Twitter old logo

[Balto]

Hello,

 

If I go to AdminCP-System-Settings-General Configuration, I see this:

 

 

Adding a Twitter page will show this on the Home page:

 

 

As you all know, the Twitter logo (and name) has changed, and most of the websites have now adapted the logo to the new one. When do you plan to update this as well?

 

Same should be done from the Block Manager:

 

 

Which right now is showing this:

 

 

Thank you in advance!

Thank you, I've brought this up internally.

The current IPS version supports only Font Awesome 4.7, in which the new X logo does not exist.

You would have to upgrade to the latest Font Awesome (either via plugin or manually) and then you can add the social button yourself.

I wrote an article a few years ago how to do this easily, even without plugin ...

The X logo is a unicode symbol so you can use 𝕏 or add icon as SVG

But how can I place it in the correct place? I mean, in the social icons in the top part of the website.

CSS styles should allow you to change its position.

Thank you! But I would prefer to avoid editing CSS code for this. I hope Invision Community will be able to change the logo, the old Twitter logo is not useful anymore.

This issue has been resolved in our recent 4.7.14 release of the platform. Please upgrade to resolve the issue, and if you see any further problems at that point, please let us know.

I have the social logos at the bottom of the board. The X logo (black circle,white X) doesn't line up with the others. It's too high.

Is this just me? It's the same on the IPS Support theme.

Twitter (X) is shown exactly like this, not inline with the others.

I have noticed this too. it seems a bit off to be exactly aligned. following can fix the alignment issue for position bottom, until permanent fix to be released. just add to your custom.css

#elFooterSocialLinks {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  gap: 2px;
}
