Girlie Theme Social Media

[Samantha]

Hi! I have a couple of quetsions about sharing for social media:
1. How do I create the “follow me” sharing buttons in the foot?
2. How do I link my Instagram account?
3. What plugin works best with this theme to have sharing buttons beneath all of my blog posts?

Thank you!!

Hi Sam,

What theme do you have?

Here is the code for social media buttons:
http://sktthemesdemo.net/documentation/skt-white-doc/#social-icons

For example: Short Codes (see FB = facebook / twitter / linkedin etc) where “#” is at is where you put your html URL for that social media page. Example if your fb page is URL: http://www.facebook.com/eggsperience thats what you put between the ” ” and save.

[social_area]
[social icon=”facebook” link=”#”]
[social icon=”twitter” link=”#”]
[social icon=”linkedin” link=”#”]
[social icon=”google-plus” link=”#”]
[social icon=”instagram” link=”#”]
[social icon=”youtube” link=”#”]
[social icon=”pinterest-p” link=”#”]
[social icon=”rss” link=”#”]
[/social_area]

What about for the live Instagram feed? I can’t figure out how to just link it to whatever is the latest in my Instagram feed. Do you know how to do that?

[Samantha]

Also, when I do that coding for the social media, I’m getting a 404 error from Bluehost. Help!!!

Here is your Instagram code:

[social icon=”instagram” link=”#”]

I have that button working. I’m talking about having a live feed streaming from Instagram. Does that make sense?

[Valerie]

Oh like you want a live feed of IG photos on page? Similar to what some do for Twitter live feeds?

I’m not sure how to do for IG but I bet it is similar to adding like twitter feed. What this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4a1cR34OGMU

The video is for widgets in the footer but you can use the code for anywhere.

OKay, I figured that out. Thank you so much!!
