Here's what you'll be able do:

2. Transfer the LinkedIn icon image to your theme's assets folder. You'll be able get to this envelope within the Shopify admin under Online Store > Themes > Actions > Edit Code.

This worked for me - but just one more thing I wanted to know is - how to make the icon colour to white?
After adding the code, by default the icon is coming as black.
Hi, @made4Uo...
This solution seems to work as the link is there, but the icon is not visible on the black footer background.
How can I change color to white? It is ignoring the footer CSS that style other icons on the page.
Thanks for any further advice. 🙂
Hi @Leener
Please add the code below to your base.css file under the Asset folder. If the code below does not work, please provide your website.
.list-social__item path {
fill: white
}
Hello Made4Uo,
I have tried to find <ul class="footer__list-social list-unstyled list-social">, but it appears I don't have that in my code, possibly due to an upgrade to the latest version. In the attachment you can find a screenshot of it. What should I do now?
Warmest,
Lieke
Thanks so much, this worked great, could you please help with the code to add TikTok in the same way?

Hello! I tried your solution and it added a field in my theme settings, but the icon doesn’t appear on my website.. can you help me? Thanks!
Hi, did you solve this issue? I am trying to solve it, but I couldn't. I have exactly same issue.
Adding a LinkedIn Icon to your Shopify Theme:
1. Accessing the Theme Code:
Go to your Shopify admin panel.
Navigate to "Online Store" and then "Themes".
Select "Actions" and choose "Edit code" for your desired theme.
2. Adding the LinkedIn Link:
Locate the file named "Social-icons.liquid" within the theme code.
Copy and paste the following code snippet at an appropriate location within the file:
HTML
{%- if settings.social_linkedin_link != blank -%}
<li class="list-social__item">
<a href="{{ settings.social_linkedin_link }}" target="_blank" class="link list-social__link">
{%- render 'icon-linkedin' -%}
<span class="visually-hidden">Linked In</span>
</a>
</li>
{%- endif -%}
Use code with caution.
3. Enabling the LinkedIn Link Setting:
Open the file named "settings-schema.json".
Find the section labeled "settings_schema.social-media.name".
Copy and paste the following schema within that section:
JSON
{
"type": "text",
"id": "social_linkedin_link",
"label": "Linked In "
}
Use code with caution.
4. Saving and Checking:
Save both the "Social-icons.liquid" and "settings-schema.json" files.
Preview your theme to ensure the LinkedIn icon is displayed correctly.
Important Note:
Editing theme code requires caution. Consider making a backup of your theme files before proceeding.
The provided code snippet assumes an existing function named "render 'icon-linkedin'" that displays the LinkedIn icon. You might need to adjust this part depending on your specific theme.
