Sorry to hear that, aries_larry!
The icons are working with WordPress 4.3 for me: http://debug.wpdemo.me/
You’re welcome to share a link to a page where the problem is visible. I’m happy to take a closer look for you.
Same here, just updated to 4.3, and the icons do not show up anymore

They have to show up top of the page
Update: they show in IE, but not in Firefox (even after emptying the cache)

@ericzaat: I’m seeing the icons in both Firefox and Chrome: http://d.pr/i/17QVh. Perhaps you were able to resolve this? If you’re still having trouble, feel free to share the version of Firefox and OS you’re using; happy to take another look.
@nick Cernis sorry i cant give you the link right now because i have created it in a localhost in my computer using xampp, I think the problem is on the theme, i am using a custom theme and I cant find out where is that specific problem?
Already found out the solution, you have to wrap the social icons inside this tag with a particular id and class <aside id=”simple-social-icons-3″ class=”widget simple-social-icons”></aside>

@aries_larry Thanks for the update – glad you were able to resolve this.
If you’re defining your own widget area you can use the class name placeholders documented in the before_widget argument here: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_sidebar
That will be substituted for the simple-social-icons class when you add the widget to the new widget area you’ve defined, which should be all the plugin needs to display the font correctly. (The li tag in before_widget and after_widget can be substituted for a tag of your choice, though.)
@nick Cernis Thank you for giving me more information about creating a custom sidebar, I learned a lots of wordpress coding stuff from you. 🙂
