Homepage social icons too big

[netotz]

Using the socialIcons setting of params renders big icons:

This is the site that I'm rendering: https://github.com/netotz/netotz.github.io

Right now the source code doesn't include the social icons because of it looks.

@netotz I just tried to reproduce it locally by cloning in a fresh copy of the theme. The css which sets height and width of an icon is present here and it seems to be getting applied as expected.

1. Please double check that you've configured the social icons exactly as described in the "Icons " section of documentation :)
2. If it still doesn't work, please share your config.toml file (specifically the part where you're configuring socialIcons config param) and I'll be happy to help!

I doubled check the documentation and this is the relevant section of config.toml, still doesn't work:

[params]
    socialIcons = [
        {name = "github", url = "https://github.com/netotz"},
        {name = "linkedin", url = "https://www.linkedin.com/in/netotz/"},
    ]

I noticed something odd. This site is being published to GitHub Pages with GitHub Actions. The published site has the latest dark theme color, but not my local render when I run hugo serve as you can see in the posted image above, so it's not using the latest version of Gokarna although I already updated the submodule. I think the issue is related to this, but I don't know why Hugo is not using the latest version of the theme. Have you seen this or similar before with Hugo?

@netotz That is odd. I would suggest:

1. Try opening the site in private or incognito mode in your browser.

2. Run hugo mod clean which deletes module cache for the current project and build the project again

3. If the above steps do not work then clone a fresh copy of your repository to see if that works.

4. Lastly you could maybe check network tab of your browser to see if static resources (specifically main.css in this case) are being correctly loaded or not.

@526avijitgupta running hugo mod clean worked. Thanks! Issue solved :)

By the way, if I want to keep using the previous dark background, which files should I edit? I don't want to edit the files of the Gokarna theme because it's a git submodule, so I wonder if there's a parameter to set a custom background color in dark mode.
