    Hi. I'm using the Outreach theme. I have a landing page enabled, but you can see the site at: modernfirefighter.com/535353

    I've added social button icons to my main nav menu as links and they show up fine, but I have two problems with them. First problem, when I hover over them, they disappear/white out. What can I do to fix this so they hover like the other menu items or don't change at all on hover?

    The second problem is their responsiveness. When I shrink my screen, they look funky. Any help with that would be appreciated, as well.

    I added the icons under: appearance > menu > link. I also enabled the "CSS Classes" in the "Screen Options" tab at the top of the "Menu" page.

    Here is the basic code I added to my css for each of the icons I added.

    /*Linkedin Icon */

    .menu-linkedin {
    text-indent: -9999px;
    background-image: url(images/linkedin.png) !important;
    background-repeat: no-repeat !important;
    margin-left: 10px !important;
    width: 50px;
    }

    .menu-linkedin a:hover {
    background: #f5f5f5 !important;
    }

    Any help is appreciated!

    Brad

    You are mixing up a lot of things. You have a background image on a li tag and the hover state (which is almost white) on an a tag. So the a tag is doing its job and displaying a white background on hover.

    Ok, thanks. I'm new to this, so are there any easy adjustments you or anyone else can suggest?

    Thanks.
