  Hi I’ve been trying to add a Twitter follow to a couple of pages on our website but have been getting very frustrated – there are several web sites offering multiple & sometimes contradictory solutions.

  This page has the best I’ve managed so far:

  Membership

  You’ll see the Twitter link about 12 lines down. It appears to work, but I’d prefer a button saying “Follow us on Twitter” or similar

  The code is:

  Twitter.com/DorkingGroup?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

  What am I doing wrong?

  Thanks for your help!

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

  Hi there,

  To do that you can add the “button block” which is a way to add a link to your site so it appears as a button instead of hyperlinked text.

  However, since you have already added the link, you can convert it to a button by following the steps shown in this video: https://d.pr/v/yrCTzm

  Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have any more questions.
