  Hi there,

  I accidentally deleted the Social Media Buttons at the top (e.g. facebook and twitter buttons) and cannot find a way to restore them. Can you please help me out?

  Thanks and cheers

  Hi Sandra,

  It depends upon which theme is applied, and your site is marked private so volunteers such as myself can’t view the site. However, try the following:

  1. At Customize > Menus > Menu Locations > Social Links Menu, select the menu of you choice from the drop-down menu.
  2. Click the Save & Publish button.

  If that doesn’t resolve the issue, then perhaps you’ll have to add deleted items to your social links menu, or (if the menu has been deleted) even recreate the social links menu. Relevant instructions, in either case, may be found in the Add a Social Links Menu support page.

  Which theme is applied?

  Hi there – it looks like your social links menu is empty, so you’ll need to recreate it, as there aren’t any menu revisions saved in WordPress.

  You’ll need to go back into your menu editor and recreate it.

  p.s. musicdoc1 – thanks for trying to help, it’s certainly tricky when you can’t see the site!

  Hi musicdoc1 and kathrynwp,

  thank you very much for your help – and sorry that my site was/is marked as private and you couldn’t see anything.

  Is there a way to copy the social links menu anywhere or how can I recreate it? Do you have a tip for that?

  Thanks again!!

  Great! I’ll mark this thread as resolved but feel free to start a new one if you need help with anything else.
