Twitter/x logo does not appear on the About page after adding the x_username

[dua-arpit]

Hi, I saw that there is an option to add the x_username. I added that, but I don't see that doing anything on the About page. Is the functionality for the Twitter logo/link to appear at the bottom of the About page not already built in? I thought I'd ask before tweaking anything

I also checked social.liquid. It already has the lines

{% if site.x_username %}
  <a href="https://twitter.com/{{ site.x_username }}" title="X"><i class="fa-brands fa-x-twitter"></i></a>
{% endif %}

Does this happens locally or on the online version? If this happens with the online version, you have to wait for the build action to finish in your GitHub repo.

Are you using the latest version of our code? Can you share your code?
Also, try to access your site on a incognito window.

Yes, it seems to be the latest version. I tried the incognito window and it does not show.

For the code, I only defined the variable x_username in _config.yml. I see the following lines in social.liquid, which uses the x_username variable.

{% if site.x_username %}
  <a href="https://twitter.com/{{ site.x_username }}" title="X"><i class="fa-brands fa-x-twitter"></i></a>
{% endif %}

Do you want me to share the complete code?

Just tested the latest version of our code by adding this:

x_username: HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN # your X handle

Which got me this:

Maybe you did some other changes that affected this behavior.

Just checked your code. You should put your user before the comments on the line, meaning before the # and after the :. Everything on the lines after the # are comments and are ignored by the build.
