Some how the social media Icons is not working. Even if the information is entered in the fields when clicked on each icon, nothing happens...
This is only happening in the Beat Slinger skin

Hello,

First, you'll want to enter the full URL in the skins settings.

Second, open your skins/n8BeatSlinger/footer.tpl and find this:

                    <li><a href="{$_conf.n8MSkinX_facebook_url}" class="social-facebook" target="_blank"></a></li>
                    <li><a href="{$_conf.n8MSkinX_twitter_url}" class="social-twitter" target="_blank"></a></li>
                    <li><a href="{$_conf.n8MSkinX_google_url}" class="social-google" target="_blank"></a></li>
                    <li><a href="{$_conf.n8MSkinX_linkedin_url}" class="social-linkedin" target="_blank"></a></li>
                    <li><a href="{$_conf.n8MSkinX_youtube_url}" class="social-youtube" target="_blank"></a></li>

and change it to this:

                    <li><a href="{$_conf.n8BeatSlinger_facebook_url}" class="social-facebook" target="_blank"></a></li>
                    <li><a href="{$_conf.n8BeatSlinger_twitter_url}" class="social-twitter" target="_blank"></a></li>
                    <li><a href="{$_conf.n8BeatSlinger_google_url}" class="social-google" target="_blank"></a></li>
                    <li><a href="{$_conf.n8BeatSlinger_linkedin_url}" class="social-linkedin" target="_blank"></a></li>
                    <li><a href="{$_conf.n8BeatSlinger_youtube_url}" class="social-youtube" target="_blank"></a></li>

We'll get the fix released soon.

Hope this helps!

Thank You for your help Douglas.
The below code with your advice made the trick and its working now.
<ul class="social clearfix">
                    <li><a href="https://facebook.com/{$_conf.n8BeatSlinger_facebook_url}" class="social-facebook" target="_blank"></a></li>
                    <li><a href="https://twitter.com/{$_conf.n8BeatSlinger_twitter_url}" class="social-twitter" target="_blank"></a></li>
                    <li><a href="https://plus.google.com/{$_conf.n8BeatSlinger_google_url}" class="social-google" target="_blank"></a></li>
                    <li><a href="https://linkedin.com/{$_conf.n8BeatSlinger_linkedin_url}" class="social-linkedin" target="_blank"></a></li>
                    <li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/{$_conf.n8BeatSlinger_youtube_url}" class="social-youtube" target="_blank"></a></li>
                </ul>
