Let visitors discover your brand across social media platforms by adding social icons to your website. Here's how to do it effectively:

Quick Steps to Add Social Icons:

1. Open the "Social Media Links" panel
2. Enter the profile URL or email in the "Add a social media or email link" field
3. Press Enter
4. Repeat for additional platforms

Location of Social Icons:

• Version 7.1: Always in site header
• Version 7.0: Varies by template
• Social Media Links block: Can be placed anywhere
• Homepage: Available on all layouts

Managing Your Icons:

• Reorder: Drag and drop within the panel
• Show/Hide: Toggle visibility in icon settings
• Delete: Select icon > Click Delete > Confirm
• Style: Customize through the Design panel

Supported Platforms Include:

• Social Networks: Facebook, Instagram, X (Twitter), LinkedIn, Pinterest
• Video Platforms: YouTube, TikTok, Twitch, Vimeo
• Music Services: Spotify, SoundCloud, Apple Podcasts
• Professional: Behance, GitHub, Medium
• And many more, including Discord, Reddit, Yelp, and VSCO

Tips:

• Use complete profile URLs (e.g., http://instagram.com/yourname)
• Custom URLs will show a generic link icon
• Email addresses display an email icon
• Changes affect all icons across your site
• Icons appear left to right in most templates (right to left in Flatiron)

For non-recognized platforms, a standard link icon appears. Email addresses automatically display an email icon. All changes made to social icons apply site-wide for consistency.
