The Smashballoon Social Media plugin allows you to display content from Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Youtube. Each service can be embedded individually within a page in Aurora, or they can all be displayed with one another on a Social Wall.

To link each service, navigate to the **Dashboard > Social Feeds**, and then select a social media platform.

Follow the vendor setup instructions for each service.
