    Hi Ronald. If you are using the Symbiostock Express theme, you can add a footer section to your site using the steps outlined here:

    http://www.symbiostock.org/forums/topic/some-symbiostock-express-questions/#post-23189

    When you are adding widgets to your footer column, you need to add the SymbiostockExpress: Social Links widget to one of your footer columns. With the SymbiostockExpress: Social Links widget you can add links to various social media pages and you can add a title such as ‘Follow Us’ to this section. Your social media links will show up as a link icons the way it does on the Symbiostock Express demo site.

    Thanks Dawn, Robin,

    I already have the follow us icons in the footer. This part of the tutorial should be included in “Replicating the Symbiostock Express Demo Site” docs.

    Could you help me to implement share icons for each article?

    Something like this (share on Facebook, email to a friend, pin on Pinterest, etc):

    Since you’re referring to my site, this was part of the theme I’m using. But there are several third party plugins that can achieve the same, I’m sure. Just do a search for “WordPress social sharing plugins” and you’ll find many available options.

    Thanks Redneck, Could you tell me which plugin you have or which theme you use? This way I can ask Robin or Dawn to install it in my site.

    With my Symbiostock option I can not install plugins by myself.

    As I mentioned, I’m using a theme I’ve purchased. I don’t think anybody else is going to install an additional theme that needs to be paid for.

    Are you using a self hosted WP or are you on the Symbiostock Plus?

    If you’re using a self hosted WP you can find several plugins.

    After doing extensive testing, we’ve installed the best premium Social sharing plugin we could find with a lot of internal tweaks and customizations. You can see it live here:

    It’s really pretty cool – thanks for pressing for this Ronald. You can add it via the plugins menu now.

    FYI, I am aware that the icons are not showing up on some sites – working on it.
