Hi there,
1. For some reason social icons(except) Twitter is not showing up in my social menu.
The problem appears to be with the specific links you have added for Facebook and Instagram.
If I try to view the Facebook link, https://www.facebook.com/lexingtonsaysenough, Facebook is only showing an error message, so that does not appear to be a valid link.
And while your Instagram link does load your profile at https://www.instagram.com/lexingtonsaysenough/, the menu won’t show an icon for it, while it does show an icon if I paste any other Instagram link. So something is wrong with the specific profile link you’re using.
To rule out one option, can you please try disabling all plugins you’ve added to your site and see if that makes any difference? If it does, then re-enable the plugins one at a time until you find the one that’s causing the problems.
2. How do I NOT show social icons on every post on the home page?
Go to My Site ->Sharing ->Sharing Buttons. In the Options section at the bottom of that page, uncheck the option to show sharing buttons on the Front and Archive pages.
3. Is there a slack icon I can use?
Our built-in sharing buttons does not include an option for Slack, no. I suggest you try searching at https://wordpress.org/plugins/ if there are any plugins available that can add that button for you.
