 * Hi
    I am getting the following validation errors
 * Error: Attribute heateor-sss-data-href not allowed on element div at this point.
   
   Error: Attribute alt not allowed on element i at this point. Error: Element ss
   not allowed as child of element a in this context. (Suppressing further errors
   from this subtree.)
 * the alt and ss errors just repeat for each social icon
 * Is this something I can avoid or is there a workaround available that doesn’t
   involve losing my pretty hovering buttons 🙂
    Thank you
 * I am using version 3.3.2 on WordPress 5.7

 * We will take care of these in the upcoming updates. You should not worry about
   these as these do not affect the performance of your website.
