I want a "Visit me at Facebook" button

How to I get that button that redirects to my Facebook page? I also want one for my Twitter page as well.

I believe the below link may have the information you’re looking for.

Hope that solves your question!

I’ve used that link. But the problem is that the WordPress button for Facebook redirects to my personal facebook profile, not the Facebook business page I have attached to my profile. I see others have been able to do this. I just don’t know if it’s a special button, something I’m missing in the Sharing section, or a current glitch in WordPress. I have seen several other questions from others having the same problem. Am I missing something?
Thanks -
I’m not too familiar with all the ins and outs just yet, either. See if this link may solve the problem.

Thanks.
But it does the same thing. Both those methods are different approaches to the same end result. The problem is that myself, along with many others, have the redirect going to our personal Facebook profiles when we want it to redirect to our business page. No matter how many times I set it/reset it, it still goes back to the personal profile.YET, I’ve seen many WordPress pages that have it accurately redirected to their business page.
It’s really frustrating.
I do appreciate your help.

Sam,
So sorry neither of those worked. I wish I were more familiar so I could better assist you.
Have you checked out Jetpack? I’m wondering if maybe it’s the magical key…
Again, I’m not familiar enough, but certainly don’t mind trying different things that may help you out.

STOP please. Jetpack is a plugin for those who have wordpress.ORG installs.When we need Staff help with issues Volunteers cannot resolve like this one we type modlook into the sidebar tags on our forum threads. I did that for you. How do I get a Moderator/Staff reply for my question? https://en.support.wordpress.com/getting-help-in-the-forums/#how-do-i-get-a-moderatorstaff-reply-for-my-question Then we subscribe to this thread so we are notified when they respond. To subscribe look in the sidebar of this thread, find the subscribe to topics link and click it.

And just to be clear, you are making that change here:
https://wordpress.com/sharing/techviewsorg.wordpress.com
…correct?
And then you are saying that the change is not saving?

Thanks Mariah,
And yes, staff-ozmodiar, that is where I am making the change. I have checked both my Facebook profile and Facebook business page settings, and everything seems to be ok there. I’m really confused. Feel free to wade around my links since I am just getting them all set up. -
Ah, sorry about that… I confused the two. Good luck with everything, as I’m sure Staff will get you squared away. :)
Take care, Sam!

Hello all, thanks for your help.
I had to delete that particular page and recreate it within my Facebook profile. now it is working correctly. Maybe it was Facebook, I’m not sure. but anyway, I have it working now so thanks for all your efforts.(BTW, anyone know how I can make the Facebook & Twitter buttons larger? They are very small right now).
