Topic summary

A Shopify store owner encountered duplicate brand information columns in their footer, with an unwanted column appearing on the right side.

Root Cause:

  • The duplicate originated from the footer’s “Show social media icons” setting, which was enabled in the theme customization.

Solutions Provided:

Multiple community members offered CSS-based fixes involving:

  • Adding custom CSS code to theme.liquid before the </head> or </body> tags
  • Using display: none to hide the duplicate social media list element

Resolution:

  • The cleanest solution was simply disabling the “Show social media icons” setting in the Footer section through Shopify’s theme customization interface (Online Store → Theme Customization → Footer).
  • The original poster confirmed this approach worked and marked it as the accepted solution.

Note: The conversation includes screenshots demonstrating the issue and solution steps, though some text appears reversed/encoded in the original posts.
