    Hello,
    I`m using the Parabola 1.2.0 theme.
    As I need just a Facebook icon on my website, I would like to disable the rest. Unfortunately I can`t find it how.
    Many thanks for your help and a great theme!

    Hi

    Go to Parabola Settings then to Social Media Settings then at the bottom uncheck all the options, or you can just blank all the fields for Facebook etc i.e. remove the # sign.

    I hope this helps

    Thanks for your prompt answers!
    One more question: where can I change the social icon?
    Regards

    Hi

    The Social Icons sit within the folder Parabola/images/socials

    Yes but wouldn’t my social icon disappear next the time I’m updating the theme?
    I’m using the child theme.
    Many thanks

    Hi

    As long as you put a copy of the folder, with the path. within your child theme you should be OK, they should not get overwritten by a theme update i.e. Parabola-child/images/socials

    You’ll need to get your replacement icons to 26px x 26px in PNG format and using exactly the same file names as the ones you are replacing.

    I hope this helps

    Hi

    Sorry..please ignore what I said above

    “As long as you put a copy of the folder, with the path. within your child theme you should be OK, they should not get overwritten by a theme update i.e. Parabola-child/images/socials”

    I tried it out and it didn’t work as I thought, I suspect you’ll possibly need some change to the theme-functions.php file, but I’m not sure exactly what.

    Thanks, really appreciate you’re trying to help. The theme itself spares me a lot of time and that’s already great:)

    Parabola doesn’t yet support easily overriding the social images. We’ll get this done in a future update.
