2sxc Blog : How to change social media icons - 2sxc

How to restrict non-admin users from making any kind of modifications to blog content, post or remove blog?
How to change the images for social media icons in blog list item? There are in build images for social media.

I believe the Blog App 3.03 uses AddThis. See App.Settings. You need to go setup an account on AddThis, then get the URL with your 'key' saved in the settings. Then you configure things on the AddThis site for your project; which shares to include.

welcome to StackOverflow :)
#Accuraty-Jeremy is right - as of now, it just uses AddThis. You can try to customize that, or create your own share-feature as you want, since the html-source is there, ready for editing.

Cannot set social links in Wordpress

I am new to Wordpress and I want to set up my personal website, I am using a Theme and there is a part says as the image I attached, I want to find the social links part but I failed, I reference some videos and they said there is a Theme Options section has the social links, but I do not have a Theme Options. Are there any ideas to find the social links part?
Thank you,
Haha I found it!It is under the "Web Page Design".

Is http://www.shoutmeloud.com/videos a separate website?

I just wondering whether http://www.shoutmeloud.com/videos is a subdomain under subdirectory?
I am just curious to know how we can do that.
I have a website called http://quantumbuddy.com/ and I want to share spirtual video the same way here shoutmeloud did.
Can anyone let me know how they did?
The website Shoutmeloud is a very popular website of a very popular Indian blogger Harsh Agarwal. The website is WordPress built as told by him many times. Regarding your question - the http://www.shoutmeloud.com/videos is not a directory because if it had been a WordPress directly there would be a login url - http://www.shoutmeloud.com/videos/wp-login.php, but it is not there.
Seeing the design of http://www.shoutmeloud.com/videos i think it is a post category (videos) which shows the post contained in it(here videos).
In wordpress this comes by default, all you have to do is to create a post category and add post in it. Then in these post add youtube videos embed code.
You can easily achieve that by going to your wordpress dashboard then add a new page and name it like videos then insert some video files there whether it's a link or from your uploaded videos then save it.
To check the page, Add it to your main menu for example then save it.
The url would be like http://quantumbuddy.com/videos.
so basically the videos is the name of the page.
I checked your site and it only contain one link in the menu. Add a page and add it to your menu bar and it would display next to the Blog link.
The website you are referring to is using Genesis Theme. You can find it here

blog cover image thats not in the blog post

I've been asked to integrate a blog into an existing website.
The blog content will be hosted with an external blog provider (im thinking wordpress and blogger) and I would then import the posts onto the clients site via an ATOM feed as this is the simplest way I can see of doing all this.
The issue I'm facing is that when the blog list is displayed on the clients site they want to use a grid based layout with a cover image. Another stipulation of the design is that the cover image should also not be part of the actual blog post content.
Ideally it would be great if the blogging provider (wordpress/blogger) supported uploading additional metadata and images that do not go into the blog post's HTML content.
I cant find any way of doing this currently and am wondering if I have any options other than rolling my own mini blogging platform for the client or installing wordpress locally and setting that up.
Any ideas?
WordPress will let you upload a custom header image. See: http://codex.wordpress.org/Custom_Headers - this will be useful if you want the same header image on every page. If you want a different header image 'per post' then you'll need a plugin to do that. There are some good plugins that do that in the WP plugin repo: http://wordpress.org/plugins/

Drupal image galley for every blog post and social links

I am working on Drupal 7 and my client wants to have image gallery in blog they post. Is there a simple module which does that. I have tried many modules but none worked as the way i wanted it to be.
Also i want a another module which enables registered user to have their own social links, for eg facebook and twitter. Thanks for your help.
There is almost always a module for that - https://drupal.org/project/galleryformatter will let you create a content field that is an image gallery. It looks like it is pretty flexible.
To allow users to have social media links in their profile checkout https://drupal.org/project/follow.

Image gallery in wordpress

Is it possible to create an image gallery in wordpress that is managed by the admin via it's own page / panel. I am not talking about creating a new post and adding custom html for each image. I mean actually having a page in the admin that has the ability to upload and manage your images?
If it is possible how do you go about creating a custom page like this? I understand the PHP side of uploading and manipulating images, but I don't know how to integrate it with wordpress. I don't need a full blow tutorial on how to do this, but if you could just point me in the right direction that would be great.
One issue that comes to mind right away, is if this is possible would upgrading wordpress break the code? Since I assume you have to edit the admin files directly and you can't just do it from your own custom template?
From playing around I found NextGEN Gallery (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/nextgen-gallery/) that has a tab in your admin panel. It looks like it would meet your needs.
You can manage all your media from the WordPress Media Library using tags if you install Tag Gallery
It requires the Media Tags plugin but it makes managing galleries so much easier and your using the built in media facilities of WordPress so it's not disjoint from the experience. There is a new version in the works that will offer much more impressive functionality as well.
Hope that helps.
There are a huge amount of image galleries for wordpress already made. Have a quick google for some (search "wordpress image gallery") and see if any of them are suitable (I'll be surprised if one of them isn't).
Failing that, you'll need to create yourself a Wordpress Plugin.
I've integrated ZenPhoto into my wordpress blog. It was pretty easy, would probably take you a few hours. The admin pages are completely separate from the wordpress admin pages, so you can easily give access to only one person.
You can create a custom post type called Gallery to manage create and manage image galleries. The post will have its own "Gallery" panel in the admin section and from there you can add new galleries just as you describe. There are lost of tutorials for creating gallery custom post types.
