Adding custom social media icons to your Squarespace website is a great way to connect with your audience and promote your brand. There are a few different ways to do this, and the method you choose will depend on your specific needs.
One way to add custom social media icons to Squarespace is by using the Social Links Block. This block allows you to add links to your social media profiles, and you can customize the icons that are displayed. To add the Social Links Block, simply click on the “+” sign in the Block Editor and select the “Social Links” option from the menu.
Another way to add custom social media icons to Squarespace is by using HTML. This method requires a bit more code, but it gives you more control over the appearance of your icons.
To add social media icons using HTML, you’ll need to first create an image that contains all of the icons you want to use. Once you have your image, upload it to an online image hosting service like Imgur or Photobucket.
Once you’ve uploaded your image, copy the URL and paste it into the code below. Be sure to replace “IMAGE URL” with the actual URL of your image. After that, simply copy and paste the code into the Custom CSS section of your Squarespace website.
#social-icons {
background-image: url("IMAGE URL");
}
If you want to take things a step further, you can also add hover effects to your social media icons using CSS. This will allow your icons to change color or opacity when someone hovers over them with their mouse. To do this, simply add the following code to the Custom CSS section of your website.
#social-icons a:hover {
opacity: 0.5;
}
