Hi

we’ve recently updated the theme and the social icons have now disappeared. They can’t even be found in the options or theme settings…

Have these be taken out?

Also how can I add a search bar to different pages or the header?

Hi @atitagain,

I hope you are well today and thank you for your question.

we’ve recently updated the theme and the social icons have now disappeared. They can’t even be found in the options or theme settings..

Have these be taken out?

In the latest version of theme we have changed functionality of social links.

To create social icons follow the below steps :

  1. Create a menu like any other menu in the admin area of your site under Appearance -> Menus .
  2. Use the correct urls in the menu items, so for twitter it must be twitter.com for facebook it must be facebook.com. Otherwise URLs won’t get recognized and you will get squares without icons.
  3. Set theme location for this menu as “Social Menu”
Also how can I add a search bar to different pages or the header?

To help us keep support thread separates could you please create new thread for your other questions here Unite Theme - Colorlib Support Forum instead of asking them in your single thread as it makes the thread messy and hard to read.

If you want to you can also add reference of this thread in your newly created thread.

We would be more than happy to help you on your new thread.

Best Regards,
Movin
