    I just updated Decode and my social icons have changed colour.
    I checked the Customize tool and it is still set to “Use accent color instead of text color for icons”, but the text colour is showing, not accent colour.
    I am using a Child theme, Customize page for Child theme. Things aren’t supposed to change when using a child theme, I thought….
    Am I doing something wrong? It worked before updating.

    EDIT: I went into Customize and unchecked the box, saved, then checked it again and saved again, but no effect.

    On a side note, is there any way, via css or something else, to change the icon colour? If I wanted it to be a different colour than anything else, rather than be stuck with only accent or text colours? (I don’t really understand even how this works!)

    Thanks!

  • Can you send me a link to your site, dear Saladgoat? 🙂
    This is working for me, so I need to narrow down what could be wrong.

    EDIT: And yes, there is a way to change the social icon colors, I’ll fill you in on that once we get the color reverting fixed. 🙂

    No can do. I’ve already regressed to the previous version which works just fine.

    Gotcha. I’ve fixed all the bugs I’ve seen reports for but this one. I’ll keep digging.

    In the Custom CSS field, under Other Options in the Customizer:
    Change the color of the social icons:
    .social-icon-fill { fill: #00B0CC; }

    Change the color of the menu and menu close icons:
    .menu-icon, .close-icon { fill: #00B0CC; }

    Just tried that quickly in the old version, but it had no effect. I am using a child theme, so put it in the child css. Then I tried it in the Custom CSS, but neither worked. Maybe it only works in the new version?
    It’s probably another week before I’ll have time to try that out….

    Yeah, I think pre-3.x CSS would be:
    . SocialIconFill, . SidebarMenuTrigger, . SidebarMenuClose { fill: #00B0CC; }

    Updated to 3.0.1 and still having the same issues. Icons are default colour, in spite of settings in Customize.
    Unchecked the box in Customize and added the above css, but it had no effect.

    OK, got it now.
    I never know when to extend the css and when to just use bare bones.

    Using
    .social-icon-fill { fill: #00B0CC; }
    had no effect.

    However, using
    .social-links-container .social-icon-fill { fill: #00B0CC; }
    did the trick.

    Thanks.
