Frequently asked questions
Are the changes applied immediately?
Yes. Once you save the changes, the icons appear on your website within a few seconds. There's no need to republish or wait.
Can I change the profiles later?
Yes. You can come back to this page at any time to update, add, or remove social networks.
What happens if I enter an incorrect URL?
The system does not validate that the URLs are correct or that the profiles exist. If you enter an incorrect URL, the icon will appear on your site but the link won't work or will lead to an error page. Always check that the URLs are correct before saving.
Can I customize the order of the icons?
Currently the order is predefined. The icons appear in the same order in which they are configured in the panel.
Why don't I see this option?
If you don't see the social networks page or a "Restricted Access" message appears:
- Verify that your plan includes social network customization (Website, Pro+, Business)
- Plans with Legacy Hosting do not have access to this feature
- Consider upgrading to a current plan
Do the links open in a new tab?
Yes. All social media links open in a new browser tab, so visitors don't leave your site.
