Social Media Icons in Copyright

Not sure if this answers your Q but you’ve got the option to set up to 4 widgets in the footer above the field named “Footer Bottom”

Both are accessed via the Usual WordPress dashboard …

They’re named Footer Widgets & Footer Bottom.

re the copyright text, OceanWP has certain preset fields that will fill for you and you can copy what’s in the default wording in Footer Bottom & use it anywhere (in their FAQ/documentation they list 10 or so IIRC)

? [oceanwp_date] will give you “? 2019” and change each year.

In Widgets there’s an option to add social media icons and you can pick they’re location, which includes any of the 4 footer widget slots.

Once you’ve dropped that into the widget location and opened the box up you’ll find a ton of ways to adjust size, html link, colour etc.

HTH

Thanks for the reply! What I’m trying to achieve is having the social media icons in the “Footer Bottom” section. In the same section where the copyright is.

I wanted to keep the copyright in the left section, and social media icons on the right in the footer bottom. I guess I will try some HTML.

Ah gotcha, see what you mean.

As the footer widgets can be 1 – 4 panels, couldn’t you put the SM icons in one of those, simply because it’d be quicker than HTML’ing it? But I appreciate it might not ‘fit’ with the look you want.

But, yes, if you drop the HTML into the copyright box that’s in Customising > Footer > Bottom that should do the trick.

Hello,

It’s a little bit tricky. Go to Dashboard > Appearance > Menus – create a menu and assign it to footer location.
Add custom links in the menu and use Icon instead of the text. Add your social media URL in the menu link. Follow the documentation to add the icon in the menu – https://docs.oceanwp.org/article/440-how-to-add-an-icon-to-a-menu-item

You also need to add some CSS css to make it as per your need.
