Hi,
Is it possible to add custom Social Stuff links? I like the simplicity of the RSS, Facebook and Twitter links but would like to have a link to SoundCloud and LinkedIn.

Thanks

Hi,

Open sidebar.php in your theme folder or by using Appearance > Editor then scroll to the bottom until you see this code.

####### SOCKET CONTAINER #######
				echo "<div id='socket'>";
				echo "	<span class='copyright'>© ".__('Copyright','avia_framework')." - <a href='".home_url('/')."'>".get_bloginfo('name')."</a> - <a href='http://www.kriesi.at'>Wordpress Theme by Kriesi.at</a></span>";

				echo "	<ul class='social_bookmarks'>";
				echo "		<li class='rss'><a href='".avia_get_option('feedburner',get_bloginfo('rss2_url'))."'>RSS</a></li>";

						if($facebook = avia_get_option('facebook')) echo "<li class='text-sep'>/</li><li class='facebook'><a href='".$facebook."'>Facebook</a></li>";
						if($twitter = avia_get_option('twitter')) 	echo "<li class='text-sep'>/</li><li class='twitter'><a href='http://twitter.com/".$twitter."'>Twitter</a></li>";

				echo "	</ul><!-- end social_bookmarks-->";

				echo "</div>";
				####### END SOCKET CONTAINER #######

				echo "</div>";

After the Twitter link you'll want to add this:

<li class='text-sep'>/</li><li class='twitter'><a href="http://your-link-url-to-soundcloud">SoundCloud</a></li>
<li class='text-sep'>/</li><li class='twitter'><a href='http://your-link-url-to-LinkedIn">LinkedIn</a></li>

So final results would be:

####### SOCKET CONTAINER #######
				echo "<div id='socket'>";
				echo "	<span class='copyright'>&copy; ".__('Copyright','avia_framework')." - <a href='".home_url('/')."'>".get_bloginfo('name')."</a> - <a href='http://www.kriesi.at'>Wordpress Theme by Kriesi.at</a></span>";

				echo "	<ul class='social_bookmarks'>";
				echo "		<li class='rss'><a href='".avia_get_option('feedburner',get_bloginfo('rss2_url'))."'>RSS</a></li>";

						if($facebook = avia_get_option('facebook')) echo "<li class='text-sep'>/</li><li class='facebook'><a href='".$facebook."'>Facebook</a></li>";
						if($twitter = avia_get_option('twitter')) 	echo "<li class='text-sep'>/</li><li class='twitter'><a href='http://twitter.com/".$twitter."'>Twitter</a></li><li class='text-sep'>/</li><li class='twitter'><a href='http://your-link-url-to-soundcloud'>SoundCloud</a></li>
<li class='text-sep'>/</li><li class='twitter'><a href='http://your-link-url-to-LinkedIn'>LinkedIn</a></li>";

				echo "	</ul><!-- end social_bookmarks-->";

				echo "</div>";
				####### END SOCKET CONTAINER #######

				echo "</div>";

Mya

Hi Mya,

I tried entering the code and I got an error message:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ',' or ';'

Kind regards,
Colin

Use following code instead:

####### SOCKET CONTAINER #######
				echo "<div id='socket'>";
				echo "	<span class='copyright'>&copy; ".__('Copyright','avia_framework')." - <a href='".home_url('/')."'>".get_bloginfo('name')."</a> - <a href='http://www.kriesi.at'>Wordpress Theme by Kriesi.at</a></span>";

				echo "	<ul class='social_bookmarks'>";
				echo "		<li class='rss'><a href='".avia_get_option('feedburner',get_bloginfo('rss2_url'))."'>RSS</a></li>";

						if($facebook = avia_get_option('facebook')) echo "<li class='text-sep'>/</li><li class='facebook'><a href='".$facebook."'>Facebook</a></li>";
						if($twitter = avia_get_option('twitter')) 	echo "<li class='text-sep'>/</li><li class='twitter'><a href='http://twitter.com/".$twitter."'>Twitter</a></li><li class='text-sep'>/</li><li class='twitter'><a href='http://your-link-url-to-soundcloud'>SoundCloud</a></li>
<li class='text-sep'>/</li><li class='twitter'><a href='http://your-link-url-to-LinkedIn'>LinkedIn</a></li>";

				echo "	</ul><!-- end social_bookmarks-->";

				echo "</div>";
				####### END SOCKET CONTAINER #######

				echo "</div>";

Dude's suggestion worked fine for me. By the way I wouldn't worry to much for using the twitter class as its not really defined in the css
