Show a row of icons that link to your social profiles and your website.

A row of social link icons
  1. Click Add Social Links in the module bar. The Social Links window opens.
  2. Fill in the profiles you want to show. There are fields for Facebook, X, LinkedIn, Pinterest, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok and WhatsApp, plus Your own website URL.
  3. Click Update.

Only the fields you fill in become icons. Leave the rest empty.

You can type a link with or without https://, for example facebook.com/yourcompany or instagram.com/yourcompany. For WhatsApp, use the wa.me/ link with your number, for example wa.me/15551234567. If a value is not a web address, the field shows Invalid URL and the window stays open until you fix it.

People who open your shared link can click an icon to open that profile in a new tab.

  1. Click the module to select it.
  2. Click Add (the plus sign) on its toolbar. The Social Links window opens with your links.
  3. Change a link, or click the x next to a field to clear it.
  4. Click Update.

Position the icons

Select the module and use its toolbar:

  • Align: puts the row of icons on the left, in the centre or on the right of the module.
  • Adjust Vertical Alignment: Align to Top, Align to Middle or Align to Bottom. This shows when the module is taller than the icons, so drag a corner handle down first.
  • Background: colours or an image behind the module. See Add a module background.
