This method allows you to have more control over the appearance and behavior of the social media icons, but keep in mind that using a plugin can save time and effort, especially if you’re not familiar with HTML and CSS. Additionally, if you manually create the buttons, you’ll need to update the icons and links in the widget code whenever you make changes to your social media profiles.
