How to add Yelp to Theme Options > Socials
Closed

Comments

  • bnluce started the conversation

    My client wants to add Yelp to the display of social icons in the footer. Yelp is not currently one of the options provided under Theme Options > Contacts & Socials within the admin interface. Could you provide guidance on how to add it as an option or to bypass. I'm happy to modify page templates and PHP if necessary. Thank you for your help.

    Hi Gregor,

    You've misunderstood the question. Please see the attachment. I'm trying to add Yelp as an option in the admin interface so it will display with the other social media links in the footer. Are you able to help with this?

    Thanks,

    - Ben

    Hi,

    It's  not possible to add icon there without the code changes in the theme core files. Can you add screenshot where you need to add it on the site?

    Gregor,

    I ended up adding markup to the footer.php file to make the Yelp link match the social links generated by code. I was hoping to avoid a hardwired solution. Maybe a future update of the theme can add the Yelp option. Quite a few small businesses rely on Yelp and want to encourage customers to write reviews there. Makes sense to add it.

    Thanks,

    - Ben

    If it helps your developers, I have added the Yelp icon to the font files and then the following CSS would be used.

    .socials-item-icon.yelp::before {
        content: '\e5ff';
        color: #B92E22;
    }

    If you can just add the Yelp option to the interface so that it correctly calls the above CSS, that would be great!

    Thank you.
