The Social Feed widget allows you to display real-time or recent updates from the social media accounts of your brand directly on the website. This widget aggregates content from various social media platforms, such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and others, and presents it in a visually appealing and interactive format for your customers to view and engage with. Currently, the widget is designed to display the updates only from Facebook and Twitter.

  1. Go to the Visual Editor by clicking Design on the Dashboard top panel or by navigating from Dashboard > Channels > Design.
  2. Navigate to the required page.
  3. Go to the Widgets list on the Visual Editor Left Panel.
