Hi guys,

on my website https://nina-gilzem.de/ the icons for social icons menu - Facebook, Instagram, Pintereset - appear as shown in the screenshot:

This appearance happens since the last update of wordpress to version 5.8.2. The tipps in other topics do not work for me.

Thanks for your help,
Daniel

Hi

I just need admin details of your website to check the problem, send them in direct message here

Hi, I really need to know, what information do you need to know. I already sent you a dm. :slight_smile:

Hi @danielgraesel

This is the only message I have from you:

by mentioning ‘admin details’ do you mean admin username and password?

I already replied on that message :slight_smile:

As I wrote I do not know what admin detauls mean :pensive:

Its admin name and password of your website, send them to me in a direct message and I will check your problem :slight_smile:

I am having the same issue - the site is live - https://www.tnslabs.org.

Please advise on how to fix - if needed I can set someone up as a temp WP admin user.

This is the screen shot showing the rhs of the footer - with the icons shown in the customizer view. The page is published, with five icons added to the “social” menu view.

Hi Dave

Try this css code in the Appearance > Customize > Additionall css:

#social .social_icon span {
display: block;
}

15

Same issue and if I add the additional css I get the text and not the icon

Solved, the problem is about the “brands” icon, so It needs to update the font-family in ‘Font Awesome 5 Brands’
example
.social-icons .fa {
font-family: ‘Font Awesome 5 Brands’;
}

Sorry, is the solution to use both css additions from this thread? Like you, the first made the text appear but not the icon. But adding your second one is not doing anything for me. Thanks for any help.
