Further more, you can delete these images or place them in your design by “drag&drop”. - Our plugin supports social media integration( Facebook and Instagram ), so all you have to do to enable this feature is to configure your apps and fill in the credentials in the settings page of our plugin and you are free to use images imported from social media.
- When you finish editing the template, click “Save” button. The popup window will close.
- Don’t forget to click “Publish”/”Update” button to save your changes.
