 * There are several site platforms supported by this module as follows:**
 * Twitter - **LIVE TWITTER FEED ON THIS MODULE LOOKS AWESOME!!**

 * 1) Download and install the Social Media Module found at: []
 * 2) Enable the module, scroll down to save configuration and then click on configure next to the social media module.
 * 1) At the very top of the page you will see a link that says “+ Setup wizard”. Click on this link which will navigate you to a page to set up your social media profiles. You’ll notice that this module supports a variety of platforms, and you only have to set up the ones that you would like on your site.
 * 2) Your next step is to enter in all the details required for each social media platform. You will have to navigate for example to your actual Twitter profile and copy and paste the link in the address bar under “Twitter URL”. As for “Twitter Username”, You can enter in a text of how you want your name to appear, otherwise it will use the default of your username in the URL. Complete this task for all platforms you would like enabled on your website. Once complete, scroll to the bottom of the page and click “Save profiles”.
 * 1) You will then be navigated to a page which allows you to choose the buttons for the platforms you selected. These buttons can be changed, based on your preferences from the “widget” tab. First make your selection under “Basic” – a button which will simply navigate visitors to your social media page once clicked on.

Underneath Basic, is “Addthis Counters”. These buttons will show how many people for example “tweeted” you or “liked” your article. When you are satisfied with your selection of widgets then you can simply click “save profile widget buttons”.

6. The next page you will be navigated to is called “Social media widget placement setup”. You can choose where you want to place your social media buttons within your page. Please note that placement areas will vary according to themes. 7. A really cool part of this module is that it will integrate a LIVE Twitter feed on your website! – You can change the colours according to your theme within your CSS! As you can see, I have placed my Twitter Profile Widget in my sidebar – You will have to adjust any sizing incompatibilities.
