  hello!
  I am using your theme and we have recently opened a tiktok channel.
  It seems that currently the theme doesn’t support tiktok. Is there a plan to change that? Do I need to upgrade, or do something to make it appear?
  Many thanks,
  Tony Robinson

  When I clicked to post this query, I thought this forum was specifically for the Alves theme, but it appears not.

  Hello,
  How are you?

  I installed the Alves theme and managed to insert the Tik Tok link through the Social Icon Block in the body of the site.
  https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/social-icons-block/

  For the Menu:

  The Tik Tok icon still doesn’t appear in the list of supported icons in the documentation, but he thought the list is out of date because I managed to insert the Tik Tok icon and link in the Menu of this theme (Alves).

  Just follow these steps:

  Hope this helps

  Hello, and thanks for your message.

  I can add a link to tiktok but it doesn’t find the icon.

  Home

  The last icon on the right is meant to be a tiktok icon.

  Is there a way I can add a social media icon somewhere and then connect it to the social media menu?

  @tonymrobinson – it looks like you’re on an older version of Alves (1.5.10) – please update the theme to the current version (1.5.18) and the icon should work.

  If you’re not prompted to update, download new versions of Alves and Varia at the bottom of the theme page here:

  I hope that helps! Let us know if you still have trouble.
