  1. I have a weird situation going on here (weird to me), hopefully you know right away what the issue is.

    I followed the simple social tutorial for essence pro v1.4 theme but they only show up when I activate visual hooks guide and action hooks. They show up near the bottom left of the screen. When I clear visual hooks guide the icons disappear. I also have a language switcher in there. The search form does not show up in any case.

    I will mention that I have also followed the tutorial for soliloquy which might be hiding it.

    Hopefully you can help. I can send you screenshots, give you ftp and/or login info whatever you need.

    You will need to login just to view so I will send that info upon request.

    thanks in advance,

    John
