Social Media Buttons linked to specific content?

Hi,

I’m creating a “watch” page on my website with embedded playlists from YouTube. Is it possible to use the SiteOrigin social media buttons to link to each specific playlist?

Thanks!

    Hi Gabriela

    Thanks for posting, sorry we weren’t able to reply sooner. Hopefully, you’ve made some progress since posting. The Social Media Buttons will link to whichever URL you insert.

    Thanks, Andrew.
    I'm sorry if this is just silly. I just can't figure out how to add the
    URL. I have a page with a bunch of playlists (developing locally so can't share URL) and I'd like to be able to make each playlist sharable. How can
    I do that? Where do I edit the link?

    Thanks again! Gabriela

    If you’re using the Social Media widget you’d edit it, add an item and then add your URL:

    fb

    The Social Media Buttons widget isn’t a sharing widget though, that’s to say it has fields for static URL’s. It doesn’t offer URL’s to auto-share content. You might consider Jetpack’s sharing module for that:
