I'm trying to set up my template to display social media icons only if they have a value to display. Do I do this through a css id? If so is there any documentation I can refer to?

Thanks!

Hi Emily,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

I suspect that the users will fill out a custom field and you only want to display the social icon if that field is not empty.

You can do this by using our conditional shortcode to check if the field is empty.

Take a look at the documentation below and let me know if it helps.

Thanks,
