How Do I Add a Social Login to Wix?

Last updated on January 2, 2023 @ 12:20 pm

Social media has become an integral part of many people’s lives. It’s a great way to stay connected with friends and family, and it’s also a great way to promote your business. If you’re looking to add a social login to your Wix website, there are a few different ways you can do it.

Option 1: Use the Wix Social App

GREAT NEWS:

Exciting update! We've collaborated with Wix to offer WBI users with a free plan for all website creation needs - Explore the details here.

The first option is to use the Wix Social App. This app allows you to add social buttons for Facebook, Twitter, Google+, and LinkedIn to your website. Once you’ve installed the app, simply follow the instructions to add the buttons to your site.

Option 2: Use a Third-Party Service

If you don’t want to use the Wix Social App, you can also use a third-party service like AddThis or ShareThis. These services provide social buttons that you can add to your website. To use either of these services, simply create an account and follow the instructions to add the buttons to your site.

Option 3: Add HTML Code

If you’re comfortable working with code, you can also add social buttons to your site by adding HTML code. For example, if you wanted to add a Facebook button, you would add the following code:

<a href="http://www.facebook.com/YOURPAGE" Target="_blank">
<img src="http://facebook-badge.com/fb-badge-light.png"
alt="Add me on Facebook" /></a>

Simply replace “YOURPAGE” with your Facebook page URL. You can also change the image that is used for the button.

Adding a social login to your Wix website is a great way to stay connected with your audience and promote your business. By using the Wix Social App, using a third-party service, or adding HTML code, you can easily add social buttons to your site.

PRO TIP: If you are planning to add a social login to your Wix website, be aware that there are some risks associated with this. First of all, your site’s security could be compromised if you do not properly configure the social login feature. Additionally, your site’s performance could suffer if you add too many social login buttons or if you do not properly optimize the code. Finally, be sure to test the social login feature thoroughly before making it live on your site.
