  Just so I am clear, I made a mistake in the topic section. I know how to add sharing buttons to my posts. I’d like to add social media follow buttons in the sidebar. Is that possible with the Elemin Theme?

  Hello:
  I wasn’t able to find a widget that would allow me to create social media follow buttons for the side bar, so I made on up! Here is what I did:

  1. I downloaded a set of free social buttons from:
  http://www.carrieloves.com/2012/12/free-social-media-icons-updated/.
  2. I uploaded them to my blog’s media file.
  3. I resized them to fit nicely in my sidebar.
  4. I added them individually to the sidebar using the image widget.

  I hope this helps others using Elemin Theme…or other themes that don’t have this specific widget.

  Please go to my site to see how it looks! http://www.gathering-flavors.com .
