If you want to place a link to your social media channels on your peer-to-peer site's homepage, this is the place to do it. Enter your social media pages’ URLs in the related fields to add a link to your page.

Once you save your social settings, the URLs will populate the icons on the top left of all of your site pages to make them easily accessible regardless of where people are on your peer-to-peer site.

You can configure the default content that will appear when people share your campaign on Facebook. In this area, you can choose a custom image and a custom description for your campaign that will appear in sharers’ Facebook posts. To select an image to appear in sharers’ posts, click Change Thumbnail.

In the resulting window, choose the file you want to use from your computer and click Open. Zoom and crop your image until you have it positioned in a satisfactory way, then click I’m Done Editing.

Then, enter your custom Facebook Description.

Make sure you save your changes by clicking Save Social Settings.
