social media icons - howto ?

Post by hepkat63 »

Hi,
I am a newbie and have my site basically setup, but would like to put social media icons at the top of the page like here: http://docs.cmsmadesimple.org/content-2 ... ntent-page

Can someone please help me to do this ? Is there a link somewhere with a howto ?
thank you !

Since I don’t suppose this will change often you could simply hard-code it into the HTML (template). A simple list with text links as base form, and then use CSS to hide the text and apply the appropriate icons as background images.

umm, ok - thanks. However, I really would like to do this just like the link I provided.
Surely someone out there has social media links on their CMS sites?

In any modern browser, right click on the icons and select "Inspect".

Sorry, I don't have time to do your work for you.
