php snippet available for Simple Social Icons?

I’d like to use Simple Social Icons within a directory plugin, GeoDirectory.

The GeoDirectory devs tell me it’s possible:

it would be possible if the plugin offers a php snippet to add its icons.

In that case instead of removing “geodir_social_sharing_buttons”, you would replace it with the function to call the icons of that plugin.

However I don’t know if there is a php snippet for that plugin to output icons in a template. You’ll ahve to ask that to its developer.

Is there a php snippet for Simple Social Icons?

Thank you for your help.

Try this, it worked for me

<?php
echo do_shortcode('[social-icons]');
?>

Forgot to mention, you need to add the Genesis Simple Share Shortcode to your functions.php for the above to work. So:

1. Add this to your functions.php

//* Genesis Simple Share Shortcode
add_shortcode( 'social-icons', 'gss_shortcode' );
function gss_shortcode() {
	global $Genesis_Simple_Share;
	$icons = '';

	if ( function_exists( 'genesis_share_get_icon_output' ) ) {
		$icons = genesis_share_get_icon_output( 'gss-shortcode', $Genesis_Simple_Share->icons );
	}

	return $icons;
}

2. Add the shortcode in your page/post, for example

[social-icons]

<?php
echo do_shortcode('[social-icons]');
?>
