Please in the next version of the theme allow us to change the background color of EACH and EVERY Icon. Want to make facebook icon blue, pinterest red etc.. Social Icons need to POP with color. They all can’t be the same color.

Thank you so much

Hi mboydnv,

Please try the code below and place it in Theme panel->Custom Css area, like this: http://screencast.com/t/oTNuYm7Gl

.td-footer-wrapper .td-icon-facebook {
background-color: #3b5998;
border-radius:20px;
}
.td-footer-wrapper .td-icon-flickr {
background-color: #ff0084;
border-radius:20px;
}
.td-footer-wrapper .td-icon-googleplus {
background-color: #dd4b39;
border-radius:20px;
}
.td-footer-wrapper .td-icon-instagram {
background-color: #517fa4;
border-radius:20px;
}
.td-footer-wrapper .td-icon-pinterest {
background-color: #cb2027;
border-radius:20px;
}
.td-footer-wrapper .td-icon-twitter {
background-color: #00aced;
border-radius:20px;
}
.td-footer-wrapper .td-icon-youtube {
background-color: #bb0000;
border-radius:20px;
}

The result you should see, here: http://screencast.com/t/PdwkooGQc84
With border-radius condition, your social icons corner will be a circle. You can adjust this value as you wish.

If is not what you mean, please provide more details about this.

Thanks!

Thanks Catalin

Having trouble with the hover now. It’s not hovering the entire circle just the font icon, and ideas please

please have a look at the icons in the footer at (no spaces in domain)

p a r a d i s e f o u n d t o u r s . c o m

was thinking about a hover like this:

social icon hover example

If that’s too hard, maybe just the circle hovers and not the icon? like in the footer of this site below:

Also is it possible to make the social icon font size bigger like the link above?

Thanks so much

color:white;
}
.td-social-icon-wrap i.td-icon-googleplus:hover {
opacity: .5;
color:white;

Hi mboydnv,

If you want to change the icons font size, it is necessary to increase the font-size parameter. Please try the code below and solve the problem. Place it in Theme panel->Custom Css area:

.td-footer-wrapper .td-icon-facebook {
background-color: #3b5998;
border-radius:20px;
font-size: 23px;
}
.td-footer-wrapper .td-icon-flickr {
background-color: #ff0084;
border-radius:20px;
font-size: 23px;
}
.td-footer-wrapper .td-icon-googleplus {
background-color: #dd4b39;
border-radius:20px;
font-size: 23px;
}
.td-footer-wrapper .td-icon-instagram {
background-color: #517fa4;
border-radius:20px;
font-size: 23px;
}
.td-footer-wrapper .td-icon-pinterest {
background-color: #cb2027;
border-radius:20px;
font-size: 23px;
}
.td-footer-wrapper .td-icon-twitter {
background-color: #00aced;
border-radius:20px;
font-size: 23px;
}
.td-footer-wrapper .td-icon-youtube {
background-color: #bb0000;
border-radius:20px;
font-size: 23px;
}
.td-social-icon-wrap i.td-icon-facebook:hover {
opacity: .5;
color:white;
}
.td-social-icon-wrap i.td-icon-flickr:hover {
opacity: .5;
color:white;
}
.td-social-icon-wrap i.td-icon-googleplus:hover {
opacity: .5;
color:white;
}
.td-social-icon-wrap i.td-icon-instagram:hover {
opacity: .5;
color:white;
}
.td-social-icon-wrap i.td-icon-pinterest:hover {
opacity: .5;
color:white;
}
.td-social-icon-wrap i.td-icon-twitter:hover {
opacity: .5;
color:white;
}
.td-social-icon-wrap i.td-icon-youtube:hover {
