Social profile links with a flexible presentation
Social Media Icon Widget Premium is designed for WordPress websites that need a clear, customizable way to display social profile links. It places social media icons in sidebars, footers, posts, and page layouts through a sidebar widget and an optimized Gutenberg block.
The plugin focuses on presenting profile links rather than adding a larger social sharing toolbar. Its lightweight SVG icons are intended to remain sharp across screen sizes, while the responsive grid adjusts the icon arrangement for mobile devices. The paid edition expands the available network selection and adds more styling and layout options.
Premium capabilities
- 30+ Pro social networks: connect visitors with a broader range of social and communication platforms.
- Three layout styles: choose from three distinct ways to arrange the icon list.
- Advanced color controls: use advanced color pickers and set custom icon and background colors.
- Hover color options: apply custom background and icon colors when visitors hover over an icon.
- 60+ hover animations: add visual feedback with effects including 2D, curl, and glow styles.
- 3D transform rotations: apply more than ten rotation effects for a different visual treatment.
- Multiple icon sizes: adjust the scale of icons to suit the surrounding design.
- Priority email and forum support: the Premium feature list includes these support options.
Useful placement options
You can add the widget to a sidebar area using drag and drop, or insert social profile links directly into a page layout with the Gutenberg block. This makes the plugin suitable for business websites, portfolios, personal sites, publications, and other projects that want social links to remain visible without taking over the page.
Use the available layout and styling controls to coordinate the icon list with your site. Column settings, spacing controls, colors, hover behavior, and icon sizes help you create a compact row, a wider grid, or another arrangement supported by the selected layout. Links can also be configured to open in new tabs.
Supported networks and contact links
The source feature list includes Facebook, X (Twitter), Instagram, YouTube, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Snapchat, TikTok, Tumblr, Flickr, Vimeo, Reddit, RSS Feed, Email, WhatsApp, and Telegram. The Premium edition adds more than the listed networks, giving you additional choices for connecting visitors with your online profiles and contact channels.
Installation and setup
Install the Social Media Icon Widget Premium plugin in your WordPress site, then add its widget to a sidebar area or insert its Gutenberg block into a page or post. Configure the available profile links, select the desired networks, and adjust the layout, colors, spacing, hover effects, and icon sizes. Preview the result on desktop and mobile views, then save the configuration when the presentation matches your site.
The plugin is intended to work with WordPress themes and provides its core controls without requiring code for routine styling changes.
