# Automatic mode does not display and does not float

 * The hooks are already in both the header and the footer files. When set to automatic,
   it does not display at all. I must add `<?php DISPLAY_ACURAX_ICONS(); ?>` to 
   the header.php file before it shows up. Then it shows up in the center, very 
   top of the page. What I would like it to do is display in the white space of 
   the header above the menu towards the right side. The URL is [http://prom.businesslocallistings.com](http://prom.businesslocallistings.com)
   if you would like to take a look.
 * Thanks,
 * Tina

 * Hello,
 * Thanks for being with us,
 * the problem is because of your theme
 * Please take a look at
 * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_footer](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_footer)
 * According to wordpress theme design guidelines
 * Always have wp_footer() just before the closing </body>
    tag of your theme, or
   you will break many plugins, which generally use this hook to reference JavaScript
   files.
 * So Make sure, in
    Apperance >> Editor
 * Footer.php
 * the <?php wp_footer(); ?> is placed just before the </body> tag.
 * If you have trouble, then please send your wordpress login to info at acurax 
   dot com and, then we can help you to fix the issue.
 * Thank you

 * Even when I strip out everything but the `<?php wp_footer(); ?>` and the body
   tag, it still doesn’t work on automatic.
 * Anyway, I get the feeling I can’t use automatic for what I’m doing anyway. So
   how can I position the icons over the white space of the header, right aligned
   above the menu? Do I need the pro version for that?
 * Thanks,
 * Tina
