website?
    I would like to move them to the top, preferable in the menu bar itself on the right hand side.
    Thanks

  • Of course.

    Copy the code of the social media buttons from the current location. Delete it.
    Paste the code in the header.php file inside the div called nav-menu

    Hi Rob258

    Thank you for the quick response. I am using a child theme, I know I can make a new header.php file in the child theme and edit that.
    Is there one piece of code to move the whole social media icon bar or is it seperate for each icon? Could you tell me exactly which piece of code needs to be moved and where it is located?
    Sorry for so many questions, I’m learning as I go along.
    My website is maml.org.uk if that helps

    Thank you

    Im testing this out on my other site.
    I took the social media bar code out of footer.php and added it into header.php into the navbar div. The icons are showing on a second line under the menu to the left. I cant figure out how to get them on the same line as the menu and to the right.
    The website is kashf.co.uk
    any ideas?

    I’ve managed to get the icons in the menu bar how I wanted after alot of trial and error but now I have a slight problem when viewing the site on a mobile device.

    The social media icons jump to on to a different line when the menu button is pressed. Anybody know how I can fix this?

    This is the code I used to get it like this

    #socialbar {
    float: right;
    position:relative;
    top:-45px;
    }
    
    #social-icons {
    float: right;
    }
    
    /* puts menu bar back to normal width */
    .col-md-12 {
    max-height: 52px;
    }

    Also I’ve just realised that the last line of code that changed the menu bar width back to normal also gives me a big problem of the text at the bottom and footer move up on the page and clash with the main body. This happens on all the pages except the homepage.

    Anybody know how to fix this?

    Hi Styledthemes
    can you also tell me how I can get the “menu” button to display on the left instead of centre when viewed on mobile. I want the social media icons to stay where they are, just the menu button to move to the left.
    Thank you

    Im still not having any luck stopping the social media icons from jumping up and down on mobile. Can anyone tell me what I’ve done wrong and how to fix it?
