There is a set but there is no list provided to be able to see what the codes are to be able to change them. Typography pages has the Fontawesome list but not PixelLove. I had a look on their site but they dont have any cheatsheet/list so I need to know this answer also.

I'm sorry. I decided to add a third-party icons in this module.

I've manually edited HTML in social icons module (just removed few)
Code: Select all
<p><a class="gk-icon-gplus" href="#">G+</a> <a class="gk-icon-linkedin" href="#">linkedIn</a> <a class="gk-icon-twitter" href="#">Twitter</a> <a class="gk-icon-youtube" href="#">YouTube</a></p>

this caused all the icons drop few px and not to be inline with search box and login

why? :?
Thanks

Hi

While adding a custom html code You should disable using editor in user settings first. Editors add or removes some elements for a propper html syntax. In Your case there should be no <p></p> which was added by editor and caused icons to drop.

Thank you teitbite!
It's exactly as you said. Even with no edit in editor it will add <p></p> marks just by opening it! Simply disabling editor in global configuration is the way. Regards

Hi

I've noticed that JCE editor has a nicer configuration panel where it can be disabled with just one click, so I believe it's worth to switch to this one.
