Answer

Why don't the social icons on my blog pages link to my social media accounts?

The difference between social share icons on blog pages and social profile links in your site header and footer.

Important: This feature is only available on desktop. It is not accessible through the Luxury Presence Mobile App.

Overview

The social icons on your blog pages are share buttons — they let visitors share your blog post to their own personal social networks. They are not links to your own social media accounts. This is why they look and behave differently from the icons in your site header or footer, which link directly to your business's social media profiles.

Key difference between blog share icons and header/footer social icons

Here's how the two sets of social icons differ:

  • Blog pages — The social icons let visitors share your blog post to their own social networks
  • Header / Footer — The social icons link to your business's social media profiles

Can the blog page share icons be changed or removed?

The social share icons on blog pages cannot be replaced with links to your own social accounts, and there is no self-service way to remove them from individual blog posts. If you'd like the icons removed entirely, contact our support team using the details below.

If you want your own social profiles visible on blog pages instead, add them to your site header or footer — these links appear site-wide, including on blog pages. See How to update social media links in your website footer for setup steps.
