# Social links

> List your social profiles once, and they show as icons in your site's footer.

Add your Instagram, Facebook and other profiles once, on the **Social Links** tab. They show as icons in your site's footer, and search engines can read them too.

&#x20;**Who can do this:** Editors, Admins and Owners.

## Open Social Links

* In the toolbar (the bar across the top of your site once you're signed in; see [The toolbar](https://docs.fetchski-attract.com/guides/get-started/toolbar-and-command-palette.md#the-toolbar)), choose **Site settings** (the gear), then the **Social Links** tab.
* Or open the command palette (⌘K, or Ctrl+K on Windows), choose **Site settings**, then **Social Links**. The shortcut for Site settings is T then G (press T, let go, then press G, while you're not typing in a box; see [Keyboard shortcuts](https://docs.fetchski-attract.com/guides/get-started/toolbar-and-command-palette.md#keyboard-shortcuts)).

The tab shows how many links you've added and an **Edit Social links** button. Choose it to open your list.

Your social profiles, listed once for the whole site.

## Add a profile

1. Choose **Edit Social links**.
2. Choose **Add Item**.
3. In **Platform**, choose the network, such as **Instagram** or **Facebook**. Each one gets its own brand icon.
4. In **Profile URL**, paste the full link to your profile, such as [https://instagram.com/parkerspuppyplayland](https://instagram.com/parkerspuppyplayland).
5. Repeat for each network you use.
6. Choose **Save** in the list window to keep the list, then choose **Update** to save everything and put your links live.

Add only the networks you use. A link shows on your site only once it has a URL.

## Each profile's settings

* **Platform**: the network. Choose from **Instagram**, **Facebook**, **X (Twitter)**, **YouTube**, **TikTok**, **LinkedIn**, **GitHub**, **Pinterest**, **WhatsApp**, **Snapchat**, **Threads**, **Bluesky**, **Mastodon**, **Yelp**, **Google**, **Spotify** and **Vimeo**. For anything else, choose **Other / custom…**.
* **Profile URL**: the full link to your profile. It's required.
* **Accessible label (optional)**: the name read aloud by screen readers (software that reads pages out for people who can't see them well). It also pops up as a small label when someone points at the icon. Leave it empty and the network's name is used, such as "Instagram".

With **Other / custom…**, two more settings appear:

* **Custom icon name**: the name of a Font Awesome icon, without "fa-".
* **Custom icon family**: the icon style. **Brands** is already chosen, which suits most networks.

For example, to add a Discord icon:

1. Go to [https://fontawesome.com/icons](https://fontawesome.com/icons) and search for "discord".
2. Choose the Discord logo. Its page shows the icon's name, "discord", and its style, Brands.
3. Type `discord` in **Custom icon name**, and keep **Brands** in **Custom icon family**.

For a custom network, fill in **Accessible label (optional)** too, so screen readers announce a clear name.

## Where your links show

* **In the footer.** Your links appear as a row of icons at the bottom of every page. Each one opens in a new tab.
* **In search engines.** When structured data is turned on, your links are shared with search engines as part of your business details. See [Site-wide SEO](https://docs.fetchski-attract.com/guides/site-settings/seo.md).

Your profiles as icons in the footer.

## Good to know

* **The footer has its own look settings.** Icon style, size, spacing, colors and where the row sits are in **Site design** → **Footer: Social**. See [Footer](https://docs.fetchski-attract.com/guides/site-design/footer.md).
* **Team members have their own links.** Each person's social links are set on their team member, not here. See [Team members](https://docs.fetchski-attract.com/guides/content/team-members.md).
* **Order matters.** Icons show in the order of your list. Drag a profile in the list to move it.
* **Nothing shows until you add a link.** A new site starts with an empty list, so no sample links appear on your site.
