Social share buttons let visitors post a link to your page on networks like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest and WhatsApp with a single click - a quick way to extend the reach of your content. Here is how to add one in ProSite.

## Add the share widget to your page

1. Launch ProSite from your cPanel.
2. Navigate to the page where you want the share buttons to appear.
3. Click the **Social** button in the element panel.

   The **Profile ID** field is optional. It is only needed if you want analytics reports through AddThis.com - covering what content was shared, which networks it was shared to, geographic data, audience interests and more. To use this feature, sign up for a free account at [addthis.com](https://www.addthis.com/register) and copy your Profile ID into this field.

7. Use the **Options** tab to adjust the widget size and position, and to control whether it appears on all pages or only specific ones.
8. Click **Apply** to save your changes.
