Social Media Share Icons cutting off

Posted in: Newspaper

On some of my posts, the social media share icons get cut off, on both PC and mobile.

I find it very strange. If there is only 2 icons, then it is fine. However, once I have 3 or more, every icon after the first two looks like it is cut in half.

I imagine it has something to do with the td_block shortcode I am inserting into the page, because it is after I do this that the problem appears.

It is after I insert this into my post that the social icon problem appears:
[vc_row][vc_column][td_block_7 category_id="88" m6f_meta_font_size="0" limit="12" m6f_title_font_size="18"][/vc_column][/vc_row]

For an example, see here:

Thanks for the great theme.

P.S. As a bonus question, I’m curious if there is a way to put the social share icons in the smart sidebar, as many popular websites tend to do. I have tried to find the right block in the widgets menu, but haven’t found anything quite like that yet.

Hello,

We do not recommend adding shorcodes manually into the post. The latest version allows you to create a custom post template using the new cloud library plugin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BC-gCCy80Gw
As for the sidebar, you can add a social counter widget, but not the standard share buttons in the sidebar.

Thank you!

Sorry for the confusion, but where can I set a new or old post to use the new custom post template from the cloud template that I made? All I see in the post section and theme panel are the preset templates.

Hi,

Once you import/create a cloud post template with the tagDiv composer and save it, it will appear in the theme panel as a general post template

Also in the single post edit screen – https://www.screencast.com/t/QA0sgNV7
That would be all there is to it. What exactly is happening in your case?
