I’d like to add soundcloud and instagram links to my social links.  Any way to add custom social links?

@mook32: there is one trick that you can do. Just option the image social-profiles.png in theme “image” directory. Then change the icon with the one that you don’t use.

Then in your Theme Options, social icons add the url. So, it will show the replaces image.

Genius!  Thank you again.

Worked great except that the alt text is innaccurate. ie: When I hover over the new Sound Cloud icon, it says “JoeConklin on Tumblr” Any css trick to fix that or is that it?

@mook32: Oh for this one you need to edit the function catchbox_social_networks() which you will find in file catchbox-functions.php which in inside “inc” directory of your theme.

after that you need to clear the cache of option panel. So, change any option in Theme Options and save it which will clear the cache and it will be fine.

Glad to see solutions in this thread.

I successfully modified the .png to display the logo I wanted but I still can’t can’t get the hover text to change.

What exactly in the example below needs to be changed so that the hover doesn’t display “user in Dribbble” but “this is my custom text”?

 //Dribbble
 // if ( !empty( $options[ 'social_dribbble' ] ) ) {
 // $catchbox_social_networks .=
 // '<li class="dribbble"><a href="'.esc_url( $options[ 'social_dribbble' ]
// ).'" title="'.sprintf( esc_attr__( '%s in Dribbble', 'simplecatch'
// ),get_bloginfo('name') ).'">'.get_bloginfo( 'name' ).' Dribbble </a></li>';

@zachsnyder: The hover text in the Title in the link.
