Social Feed Features

Feature 1: Sort things out

Elfsight Social Media widget enables you to filter the content, relevant for your target audience. We’ve created appropriate filters for each source supported, which let you display certain types of content, present in corresponding social media. For example, while attaching Instagram, you can set to display the posts with video, photo, or IGTV content. Don’t forget to set the sorting option according to your needs. Show the freshest posts first to keep the audience engaged or rank them according to popularity to show the most relevant content. You also have an option to choose random order to make the Social Media live feed more diverse and captivating.

Feature 2: Full control over your feed

Apply Manual moderation mode to choose and pick by hand only the posts that suit your feed. Only after your approval they will appear in the widget. If you are confident enough in the social media content particular users produce, you can whitelist them to upload their posts right away without your approval. And vice versa, blacklist the people, whose social media posts you would not like to see in your feed, and they will be automatically rejected. Weed out any spam and unwilling content easily!

Feature 3: Smooth uploading and one-click moderation

Let the widget do all the work for you! The Auto-moderation mode automatically approves and uploads all the posts according to the filters set. But you still have the option to switch undesired posts off manually. This mode also features the blacklist option to avoid any undesired or irrelevant content in your feed.

Feature 1: Show social media posts to the fullest using Grid layout.

Feature 2: Classic Slider or Carousel presentation

Discover the perfect layout types to place social feed widget as a separate unit on a page and integrate it into your content zone. Integrate the posts into your page space-effective.

Feature 3: Create Social Wall with Masonry layout

Feature 1: 2 Pop-up Layouts

Pop-up mode offers you 2 variants of cards representation: slider and feed. Choose the Slider to make each post stand out and appear one by one in front of a user. This will let you draw attention to and single out the desired information and thus push a user to the target action. The Feed layout, in its turn, serves to keep your visitors intrigued and engaged by loading more and more posts with them scrolling down.

Flawless interaction makes people look through more and more content, among which short videos are becoming increasingly popular. This way you can increase the time and quality of your users’ involvement.

Feature 1: Generate optimal color scheme in a few clicks.

After deciding on widget layout and post template, move on to the colors! Start with picking a light or a dark theme. If none of them seems to fit, switch to custom. There you can add a picture as a background of your widget to create an atmosphere. Or just make a gradient fill instead to make your widget look colourful but stylish. Decide on accent color, that would match your existing website design and the chosen color scheme. Change the fonts if needed or keep them classic. That’s it! Creating your individual design is simple and plain like never before.
