Footer social media links not working

Topic summary

Social Media Links Issue:

  • Needs help removing unwanted social media icons like Tumblr, Snapchat, and Pinterest (circled in red)
  • Wants to link only YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook but cannot figure out how to selectively display/remove icons

Hello, in the images above are two of my concerns in regards of setting up social media on the footer part of the website, as well as changing the favicon.

Image 1: This image shows 2 circled items, the white circle is what I like to keep in my footer and the red circle is what I’d like to remove and need help in doing so thank you. And I’d like to know how I could link my yt channel, instagram, tiktok and facebook in the footer where the social media icons are shown (in the white circle), but I can’t seem to get rid of the other social media icons that I won’t be using, such as tumblr, snapchat, pinterest etc.

Image 2: The favicon next to the red scribbles, I would like to change. I tried changing it by going to Shopify admin > store > customise theme > edit themes > logos > favicons and changed the image in it but it still doesn’t work.

Thank you.
