How to Add Your Social Media Icons to Your Wordpress Website
It's time for your daily dose of Wordpress Wisdom! Today we take a look at how to share your social media icons on your Wordpress website. Now, it's important to remember there are 2 different paths you can take when it comes to social media icons on your site. One route is to use social media icons that take your audience to YOUR social media pages, and the other is to use social media icons that allow your audience to SHARE your post to THEIR social media.
In today's lesson I'm showing you how to place YOUR social media icons on your website since there's already a built-in block inside the block editor for exactly that.

I would like to experience your class while I am in the future , Batman but didn’t anticipate some changes in our schedule. So, I don’t think I would experience you in the future Eric!
And I would be flying in a few days to be back to the normal time, giving up the futuristic state!
Cheers,

That's ok, Maria! That's what the replays are for! I hope you've had a fun time in the future!
Eric, I already know how to place my social media icons on my website. WordPress makes provision for that.
I am aware this is for newbies but could you go ahead and show me the two different paths to social media icons on a website as mentioned in your tutorial

Hi Eric, I just watched the video, all good. However do we put these icons in every post or just the main website etc?
You can place these wherever you like. If you want to end each post with your social icons or just place them on your homepage, you're in full control.
