Adding support for Social Media links to the websites

Back to Blog

contact-info-weblet We are very pleased to add a tightly integrated support for Social Media links to your website with myRealPage. We have extended our Site Settings dialog to include a tab for “Social Media” where you can add links to your accounts with:

Once you fill in your Social Media links into the Site Settings and publish them, they will appear in your “Contact Info” weblet, as well as in “Contact Form” (if it’s configured to display your contact information). You can even place another Contact Info weblet where you like on your page and specify to hide everything in it, except the Social Media icons, if you would like a better control over how to show these links.

For brokers:

We have also added support for social media icons to the “Agent Directory” weblet which is mostly of interest to brokers that have myRealPage websites. You can now add Social Media links for each of your agent. The icons with these links will appear in the Agent Directory listings, as well as in all Instant Agent websites.

What about the social media links on mobile?
There is a place to add them into the 'edit website' as well as an option to 'hide social media' on the contact page, however they don't show up anywhere...

Jason, you are correct: the support for social media icons on the mobile websites is coming soon.

Jason, the Social Media icons should now be fully working on our native mobile websites. Let me know if you run into any snags.
