Hi @ncalex,
I think I found another issue.
In Author Socials block, when when Social network name setting defined as Show, the name shown next to the icon is the name of code of an icon and is written in lowercase, instead of the actual name.
– When “Mail” field is set in wp-admin/profile.php, the name of the social network is shown as “mail-1”, as per span tdb-social-text.

How to change “mail-1” to “Email” to be shown in front end?
Thank you.
Hi @bettina,
No, does not look like you are right. In 12.6.2 hover tulip still says “mail-1″, because of title=”mail-1”. Plus, it is still written in lowercase. Neither it is possible to change “mail” to “Email” as asked.
– I’m sorry to say, but from what I see on quite a few threads on this forum, your answers are “quick”, but quite often incorrect, with very low attention to detail. It forces asking, and re-asking the same question again and again.
Furthermore, the questions was specifically addressed to @ncalex.
You can of course do what you want with your theme. I am just a user, who to date have found dozens of bugs and issues that likely helped to improve your theme and sell?
@ncalex, can you please check the reported issue.
Thank you.
Hello Alex,
I think that I understand what you want to tell us. I made some tests and I manage to cache the situation. It looks that the icon is set in i element and this has set a title (mail-1) that is displayed when the hover is used on the element -https://i.imgur.com/hQoZjRh.png I think that instead of setting the parameter related to the name of the social element in the title section, the one for the icon was mistakenly. This problem has been solved on dev and will be introduced in the next update, until then if you want we can implement the manual fix if it is necessary now.
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi Calin,
Yes. Good you were able to replicate it.
1. From what I figured it is this for the Hover:
In file: td-cloud-library/shortcodes/author/tdb_author_socials.php the bold part below needs to be changed.
target=”_blank” title=”‘ . $author_socials_data[‘social_id’] . ‘“
2. For making it from “mail” to “Email” (bold below)
$buffy .= ‘<span class=”tdb-social-text”>’ . ( $author_socials_data[‘social_id’] == ‘mail-1’ ? ‘Email‘ : $author_socials_data[‘social_id’] )
But these two things can only be changed by editing file. Unless you will make it available as a setting of the block to be changed in TD composer?
Hi,
In Version 12.6.3 (Release date: December 14h, 2023):
1. The only thing that has been fixed is ‘mail-1’ is now shown as ‘mail’, while hover is capitalised and is written ‘Mail’ – looks odd.
2. The names are still written in lowercase – asked twice in this thread.
3. Still no way to change ‘mail’ to ‘Email’ – asked three times in this thread.
Your very first answer about all of this was – it has been resolved. It is clearly still not resolved.
Super misleading and waste of time.
Great attention to detail!
Thank you.
