Adding social media icons to your email

If you would like to add links to your social media accounts in your email, we've made it simple. 

Step 1: Open the email you'd like to edit, and navigate to the Layout tab in the left panel. 

Step 2: Drag and drop the "Social" element from the left panel to the spot you'd like it in your email. As you hover over your email, the places where you can drop the element will turn teal. 

Step 3: This will open the Social settings in the left panel. If you want add or remove any of the icons, just click the icon. If you add a social media site other than Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, or YouTube, add the url to your account in the field next to the icon. You can also change the color/style of the icons, the spacing between icons, or the size of the icons using the controls in the left panel. 

Step 4: These icons will automatically link to the social media urls you've added to your profile. If you haven't already, hover over your name in the upper right corner of your account, and click "Edit My Profile." Click on the Social Media tab to ensure your urls are added and up to date! 

If you're using an email template with social media icons included, simply click on the element or container to edit them. You can use the same steps as above to edit, add, or remove a social media icon.
