@nagesh-seogmail-com: Are you trying to add the buttons with plugin or just the links/codes? Since in Catch Responsive Free, header right section comes directly through code and the content cannot be modified through dashboard, you’ll need to create a child theme and override the following function.

function catchresponsive_header_right() { ?>
	<aside class="sidebar sidebar-header-right widget-area">
		<section class="widget widget_search" id="header-right-search">
			<div class="widget-wrap">
				<?php echo get_search_form(); ?>
			</div>
		</section>
		<?php if ( '' != ( $catchresponsive_social_icons = catchresponsive_get_social_icons() ) ) { ?>
			<section class="widget widget_catchresponsive_social_icons" id="header-right-social-icons">
				<div class="widget-wrap">
					<?php echo $catchresponsive_social_icons; ?>
				</div><!-- .widget-wrap -->
			</section><!-- #header-right-social-icons -->
		<?php
		} ?>
	</aside><!-- .sidebar .header-sidebar .widget-area -->
<?php
}

Note: You can find more on creating child theme HERE.

Thanks Mahesh, But i am unable to figure out which page to change? (header.php, or )

The plugin is Google Language Translator and the short code is [GTranslate]

I think i need to add this code in header.

<?php echo do_shortcode(‘[GTranslate]’); ?>

@nagesh-seogmail-com: Overriding above function will fix the issue, no need to edit other files. In the above code, replace the following code

<?php if ( '' != ( $catchresponsive_social_icons = catchresponsive_get_social_icons() ) ) { ?>
    <section class="widget widget_catchresponsive_social_icons" id="header-right-social-icons">
        <div class="widget-wrap">
            <?php echo $catchresponsive_social_icons; ?>
        </div><!-- .widget-wrap -->
    </section><!-- #header-right-social-icons -->
<?php
} ?>

with the following:
<?php echo do_shortcode(‘[GTranslate]’); ?>
However, you may need to change some CSS if some design issue occur.
Hope this helps, let me know if any problem.

Mahesh

@nagesh-seogmail-com: First you must create a child theme. For more details on creating child theme, go to this LINK. Then in your child theme’s functions.php, copy and paste the above function i.e. catchresponsive_header_right (you can find the function in catch-responsive/inc/catchresponsive-structure.php file). Then in the function, replace the following code with the Gtranslate’s shortcode:

<?php if ( '' != ( $catchresponsive_social_icons = catchresponsive_get_social_icons() ) ) { ?>
    <section class="widget widget_catchresponsive_social_icons" id="header-right-social-icons">
        <div class="widget-wrap">
            <?php echo $catchresponsive_social_icons; ?>
        </div><!-- .widget-wrap -->
    </section><!-- #header-right-social-icons -->
<?php
} ?>

Replace With the following:
<?php echo do_shortcode(‘[GTranslate]’); ?>
Hope this helps.
If you are not much familiar with coding, I recommend you to hire a customizer.

Regards,
Mahesh
