    Hi there,

    Firstly, I love this theme.

    My problem is that when I scroll down the page I was expecting to see the social network icons appear at the top of the page next to the Search icon but only the RSS one displays. Am I doing something wrong?

    It’s no biggy but it would be nice if they appeared like in the demo.

    Cheers
    Paddy

    Hi! Go to WordPress Admin Panel > Appearance > Theme Options, click on the “Social” tab and fill in those fields.

    You should know that the top menu has buttons only for rss, g+, fb and twitter.

    Thanks for the prompt reply.

    Unfortunately I don’t have a Theme Options item under Appearance. I do have it under the ACOSIM menu at the top of the Admin page but when I click on it I receive an insufficient permissions erorr. I’m the only user and administrator of the site so don’t really understand this.

    There should be a Theme Options link in the Appearance tab. If it isn’t please download the theme again, from here and reupload it.

    Thanks for your support.

    I’ve re-downloaded the theme but unfortunately, I’m still no further forward.

    The only items I have under Appearance are Themes, Customize, Widgets, Menus, Edit CSS and Editor.

    Not to worry, as I said it’s no big deal, just a “nice to have”.

    Cheers.

    You can also open header.php and find the following lines:

    <ul class="header-social-icons clearfix">
    			<?php
    				// Social variables - Options Panel
    				$header_fb 	= of_get_option( 'ac_facebook_url' );
    				$header_tw 	= of_get_option( 'ac_twitter_username' );
    				$header_gp 	= of_get_option( 'ac_gplus_url' );
    				$header_rss = of_get_option( 'ac_custom_rss_url' );
    
    			?>
    			<?php if ( $header_tw != '' ) { ?><li><a href="https://twitter.com/<?php echo esc_html( $header_tw ); ?>" class="social-btn left twitter"><?php ac_icon('twitter'); ?></a></li><?php } ?>
    			<?php if ( $header_fb != '' ) { ?><li><a href="<?php echo esc_url( $header_fb ); ?>" class="social-btn right facebook"><?php ac_icon('facebook'); ?></a></li><?php } ?>
    			<?php if ( $header_gp != '' ) { ?><li><a href="<?php echo esc_url( $header_gp ); ?>" class="social-btn left google-plus"><?php ac_icon('google-plus'); ?></a></li><?php } ?>
    			<li><a href="<?php if( $header_rss != '' ) { echo esc_url( $header_rss ); } else { bloginfo( 'rss2_url' ); } ?>" class="social-btn right rss"><?php ac_icon('rss'); ?></a></li>
            </ul><!-- END .header-social-icons -->

    and change them with:

    <ul class="header-social-icons clearfix">
    			<?php
    				// Social variables - Options Panel
    				$header_rss = of_get_option( 'ac_custom_rss_url' );
    
    			?>
    			<li><a href="https://yourtwitterurl" class="social-btn left twitter"><?php ac_icon('twitter'); ?></a></li>
    			<li><a href="https://yourfacebookurl" class="social-btn right facebook"><?php ac_icon('facebook'); ?></a></li>
    			<li><a href="https://yourgoogleplusurl" class="social-btn left google-plus"><?php ac_icon('google-plus'); ?></a></li>
    			<li><a href="<?php if( $header_rss != '' ) { echo esc_url( $header_rss ); } else { bloginfo( 'rss2_url' ); } ?>" class="social-btn right rss"><?php ac_icon('rss'); ?></a></li>
            </ul><!-- END .header-social-icons -->

    Also change https://yourtwitterurl, https://yourfacebookurl, https://yourgoogleplusurl with your profiles urls.
