Whenever I view my exported website in the browser via MAMP, I have noticed that the social media icons that I have displayed in the footer of my page do not show up. They show up when I open the webpage normally, but when I use the testing server, they fail to show. Everything else shows up. Why is this?

Where are the images located and how do you have them linked?
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

The social media icons are not images. I just used the default social media div on RLMP.

CC is using a content tag in the css that grabs from the predefined numbers for the images that are actually part of the fonts. You can replace them with your own.

Okay, but this doesn't explain why they are not showing up when I use MAMP.

I'm not familiar with that hosting app. Maybe somebody else on here has used it and can provide some insight.
Did you link them in RLM?
