A WordPress plug-in which adds a sidebar widget containing a subtle list of all your social homes as linked favicons. 
Version 3.x of Social Homes allows you to add any link you want, so the list of available services is endless. Just add a name and a URL and Social Homes will fetch the page’s favicon and create the link automatically!
- If you leave the name field as the default ‘Service Name’, Social Homes will fetch the page’s title and use that as a name.
- If you uncheck the box next to a service, that service will not appear on your blog but the data will stay saved in the database.
- To delete an entry, clear out the address box and save your changes.
You can download the plug-in here.
Is anyone having trouble with this plugin on WordPress 2.8.4 or higher? — I know it says WordPress 2.7.1 — I just wanted to see if it worked. I’m getting a “Fatal error: Cannot redeclare widget_socialhomes()”
If anyone could suggest a fix, that would be great
Hey Nathan,
That’s odd, I’ve got it running on this blog and I’m at WP 2.8.5. Are you using the latest version of Social Homes? And do you have more than one instance of the plugin running at the same time?
Hi – I sent you an email, and now I’m trying to get an answer by adding a comment. The plugin works great, except for when I put a link to the Linkedin public profile page. Then no fav image. If it’s just to linkedin.com, works though. Help please?
Hi Christina,
Sorry for not answering earlier. I am aware of the LinkedIn bug and am working on fixing it.
Thanks!

You plugin seems to work better than any other for getting my social icons into my WordPress sidebar, but I can’t seem to add my RSS feed… I mean the link works but the icon won’t show. What do I do?
i host 5 of my blogs on Blogspot and it is really good for beginners. but if you want something with more features, nothing beats wordpress:-”
good plugin! keep going
I have just installed this plugin and it appears LinkedIn is still not working…any ideas on when this will be fixed?
Thank you.
thats a great plugin.thanks
Although the plug-in works, the icons are not clickable, although I have selected the correct options. Any clue as to what to do?
Thanks!
