Its your themes mistake.. = How can i integrate the **<?php wp_footer(); ?>** and **<?php wp_head(); ?>** to my theme if it is not present on my theme? = It can be easily done.. Just to go Theme Editor which is under apperance and select footer.php and add **<?php wp_footer(); ?>** before the closing body tag which is **** and then go and edit header.php and add **<?php wp_head(); ?>** just before the closing head tag which is **** = Can i disable the automated integration and place where ever i want? = Yes, You can..

Right now we have themes like, 1,2,3,4.... If you want to show icons with Theme # 5, You can use the shortcode **[DISPLAY_ACURAX_ICONS theme="5"]** Here we using the attribute **"theme"** to define the theme number (Make sure you use the available theme numbers, You can see the theme numbers on plugin settings page) If you want to show the icons with a custom size 50px.. you can use the shortcode **[DISPLAY_ACURAX_ICONS size="50"]** Here we using the attribute **"size"** to define the icon size (Make Sure you specifying size which is not more than "55" which is the maximum icon support of this plugin, **DO NOT ADD px**, Just Add the Size in Numerical) So if you use a shortcode **[DISPLAY_ACURAX_ICONS theme="10" size="45"]** It will show the Social Media Icon with Icon Theme 10 and Icon size will be 45px width and height. = How can i use the plugin widgets? = Plugin Support Social Media Widget with almost same features of the shortcodes, You can have **many number of widgets where on each widget you can configure the Social Media Icons size and Icon Design/Style**.
