How to Tag The Social Icons Widget for Figma to Elementor?

Table of Contents

If you are using social icons in your Figma design, you can easily tag those elements as an Elementor Social Icon widget using the UiChemy plugin.

So when you export the design as an Elementor template, that particular section will use the Social Icons widget.

What Can be Tagged?

A frame containing multiple nested frames with an icon (Font Awesome 5 or SVG icon) can be tagged as a Social Icons widget.

How to Tag?

Select the top level frame of your layout then select the Optimize & Convert option and click the Optimize & Convert button.

Now select the frame or container containing the social icons in your design and click on the Widget Tags tab in the UiChemy panel.

Then search for social icons and click on the Social Icons widget from Elementor.

On the next screen, you’ll get the information of which element you are tagging as what widget.

Then you’ll see widget specific tagging options and most of the options will be auto-filled based on your design.

  1. As per your design, you’ll see an equal number of Icon Frame fields are created with a selected icon in each field. However, you can click the dropdown to change each option. You can also select any frame or element to be used as an icon by clicking on the eyedropper tool and the option will be available in the dropdown as well. You can click on the Add New button to add more icons.

Note: You can only add icon frame fields up to the same number of social icons added in your design. If you add any extra fields, it will be removed automatically once you save the changes, but if you add less number of fields, only those will be exported, not all the social icons of the layout.

  1. Once done, click on the Save button to complete the tagging.

Now if you export the design, that element will use the Social Icons widget with all your specified information.
