    Hi,

    I would like to have Social Icons and links in the Footer area, not at the very bottom in the Socket.
    I would also like to add a Stemmit social media icon, or know how to add social icons not currently on your list.
    I don’t understand how to do any of this in the widgts. There is a text box, but no place to put links.

    I would also like to add a Disclaimer link, Privacy policy, and a Terms and Conditions link to the footer area.
    I saw that one suggestion is to create a new menu and put it in the socket, but again I would prefer it to be in the footer area. There is too much information if there is Tems & Con, Disclaimer, Privacy and a bunch of social media icons.

    With thanks

    Hey violin12,

    Here is some theory.

    Change the Footer text and Link

    Yo can add those links like a footer menu. Create the menu and add it to the footer.

    Best regards,
    Victoria

    So how do I add Social Icons to the Footer area, not the Socket?

    And is it possible to add an link or Icon to Steemit Social Platform?

    Hi!

    Victoria’s first link should be able to help you. Were you able to try it?
    http://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-add-and-use-widgets-in-wordpress/

    Yes, it is possible to add a link in a widget. :)

    Please let us know if you need help understanding the links that Victoria provided. Thank you!

    Best regards,

    Yes, thank you I did read the link.
    I still don’t understand how to add in social icons… Sorry, if this is obvious to you…! but I don’t see that option. The only option that seems possible is the Menu one. So I feel no clearer as to how to put in Social Icons

    Stick that code in a text box
    You will need to alter to suit

    Need others?
    Add appropriate icon to a dummy page …with proper links etc
    Save page
    Open in Browser window
    View the source code
    Copy the span section
    …and you got it

    <span class="av_font_icon avia_animate_when_visible av-icon-style-  avia-icon-pos-left " style="color:#ffffff; border-color:#ffffff;">
<a href='http://facebook.com/WHATEVER'  target="_blank"   class='av-icon-char' style='font-size:20px;line-height:20px;' aria-hidden='true' data-av_icon='' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello' ></a>
</span>
<span class="av_font_icon avia_animate_when_visible av-icon-style-  avia-icon-pos-left " style="color:#ffffff; border-color:#ffffff;">

    Thank you so very much!
    I was sure that there wasn’t a widgit for social icons, or at least I couldn’t figure it out. Feeling less stupid now.

    Thanks again
    May your website be a success.
