How to rearrange order of social icons

Posted in: Newspaper

Hello,

I am using the Newspaper theme and have social network icons appearing in my top bar in the header as well as in the footer. I was wondering if there was a way to rearrange the order of how they appear. The default is to just display them alphabetically but I would like to have them display in a custom order. Is this possible?

Hello,

In order to cahnge the order of the social icons you will have to change the order in this array: http://screencast.com/t/hHMZne9nOLnF
After you do so, please access your theme panel in the social networks section and hit the save button: http://screencast.com/t/hEGNlLNiPBnJ

Thank you!

That’s easy enough, but during the next theme update — bam! All of this reverts to the original. Is there a way to do this with a child theme, or does this still apply?

With time we plan to add support for files located in the core framework of the theme (the /wp_booster/ folder).

Hello,

Sorry but that file will not work from the child theme for the moment. You will have to make the modification in the main theme.

Thank you!

I rearranged the icons in the file but the site went down. Both front and back side. When I upload the original file everything is normal again. Why do you think?

It seems you did not change the order properly. You might have missed an element of the syntax. Be mindful of the commas at the end of each element. The last one has no comma usually.
Thanks.
