Header contact slideout icon – change to text? (Cardinal)

[lbdesign]

I am using header version 6. I like the slideout contact page feature, but the built-in envelope icon is not appropriate for this site. I’d rather be able to use text/words as the link that activates the slideout. Can you give me the code changes that would enable me to write a few words of text in place of the envelope icon?

thank you

Hi,

Check inside the file in cardinal/swift-framework/core/sf-header.php

 $contact_icon = apply_filters( 'sf_header_contact_icon', '<i class="ss-mail"></i>' );

by your content

 $contact_icon = apply_filters( 'sf_header_contact_icon', 'My Words' );

I altered this line, and put it in a folder in the child theme, nested within folders with names that match the main theme. Nothing changed. Is it impossible to do this to the child theme?

hi,
Please paste full code at functions.php of child theme.

function sf_header_aux($aux) {
			
			global $sf_options;

			$show_cart = $sf_options['show_cart'];
			$show_wishlist = $sf_options['show_wishlist'];
			$header_left_config = $sf_options['header_left_config'];
			$header_right_config = $sf_options['header_right_config'];
			$header_left_text = __($sf_options['header_left_text'], 'swiftframework');
			$header_right_text = __($sf_options['header_right_text'], 'swiftframework');
			$fullwidth_header = $sf_options['fullwidth_header'];
			$contact_icon = apply_filters( 'sf_header_contact_icon', 'My Words' );
			
			if ($aux == "left") {
				$header_left_output = "";
				if ($header_left_config == "social") {
				$header_left_output .= do_shortcode('[social]'). "\n";
				} else if ($header_left_config == "aux-links") {
				$header_left_output .= sf_aux_links('header-menu', TRUE, "header-1"). "\n";
				} else if ($header_left_config == "overlay-menu") {
				$header_left_output .= '<a href="#" class="overlay-menu-link"><span>'.__("Menu", "swiftframework").'</span></a>'. "\n";
				} else if ($header_left_config == "contact") {
				$header_left_output .= '<a href="#" class="contact-menu-link">'.$contact_icon.'</a>'. "\n";
				} else if ($header_left_config == "search") {
				$header_left_output .= '<nav class="std-menu">'. "\n";			
				$header_left_output .= '<ul class="menu">'. "\n";
				$header_left_output .= sf_get_search('aux');
				$header_left_output .= '</ul>'. "\n";			
				$header_left_output .= '</nav>'. "\n";
				} else {
				$header_left_output .= '<div class="text">'.do_shortcode($header_left_text).'</div>'. "\n";
				}
				return $header_left_output;
			} else if ($aux == "right") {
				$header_right_output = "";
				if ($header_right_config == "social") {
				$header_right_output .= do_shortcode('[social]'). "\n";
				} else if ($header_right_config == "aux-links") {
				$header_right_output .= sf_aux_links('header-menu', TRUE, "header-1"). "\n";
				} else if ($header_right_config == "overlay-menu") {

				} else if ($header_right_config == "search") {
				$header_right_output .= '<nav class="std-menu">'. "\n";			
				$header_right_output .= '<ul class="menu">'. "\n";
				$header_right_output .= sf_get_search('aux');
				$header_right_output .= '</li>'. "\n";
				$header_right_output .= '</ul>'. "\n";			
				$header_right_output .= '</nav>'. "\n";
				} else {
				$header_right_output .= '<div class="text">'.do_shortcode($header_right_text).'</div>'. "\n";
				}
				return $header_right_output;
			}

[MeineLiebe]

hello. would it also be possible to load a small picture of a custom icon ?

[lbdesign]

Being able to change the graphic would also be a great solution. I actually think I’d prefer that more.

[Rui Guerreiro – SUPPORT]

Yes, it’s possible, Use the code below instead.

 $contact_icon = '<img src="http:://www.yoursite.com/image.png">';
