    HI there:-)

    In admin panel there is different file used for displaying social icons, so that is source of issue. But it shouldn't bother you, if everything is displaying good on front-end.

    With kind regards.
  • Hi, there. I agree with you. But at the front-end also having the same type of the display.

    OK, now I understand that my solution is not full:-) You will also have to update CSS, or rather add Custom CSS. I see you have replaced AIM icon, so this is CSS for you:

    /* On light background */
    a.a13_soc-lookbook{ background-position: -10px -60px; }

    /* On dark background */
    .dark-bg a.a13_soc-lookbook{ background-position: -110px -60px; }

    /*HOVERS*/
    .socials a.a13_soc-lookbook:hover{ background-position: -60px -60px; }
    However I don't know which other icon you have replaced. So I will give you CSS after you tell me :-)

    With kind regards.
  • Thanks you very much, I understand the meaning d. the next want i already solve it by myself d. Appreciate for your help, Air.

    Open file in some editor, and replace icon you wish to sacrifice for your new icon :-) That is all.
