Social Media Icon For X (formerly Twitter)?

SP Page Builder 4 months ago

Hi,

When I'm in SP Pagebuilder and creating a team page for example and I want to put their social media accounts, I'm limited to what the fields allow. Some socials are not available for me to input as it only allows a select few options. Others are using old icons like using the bird icon for X (formerly Twitter). How do I add new socials that aren't available as an option where I can add my own icons and how do I change the logo icon to X instead of the Twitter bird?

Thanks, Nader

If somehow you still have old icon, and your template & Joomla is using a Font Awesome 6 you can try that CSS hack:

.fa-twitter::before {content: "\e61b" !important; font-family: "Font Awesome 6 Brands";}

it will replace old icon with new "X" in all addons, articles, modules. That's all, no fear.

Hi Paul,

Which addon are you using? I don't have that option. If I'm using the "Person" addon I just get a social section for each person where I enter in their URL.

If you use latest version of Page Builder then you will get the X icon when you use twitter link.

Good question that I should ask you first.

I used screenshot from Team Carousel addon becuase you mentioned about "team page".

By default in SPPB 5.6.x in Person addon there is "X" icon. I don't have to change anything.

Maybe your person addon is override inside the template directory. Please remove or rename the override person addon directory then check again. Thanks
