additional facebook page

[Rachel]

hi, my client wants to have 2 facebook icons for the social media bar (she has an english and russian facebook page). How can I add another facebook button?

Also, how would I add text in the top right corner above the navigation? Thanks.

This definitely requires a child theme (which this theme has) if not already using it. But the easiest way would be to convert one of the other icons as a second facebook icons.

The files you would need to customize and into the child theme are:

1. header.php
2. includes/theme-customizer.php (social stuff begins around line 566 for whichever one you change)
3. style.css around line 464 (again, replace one of the social icons with the facebook one to give you a second icon

The rest will be up to you …

Fun hey! :woohoo:

thanks. What about the 2nd questions?

Sorry forgot about that one… the bad news is that because that is now getting into some major theme customization, this is not covered by theme support, so this one you will have to dig in and do it. I will be honest that it won’t be easy because whatever you put there is going to affect surrounding elements and their positions. You will need to be very comfortable in HTML and CSS coding by opening the header.php file (do this in a child theme) and figure out the code that is already there. Perhaps someone else in the forums will be able to help you out because I remember some have made custom changes like that.

I see. How about if I add menu options that lop to the next line, do you know how I can remove the link and just make the menu option text with no link? Silly questions but I am looking for flexible fix. Thanks

I don’t believe that will work for you. Ultimately you need to add a container above the nav container in the header.php file so you can put your text there, whatever it is you need there. If you also need to maintain responsiveness of the theme, then it gets even more complex.

I am going to have to try to make due. thanks.
