    Hello I am attempting to put in a twitter feed to my home page, and would love to get some social media buttons in the bottom of my menu. is there any chance of doing this?

    Id also love to ad a more friendly gallery view to some of my portfolio (which I have called Media) pages with images only, do you have any tips on doing this.

    Other than that all seems to be coming along nicely.

    Hi WilliamJLee,
    We have social media button in the bottom of the menu as default.
    Go to appearance > widgets > footer social > and use the social shortcodes.
    If you want to put the twitter feed to your home page, you can search a plugin for this feauture and you can copy the shortcodes from that plugin and paste it to your homepage.
    It is not possible by defaut to add a more friendly gallery view to the portfolio.
    Thank you

    Hi,
    I added the social media shortcodes in the “footer social” widget area, but they still don’t show up on my nav menu. Anything I can do?
    Thanks

    Hi BryLeBlanc,
    You should copy and paste that shortcodes in a text widget. Could you please the check the shortcodes.
    [social_icon first_icon="yes" type="facebook" url="#"]
    [social_icon type="twitter" url="#"]
    [social_icon type="linkedin" url="#"]
    [social_icon last_icon="yes" type="instagram" url="#"]

    Thanks

    Thanks that worked, however is it possible to change the color of the icons? they are pre-coded to be white but the background of my menu is white so they don’t show.. Thanks

    Hi BryLeBlanc,
    You can use these custom css codes;

    .header .social li a { color: #ccc; }
    .header .header-bottom .social li a:hover { color: #ddd; }

    Thanks
