 * Hi [@kbat82](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kbat82/),
    **Awesome!** The 
   code you provided worked perfectly and looks good! Thanks for such a solid plugin!
   And, I appreciate your thoughts on going forward with the override. Great idea!
 * Thanks again!
 * Marking this resolved.

 * I updated with the new release MetaSlider Version 3.6.3, and then added the code
   from another support ticket as I needed all the slider dots to show:
    `.flex-
   control-nav {position: static !important; }` But the dots are still showing with
   lots of space between them. I found that if I used this code, the spacing is 
   improved: `.entry-content ol li {margin: 0 0 0 0 !important ;}`
 * Here is a sample home page with metaslider that recreates the dot problem I am
   having with a live site: [site](http://wp4u.wpengine.com/)
 * The issue is the .entry-content ol li is part of the theme css and I am trying
   to figure out how to be more specific for metaslider. I have tried various combinations
   and the slider dots revert back to the wide spacing when I add another class.
   For example: `.flex-control-nav flex-control-paging li .entry-control ol li {
   
   margin: 0 0 0 0 !important;}`
 * How can we make this `.entry-content ol li` code be more specific to metaslider?
 * Hope this makes sense. Thanks so much for your guidance.

 * Hey [@kbat82](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kbat82/), thanks for the reply.
   I took out the `<a>` in the code above and unfortunately the dots wound up next
   to each other with no margin so added the `<a>` back in so there is a margin 
   between each dot for now.
 * Perhaps I am not understanding your reply (I apologize for that), but I am happy
   so far, so I will await the next MS update and go from there.
 * Thanks again for letting me know. I truly appreciate it.

 * Although I thought upgrading the PHP to 5.6.30 fixed the issue, but when I logged
   into the site today and wanted to add a new event, the error was back on the “
   page”:
    /wp-admin/post-new.php?post_type=ai1ec_eventdetails.
 * The error: Warning: http_build_query(): Parameter 1 expected to be Array or Object.
   Incorrect value given in /wp-includes/Requests/Transport/cURL.php on line 508
 * It hasn’t impacted the site as far as I can tell, but it would be helpful to 
   know of any other suggestions to clear this up.
 * Thanks,

 * Okay, I think I found the answer. As mentioned above, the PHP version was 5.4.45.
   
   I found a clue about upgrading the PHP version to 5.6+: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-arrays-are-not-allowed-in-class-constants/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-arrays-are-not-allowed-in-class-constants/)
 * I upgraded the PHP version to 5.6+, put back the json_encode code back into the
   file and cleared cached. Tested, and I am not seeing the error right now. Hurray!
 * I believe the answer is upgrade the PHP to 5.6+.

 * Hope you don’t mind me adding to this thread. Or if you want me to start a new
   thread let me know.
 * I am also having the same issue. I am currently using PHP version: 5.4.45 – used
   Jonathan’s code from this page to remove the json_encode and it seemed to have
   cleared up: [https://ideas.time.ly/ideas/CAL-I-432](https://ideas.time.ly/ideas/CAL-I-432).
   Not sure what if any impact there is by taking the code out, so wondering if 
   that’s okay.
    Before changing the code I also did a reinstall WordPress 4.8.2.
   Dashboard, Updates, Re-install Now. That didn’t help and continued getting the
   error, hence the code change.
 * Thanks for any insight.

 * Hi Nick,
    Solved! I had locked down the urls with define statements in the wp-
   config.php, so the wordpress and site addresses couldn’t changed in the general
   > settings.
 * Once I removed those 2 lines in the wp-config, the website got served without
   the www and the icons showed up!
    I used the info above and this link to provide
   the clues I needed: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simple-social-icons-showing-up-white/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simple-social-icons-showing-up-white/)
 * Thanks again for reaching out and providing the ideas to help solve this issue.

 * Hi Nick,
    Thanks for your options above. Give me a few days to get a response
   back from the hosting company.
 * I checked to ensure that the SVG icon files are in the 2.0.1 version of the plugin.
   Yes, the SVG file is in the 2.0.1 version on the website.
 * It’s a very simple site, no CDN and caching is not turned on.
 * I do have the settings > general > wordpress url and site address url locked 
   down within the wp-config so you can’t make changes in general settings.
    The
   wordpress address and site address urls starts with [http://www&#8230](http://www&#8230);
 * I’ll see if the hosting company can help me based on the options you raised.
   
   Thanks for your ideas.

 * [@scallop](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scallop/), It looks like adding
   this code to the css file will move the left margin by 50px;
    `.wpcr3_respond_1{
   margin-left: 50px !important; }`
 * As always, back up your site before make changes and if possible, test out any
   changes in a “test” site before updating your “live” site.
 * Hope that helps.

 * [@persian24](https://wordpress.org/support/users/persian24/) – looking at your
   website, it looks like you could try this css:
    `.wpcr3_in_content {margin-left:
   30px; margin-right: 30px !important; }`
 * If you are using the Divi theme, you might want to find the Custom CSS box which
   may be under Divi Theme Options > General Settings > Custom CSS.

 * [@scallop](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scallop/) – I had the same issue
   as well.
    What I found is that I had to go to each review post that was created,
   scrolled down towards the bottom and I found WP Customer Reviews > Enable WP 
   Customer Reviews for this page (I clicked on the box to get the check mark). 
   Once I clicked the box, more entries showed including Review Format with choices
   of Business/Product. Hope that helps.

   the file. If you are uncomfortable doing this, your hosting company may be able

 * Having the same problem with no icons showing…the site uses CloudFlare.
    Saw 
   that Simple Social Icons version 1.0.11 is now available which states in the 
   Changelog: Update enqueue version for stylesheet, for cache busting.
 * Updated the Plugin to 1.0.11 and the icons are now showing!
    Super! Thanks much!
