Social Menu error; creating additional icons

    Good Morning πŸ™‚

    I created a Social Menu linking to my facebook, twitter, instagram and pinterest accounts. Which I have positioned in the top-right of the header.

    The problem is that the menu has created two more icons that I can’t seem to delete. They use the Bloglovin icon, appear before all other icons and both link to a page on my website Retrace Travel

    I checked the Menu page but the Social Menu is still exactly as I configured it, I also checked my widgets but I have none installed in any of the footer/front page categories. I deleted the page from my websites but the superfluous icons are still there.

    Curiously though, they are visible not on one page of my website Front Page

    When I hover over the icons using Firebug it directs me to CSS:

    .social-links ul a::before {
    background: #f25f70 none repeat scroll 0 0;
    color: #fff;
    content: "";
    display: block;
    font-size: 2.5rem;
}

    I’ve tried disabling many different lines of CSS but I still can’t for the life of me figure out how to delete them!
    Would appreciate any wisdom!

    Looks like there’s some stray footer code up at the top of your page. Have you touched the Sela theme files at all? Moving the footer element somewhere else in the theme is likely going to have unintended consequences, as you’re seeing. Try undoing your theme changes and the issue should go away. Let me know how it goes.

    Also keep in mind that if you didn’t make a child theme, please be careful to make a backup of your files when you update the theme, as all your changes will be overwritten every time you update.

    The best way to make changes to a theme is to use a child theme, so your tweaks won’t be overwritten when updating the theme. Here are some guides in case you haven’t made one before:
