FAQs
How do I use dynamic data with the social icons?
To make the social icons dynamic for each author (required on multi-author blogs), you’ll need to create custom fields for each social network and assign them to author profiles in WordPress. The field needs to be a raw text field that will contain the URL to the author’s social profile. Then you can dynamically inject this into the author template. Since there are a myriad of ways users can create and name custom fields, we can’t preconfigure this for you.
