Can I add an additional (or more) icons up top in the Vertex settings somehow?

Thanks,

Brandon

I believe it is possible, but there would be multiple code edits.  You would need to add the settings to the XML, and you would need to edit the index to add the icons and the setting call to get the URLs as defined in the admin.

That kind of custom coding is outside the level of support covered by membership, but I can at least point you the right direction...

The current version of the framework can detect new XML files, so duplicate the "specific.xml" file, and name it something like "specific2.xml" (to put it alphabetically after the original), then remove all options except the social ones...  then just change their ids/names/descriptions/etc.

In the index, copy the code for one of the social icons as many times as you need, and alter it to use the settings you created in the new XML file.
