  Hallo! I just want my social media icons to appear in “The Adaption Theme” like it says:

  Linking to any of the following sites will automatically display its icon in your menu.

  You don’t have any menus displayed at http://institute4uartists.org/, which http://cajoneradecojones.wordpress.com/ is redirected to. The Adaption theme allows a primary menu and a social links menu. If you’ve created either or both, then you might need to enable the display of each menu by checking the appropriate theme location box for each menu at Menu Settings at the bottom of the corresponding Menu Structure.

  Thanks a lot for your answer!

  I created both menus as you suggested, but even if I check the “Social links menu” box, it doesn’t display my facebook and twitter (properly set up and connected, according to wordpress “Share” settings).

  It’s been 6 years using wordpress… but sometimes I feel like a newby with these things.

  Another doubt! I trying to set up Zoho Mail Suite.

  I did changes in CNAME and also TXT records as sugested, to verify my domain. But after 12 hours… Zoho says it can’t verify… what am I doing wrong??

  Thanks a lot in advance!

  The only social media icon displayed is “WordPress”, which I don’t want!! and I didn’t activate! (why should I put an icon redirecting to the same page in which it’s displayed??)

  I want only Twitter and Facebook icons,

  I followed these instructions:

  Add Social Share Buttons

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/

  And in my settings share page, it says all is ok and connected.

  What am I doing wrong?

  Any one out there?

  The three-bar tab at the top left corner of your website opens both menus simultaneously. Your primary menu presently includes one link, “Home,” and your Social Links menu has Facebook and Twitter icons.

  Yep!

  Thanks, I had a wonderful chat help with Andrew – WordPress.com

  and he helped me step by step.

  They proper way to do it is to add “Links” to the facebook, twitter… accounts to a menu, and set it as Social Links menu.

  I just didn’t understand this point.
