How to install custom sharing icons in Genesis (& 5 sets of free buttons)
These sharing buttons will suit a nice clean theme. Minimalist in design, focusing on text.
Download link is below the image.
Easy Installation Tip for Widgets:
Add the image you’d like to a new post screen. Add the link in the edit image screen as usual. When you’re finished, switch to the ‘Text” view and copy the HTML. Paste that HTML into a text widget (Appearance -> Widgets). Save. View the website to see your clickable image.
Advanced Installation for Genesis Child Themes:
1. Place all images in the child theme/images directory.
2. Add this to the hook of your choice (usually ‘genesis_after_post_content’):
add_action('your hook here', 'custom_sharing_icons');
function custom_sharing_icons() { ?>
