I have the Facebook , Twitter Google Auth installed but wondering if there is a switch I can flip to post my Facebook and social media profile links?
AI-generated summary
In a support thread titled ‘Is there a setting to add Facebook, Twitter, Instagram profile links?’, Donald_Swofford asks if there’s a built-in setting to display social media icons (like Facebook or Twitter) in the forum header, similar to how they appear on sites like flaquarium.org. railsID suggests using a custom user field for individual profiles, but Donald_Swofford clarifies he’s seeking a site-wide header solution. Johani confirms no native setting exists but provides helpful links to theme components and tutorials for adding social icons to the header via customization. Donald_Swofford thanks the community for the guidance. The discussion highlights that while Discourse doesn’t offer this feature out-of-the-box, it’s easily achievable through theme components or CSS tweaks.
You could create a custom field (admin >> customize >> user fields).
So your users could put their social media links in there.
May it help.
Thank you for the tip that is interesting however I was referring to the single facebook or twitter link for my forum. so maybe at the top next to search there is a facebook twitter icon etc. Similar to the way it is here in the top right http://www.flaquarium.org/ I understand I can accomplish this with custom css etc but I just wanted to make sure there wasn’t a social option already baked in.
As far as I know, no. There isn’t.
Beyond that - and just in case you missed these - this maybe what you’re looking for:
Or if you’re interested in adding the icons in the existing header:
Great thank you very much!
