You should not put your code inside the

div class=“author”

Try putting the social-icons div below the author div close tag

 <div class="author">
          <div class="social-icons">
            <a href="https://www.facebook.com/freecodecamp"></a>
             <a href="https://twitter.com/freecodecamp"></a>
             <a href="https://instagram.com/freecodecamp"></a>
             <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/school/free-code-camp"></a>
             <a href="https://www.youtube.com/freecodecamp"></a>
          </div>          
          <p class="author-name">
Thanks
