Hello,

It's recommended to disable the Joomla editor in Global configuration before editing the social icons module. Some Joomla editors can cut off the icons code. This module is named "Social Icons". When you open it in HTML mode it looks like this:
Code:
Social <a href="http://twitter.com/hot_themes"><i class="fa fa-twitter"></i></a><a href="http://www.facebook.com/hotthemes"><i class="fa fa-facebook"></i></a><a href="https://plus.google.com/b/101865138405372995937/101865138405372995937/posts"><i class="fa fa-google-plus"></i></a><a href="http://www.linkedin.com/company/hotthemes"><i class="fa fa-linkedin"></i></a>

You can edit the social links in the code directly. Just change:
Code:
http://twitter.com/hot_themes http://www.facebook.com/hotthemes https://plus.google.com/b/101865138405372995937/101865138405372995937/posts http://www.linkedin.com/company/hotthemes

To remove a social icon, simply remove its link, in example to remove Google+ remove this part:
Code:
<a href="https://plus.google.com/b/101865138405372995937/101865138405372995937/posts"><i class="fa fa-google-plus"></i></a>

Thanks,
Milos

Hello,

If you already opened this module with WYSIWYG editor enabled, the contents might be damaged. So, first, disable the editor in the global configuration of Joomla and then open the module again. Copy the HTML code I gave you above, paste it, modify it per instructions I gave you above, and save it.

Thanks,
Milos
