 * I inserted SSIcons to the header and footer. On almost every page where I use
   elementor the icons lose their styling. On pages without elementor everything
   is fine. Custom css workarounds didn’t work for me. Is there anything I can do?
   Or this has to be patched?
    It never happend before, so it has to be the problem
   caused be the newest version of elementor or SSI.
 * Thank you in advance.

 * Hi [@mic22](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mic22/),
 * I’ve checked the pages you’ve shared and noticed that they’re now using a different
   plugin for social icons.
 * I was able to reproduce the issue on my test website too and it seems that the
   way “Elementor” plugin filters the widget’s and their IDs, some styles from the“
   Simple Social Icons” are not included on pages edited by the Elementor plugin.
 * For now, the workaround can be to manually include those styles on those selective
   pages or the entire website.
 * You can find those styles inside the <head> tag of your pages without Elementor
   plugin:

 * I hope this helps!

 * I was trying before with custom css, it wasn’t working, this time I wrote the
   perfect css blocks 😀 Here they are, because I imagine many people have the same
   issue – elementor is very popular ;D
 * .simple-social-icons ul li a{
    background-color: #F18860 !important; border-radius:
   3px; color: #ffffff !important; border: 0px #ffffff solid !important; font-size:
   18px; padding: 9px; }
 * .simple-social-icons ul li a:hover, .simple-social-icons ul li a:focus{
    background-
   color: #F8E1B4 !important; border-radius: 3px; color: #ffffff !important; border:
   0px #ffffff solid !important; font-size: 18px; padding: 9px; }

 * Thanks for the update and glad the custom CSS code is working now.
 * Some updates are planned for the plugin “Simple Social Icons”, which will naturally
   resolve this ( ref: [https://github.com/copyblogger/simple-social-icons/pull/60/files](https://github.com/copyblogger/simple-social-icons/pull/60/files)).
 * But until then, your custom CSS code should help others – thanks for sharing!
