Someone else raised that some time ago. Need Nic to issue a statement on what is planned.
Obviously it would be better if this was supported natively by the theme, but for anyone else who just can’t wait and understands the nature of updating a parent them vs. a child theme, the following will allow you to have the instagram icon display, with the customization able to be maintained via the Dashboard interface:
NOTE: These changes WILL be lost if the theme is updated and you do these updates to the parent theme.
1) Add the following to around line #7075 in the /inc/css/(color).css file:
.icon-instagram:before {
content: “\f215”;
}
2) Add the following to around line #704 in the /inc/admin/class-admin-customize.php file:
‘tc_theme_options[tc_instagram]’ => array(
‘sanitize_callback’ => array( $this , ‘tc_sanitize_url’ ),
‘control’ => ‘TC_controls’ ,
‘label’ => __( ‘Instagram profile url’ , ‘customizr’ ),
‘section’ => ‘tc_social_settings’ ,
‘type’ => ‘url’ ,
‘priority’ => 125
),
3) Add the following to around line #301 in the /inc/class-fire-utils.php file:
‘tc_instagram’ => ‘instagram’,
Hope this helps anyone else in the same boat.
