Hello.

How can I edit the the top header? It currently has the RSS icon and a search bar, but I would like to add other social network icons. Is that possible?

Thank you!

Hi Jen,

Yes you can, but currently that will involve either editing the header.php file directly, or creating a new header.php file in the child theme, both of which are less-than-ideal options. The next update of the theme will include a bunch of action hooks added to the theme’s codes, so you can easily customise the theme without resorting to editing the core theme files.

The update has already been released. The current version already has action hooks included.

Hey, I tried to use this function with no success. Do you think you could help me ?

I want to put social buttons on the top header.

To do it I go to “Graphen’s option” in my dashboard, “Social Buttons”, I tick the box “Display the social button” and I put my HTML code without any result.

I think I misunderstood something.

could you tell me what ?

I Your Child Theme functions.php insert as many “link” linies You like:

<?php

function graphene_social_icons(){ ?>

<a href="http://www.facebook.com/sample" title="Facebook"><img src="http://www.sample.org/facebook.png" /></a>

<a href="http://www.twitter.com/sample" title="Twitter"><img src="http://www.sample.org/twitter.png" />

</a>

<?php

}

add_action('graphene_feed_icon','graphene_social_icons');

?>

Next I think You like to have less space between icons.

Insert in Child Theme style.css:

#rss a {

float: right;

margin: 13px 10px 0 0;

}

#rss a.rss_link{

margin-right:23px;

}

And If You need some icons 🙂

Thanks Kim. It is ok appart from the fact that the RSS button is also repeated.

Any last Idea ?

You need to upload and link to different images 🙂

Then again, in style.css:

#rss a {

margin-left:10px;

}



#rss a.rss_link {

margin-left:23px;

}

And Your icons is 29x29px 🙂

I did enlarge the social icons to mask the RSS icon (another way to solve the problem 😉 ) Many thanks
