Social Homes

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.

  • 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?
