# Social media icons

{% hint style="info" %}
Unlike the **styling** configuration (theme configuration), the settings of a theme are always stored in the parent theme. A child theme does not have its own area with settings.

[**Where can I find the theme settings?**](https://themedocs.zenit.design/en/master#schritt-5-einstellungen-plugin-app-konfiguration)
{% endhint %}

## Set up

In the footer of your onlineshop, social media icons can be set by entering the URL in the theme settings. The **Icon style (1)** can be set up for each sales channel. You have the choice between `Round`, `Square` or `Default`.

In the following **Url fields (2)** you just enter the URL to your social media page. As the field has a value, an icon is displayed.

{% hint style="info" %}
This is only a link to the platforms, not a sharing function, so the integration is privacy safe.
{% endhint %}
