How to hide the social icons when in mobile

Topic summary

A user running Dawn 10.0 encountered an issue where social icons in the header were shifting vertically on mobile devices and needed to be hidden.

Initial Problem:

  • Social icons displayed incorrectly in mobile view
  • CSS code targeting @media screen and (min-width: 990px) failed to hide the icons
  • The media query was incorrect for mobile targeting

Attempted Solutions:

  • Another user suggested using @media screen and (max-width: 1205px) with .list-social__item { display: none; }
  • Adding !important to the display property was recommended
  • Modifying the component-list-social.css file directly was also suggested

Resolution:
The original poster solved the problem independently by wrapping the social icons in a <div> and applying a mobile-specific hide class, rather than relying solely on CSS media queries. The discussion concluded successfully with this workaround.

I am using dawn 10.0 and I have put the social icons in the header. The problem is they shift vertically in mobile mode.

I already have put the following in base.css but it is not hiding the icons

@media screen and (min-width: 990px) {
.header-list-social.list-social {
display: none !important;
}
}

Here is the header file

Hello,

This is the css code you need.

@media screen and (max-width: 1025px) {
  .list-social__item {
    display: none;
  }
}

Let me know!

No that code does not work. ( I placed it in base.css at the bottom)

Mhh, for me is working, can you open it in incognito window to check?

If not, add !important after de style.

@media screen and (max-width: 1025px) {
  .list-social__item {
    display: none !important;
  }
}

Let me know!

If that does not work.

Find the component-list-social.css and add it at the bottom.

None of that worked either however I was able to figure it out. I had to wrap it in a

then add the hide on mobile class.

Glad you solve it :slightly_smiling_face:
