Social media and sharing
Link your social profiles once and Ignite shows the icons wherever they belong. Share buttons let customers send a product or article to a friend in one tap.
Find these in the theme editor under Theme settings > Social media.
Add your social accounts
- Under Store social accounts, paste the full address of each profile, such as
https://www.instagram.com/yourstore. - Leave a network empty to hide its icon.
- Click Save.
Ignite has icons for Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, X, Snapchat, Pinterest, Tumblr, Vimeo, WhatsApp, Threads and LinkedIn.
Where the icons appear
- Footer: in the bottom bar, when Show social media icons is on in the Footer section.
- Burger menu: at the bottom of the mobile menu.
- Email signup banner: when Show social media icons is on in that section.
A network that isn’t listed
Upload an image in Custom social icon and add its address in Custom link. Use a simple, single-color icon, ideally an SVG.

| Both | |
| Desktop | |
