    Hello All,

    I was wondering if anyone could help with me to centre the social icons when I use the Altitude theme. The plugin itself is supposed to align centre. But it's not working. The domain is:

    And it's the "Contact" menu item.

    thanks!

    Hi,

    Your Simple Social Icons are set "Alignment: "Align Right". Please try "Align Center".

    If you made any CSS mods trying to change this, they would probably have to be undone as well.

    Hi Tom,

    Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, even when I set the Simple Social Icons' Alignment as "Align Right", it still doesn't want to cooperate. And I don't have any other manual CSS edits...

    But what is the result of trying “Align Center”?

    Edit:
    I meant to also ask why this single widget area has a class of "genesis-extender-widget-area". Is there a reason for using Extender to add SSI to Front Page 7?

    After another look: The theme is forcing the 2nd widget area (SSI) to the left.

    I was wondering why you had placed the "Send Us a Message" CTA button in another text widget below the SSI. This makes a total of three widgets in Front Page 7 -- therefore the the flex CSS of Altitude's front page will place the items as per this chart

    Remove the third widget for the "Send Us a Message" CTA or position it in the same text-widget as the "Contact us anytime with any comments, concerns, suggestions or questions you might have." message. This fixes the layout and also makes the CTA more direct,

    Hi,

    Try adding this in your style.css

    div#social{
    display:block;
    }
    div#social:before,div#social:after{
    content:"";
    display:block;
    clear:both;
    }
