Social link location in main navigation

Does anyone know if it is possible to move the location of the social icons on the main navigation? Squarespace automatically aligns them the the left side of the screen. I would like them to be to the right and directly inline with the main text links (image of design mockup attached).

 

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi,

2 options to do this

O1. Use JavaScript code to move social icons into nav (Need a Business Plan or higher)

O2. Use FontAwesome to add icons via Link Item in Pages > Main Navigation (Support All Plans)

Which option do you prefer?

@tuanphan either works! I will be using a business plan, but I kind of want to learn how to do it the svg way too 🙂

Step 1. Add this to Code Injection > Header

  <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://use.fontawesome.com/releases/v5.15.1/css/all.css" integrity="sha384-vp86vTRFVJgpjF9jiIGPEEqYqlDwgyBgEF109VFjmqGmIY/Y4HV4d3Gp2irVfcrp" crossorigin="anonymous">

Step 2. In Pages > Main Navigation >> Add 5 Link Items

Item 1

  • Name: FB
  • URL: Fb url

Item 2

  • Name: IN
  • URL: Instagram URL

Item 3

  • Name: PI
  • URL: Pinterest url

Item 4

  • Name: TW
  • URL: Twitter URL

Item 5

  • I don't know icon 5 name?? You can add coressponding name & url

When you're done, let me know. I will check & give the code to replace all text with social icons

@tuanphan this worked great on desktop, but on mobile the icons are stacking. Is there a way to make them all on the same line?

@tuanphan this worked, but the icons are not center on the screen. I tried a few different properties, but no success.
