  - Add the official public URL of each social profile you actively use, check it signed out, and make sure the icon matches. A profile link is a normal link and does not let Tapmy post to that account.

**Applies to:** creators linking to public Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, X, Threads, LinkedIn or other supported destinations. Linking is separate from authorizing social publishing.

## How do I add social links to my store? {#add-trusted-social-destinations}

Your store should stay the place people buy. Social links back it up with trust and discovery, so add only the profiles you really use and want visitors to follow.

1. Open each profile in a signed-out browser and copy its public URL. Do not copy a creator-studio, settings or share-preview link.
2. Add it through the social-link or general-link option, and pick the network if the editor offers a choice.
3. Check that the icon or label matches the destination. An Instagram icon should not open your website.
4. Order the profiles by how useful they are to your audience, not just follower count. Keep the list short enough to scan on a phone.
5. Make sure each profile's name, photo and bio clearly belong to the same person or business as the store.
6. Preview the store signed out, then tap every link on a phone and, if you can, from inside the social app's browser.
7. Publish, and check again after a handle change, rebrand or account suspension.

Before you start, gather the URLs and check that each account is public or intentionally restricted.

Publishing to social networks is a different setup. You connect a channel and approve only the permissions the action needs.

## What a good result looks like {#what-success-looks-like}

Each icon opens the correct public profile, your identity looks consistent, and visitors can find their way back to the store. No link exposes a private dashboard or asks for unexpected permissions.

## Common problems {#troubleshooting-and-limits}

- **The profile is unavailable.** Check the handle, whether the account is public, regional or age limits, and whether the platform changed the URL.
- **The wrong icon shows.** Pick the right network type, or use a plain link with a clear label for now.
- **It works in a browser but not in the app.** Try the URL without extra parameters and test the platform's in-app browser.

A public profile link does not mean Tapmy can publish there. On Free you connect one social network per Site and use one network per post. Pro and Max allow unlimited connected networks and networks per post.

## Next steps {#next-steps}

Next, build a mobile-first store layout and, if you want to publish from Tapmy, connect your channels.
