Configuring the widget
Once you add the widget to your sidebar, for each social media account you want to add, click on ‘Add an Icon’ and then enter the URL for the social media account.
Currently supported social networks include Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn, GitHub, YouTube, Vimeo, WordPress.org, and Flickr.
Troubleshooting
I don’t like the size of the icons! How do I change that?
Easy! Using Jetpack’s Custom CSS Editor, you can add this CSS code to adjust the size of those icons to your preferred size.
.jetpack_widget_social_icons ul.size-medium a {
height: 20px;
width: 20px;
}
The default size of the Social Media icons is 32px, but you can adjust that to the size of your choosing.
