On the Constituent Profile, a Constituent's social media links can be added, this allows users to find website addresses, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn profiles, etc. quickly, rather than having to perform searches via those mediums or a more general search on a search engine.


Add a Social Media ID option

  1. Navigate to Settings, click Configuration.

  2. Select Social Media Ids.

  3. Click on the plus icon to the right of the screen.

  4. Fill the description for the social media option you want to add (the display name).

  5. Add a favicon icon code: favicons are from Font Awesome:https://fontawesome.com/

  6. To locate the code, search for the required item, click on the image item and note the second part of the code, for example: Adding an icon for LinkedIn, use the highlighted section:

  7. Fill it in as fa fa-{brand name} - e.g: fa fa-linkedin.

  8. Add the Name (actual name of social media option).

  9. Ensure it is set to Active.

  10. Click Save Changes.

The social media option will then be available for use within your Donorfy within the Social panel section of a Constituent’s Profile.
