  I am in the process of starting a website for my band, which will be focused only on events, weddings, etc. Question: some themes have the social media options, such as “Soundcheck”, others don’t. I really liked the Blocco Theme, though I got confused whether the social media icons would appear on the front page or not, as the formerly cited theme. thanks

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

  Please consult the theme description and note that there are no social networking icons provided by that theme. > http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/blocco/

  For every theme here see > Sharing > http://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/

  Regardless of which theme you use, you can capture an image of any social networking icon and upload it, link to it and display it in a text widget.

  For creating links in a text widget see:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/text-widget/
  NOTE http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/text-widget/#adding-an-image

  You can upload image files by clicking the Add Media button right above the editing area of a page or a post. http://en.support.wordpress.com/add-media/

  You can also upload new files to your Media Library using Media → Add New. http://support.wordpress.com/media/media-add-new
