  Can I add an additional widget to my site or am I limited by my theme? I’d like to add a social media widget, but I don’t know if I can do that and keep the other widgets I already have.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hello there!

  You can absolutely add more widgets to your site.

  Here is a step-by-step document that will talk you through the process of setting social media buttons up in a widget on your site:

  I think it worked. I didn’t realize I could add multiple widgets to each sidebar/footer. I thought they could each only have one.

  Thanks!
