How Do I Show the Social Platform Icon on My Avatar Blocks Widget in Feedspace?

Last updated on June 12, 2026

Overview

The Avatar Blocks widget displays your testimonials in a structured block grid, pairing each reviewer’s avatar with their name, star rating, and review text side by side in a clean, card-based layout. Because each card is compact and visually balanced, visitors can scan multiple reviews at a glance without being overwhelmed by content.

The Show Social Platform Icon toggle, found in the Widget Content Customization section, adds the logo of the platform each review came from, such as Google, Trustpilot, or Facebook, directly onto the corresponding card. This gives each block an instant visual signal of where the review originated, reinforcing credibility by tying the testimonial to a recognised third-party source. A nested Social Redirection toggle extends this further by making the icon clickable, so visitors can follow the link directly to the original review on that platform.

How to Show the Social Platform Icon on Your Avatar Blocks Widget

Step 1: Open the Widgets Section

Log in to your Feedspace account. In the left-hand navigation, click Widgets to see a list of all the widgets you have created.

Step 2: Edit Your Avatar Blocks Widget

Find the Avatar Blocks widget you want to update and click the Edit button next to it. This opens the widget editor where you can adjust both content and design settings.

Step 3: Go to the Design Tab

Inside the widget editor, click the Design tab at the top of the panel. This tab contains all the visual and layout customization options for your Avatar Blocks widget, including the content display toggles.

Step 4: Locate the Widget Content Customization Section

Scroll down through the Design tab until you reach the Widget Content Customization section. This section groups all the toggles that control which elements appear on each review card in the grid.

Step 5: Enable the Show Social Platform Icon Toggle

Find the Show Social Platform Icon toggle and turn it on. Once enabled, the logo of the source platform, for example the Google logo for a Google review, will appear on each card in your Avatar Blocks grid. Each card automatically displays the icon that matches its own review source, so mixed-source widgets show the correct logo on every block.

Step 6: Enable Social Redirection (Optional)

After turning on the Show Social Platform Icon toggle, a nested Social Redirection toggle will appear beneath it. Enable this toggle to make each platform icon a clickable link. When a visitor clicks the icon on a card, they are taken directly to the original review on that platform. This adds an extra layer of transparency and allows visitors to verify reviews independently. If you prefer the icons to be decorative only, leave Social Redirection turned off.

Step 7: Save and Publish Your Widget

Once you are satisfied with your settings, click Save to apply the changes. Your Avatar Blocks widget will now display the social platform icon on each card. If the widget is already embedded on a page, the update takes effect immediately without needing to re-embed the code.

What You Can Do Next

  • Show or hide star ratings on each card to control how much review detail appears alongside the platform icon in your Avatar Blocks grid.
  • Adjust the overall design of your Avatar Blocks widget, including card spacing, colours, and font styles, to ensure the platform icons blend naturally with your page layout.
  • Filter which reviews appear in the Avatar Blocks widget so that only reviews with verified platform sources are shown, making the social icons more meaningful to visitors.
  • Copy the updated embed code for your Avatar Blocks widget and place it on a dedicated testimonials page or landing page where social proof icons will have the most impact on conversions.
