    Hello

    I’ve added the url to a facebook page in the theme options / social links, but it’s not appearing. Any idea why not?

    Also, on the description on the homepage, there is no shadow above or below the description. What can I do to get it on there? It might be better without it, so I’m not sure if this is something you can switch on or off easily?

    Hi,

    does anyone know anything about these two issues?

    Thanks

    Sarah

    There appears to be several html elements missing from your page. Did you edit the shortcode on the sample page incorrectly?

    For example, my ‘Home’ page text has these tags around the description:

    [description]Your description goes here.[/description]

    Your facebook link is there, it’s just the image link isn’t displaying the icon correctly.

    Seems like something went wrong with your wordpress or theme install. Hopefully this thread activity will get you some official help.

    Social links must displayed correct, if you don’t modify theme source files.

    Hello, thanks for this all!

    Homepage description
    Knackedgary – I have that shortcode sitting around the description text. I do have a different slider above the description, which is a plug-in, but it was displaying the same way before I added the plugin.

    Social links
    I am using a child theme but haven’t changed the code for any of the social links at all. I’ve compared it to the original and the code is still the same. Do you think maybe the image files aren’t attached to the child theme?

    Have copied the code below.

    Thanks! S

    #colophon .social-icon {
    float:right
    }
    #colophon .social-icon a {
    float:left;
    width:30px;
    height:30px;
    opacity:1;
    background-image:url(images/social.png);
    background-repeat:no-repeat;
    }
    #colophon .social-icon a:hover, #colophon .social-icon a:active {
    opacity:0.9}
    #colophon .social-icon a.facebook {
    background-position:-249px 0;

    If I revert back to the parent theme, the shadow drops into the homepage, and the social links in the footer come up, and the little images on the blog posts comments/author/tags etc (that I didn’t notice were missing), all come back.

    BUT, the amends I made which allowed me to re-order the main menu, and to add a secondary nav to the menu, have all disappeared. I have totally forgotten how I managed to make these changes…

    So, I’ve gone back to the child menu, where the problem seems to be that it is missing the images. Does anyone have any idea how I can add those images to the file theme?

    Thanks in advance.
