# Social media

Add social sharing buttons to product pages and connect your store's social media accounts.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Theme Editor → Theme settings → Social media**
{% endhint %}

This settings page covers two separate features that work independently:

* **Social sharing options** — let customers share individual products on their social profiles
* **Social accounts** — display your store's social media icons in the footer or sidebar

***

### Social sharing — Share buttons on product pages

Enable the platforms you want to offer, then add the **Share** block to your product template to make them visible.

**Available platforms:** Facebook, Twitter/X, Pinterest, Line, Share by link

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**Step 1 — Enable sharing in Theme settings**

Go to **Theme settings → Social media** and toggle on the platforms you want to show.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Step 2 — Add the Share block to the product template**

1. Open **Theme Editor → Default product** (or any product template)
2. Inside **Product overview**, click **Add block → Share**
3. Save
   {% endstep %}
   {% endstepper %}

***

### Social accounts — Store icons in footer or sidebar

Add the URLs for your store's social profiles. The icons appear wherever you place the **Social media** block in your layout — typically in the footer or the Main sidebar.

{% hint style="success" icon="sparkles" %}
**Supported platforms:** Instagram, Twitter/X, TikTok, Snapchat, Pinterest, Tumblr, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, Vimeo, Reddit, Trustpilot, Tripadvisor, Telegram, Line, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Discord, Spotify.
{% endhint %}

**WhatsApp**, **Facebook Messenger**, **Discord** and **Spotify** are account links like every other field in this group — they open your chat, server or artist page. They are not share buttons, so they have nothing to do with the Share block above. Paste the full URL:

| Field                  | Example                                   |
| ---------------------- | ----------------------------------------- |
| **WhatsApp**           | `https://wa.me/shopify`                   |
| **Facebook Messenger** | `https://m.me/shopify`                    |
| **Discord**            | `https://discord.com/shopify`             |
| **Spotify**            | `https://open.spotify.com/artist/shopify` |

To display the icons, add the **Social media** block to any section that supports it (e.g., Main sidebar, Footer).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://staylime.com/docs/avante-themes/theme-settings/social-media.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
