Add Links to Your Personal Social Media Accounts

Tags: learner how-to

To add links to your social media accounts to your profile, follow these steps.

1. At the top of any page, select the dropdown menu icon next to your username, then select the Profile tab.

2. On your profile page, click the Add button or edit button in the Social Media section you want to edit.

3. Add your full social media URL or your username in the text field.

   For example, if your Facebook username is edx, you can enter either edx or https://www.facebook.com/edx.

   For LinkedIn, note that your username might include numbers. For example, if the URL of your LinkedIn profile page is https://www.linkedin.com/in /firstname-lastname-123456/, your LinkedIn username is firstname- lastname-123456.

The site saves your changes when you click outside the text field.

When you view your profile, icons for the social media icons that you added links for appear below your username. Other learners or course team members can click those icons to visit your social media account page.
