Add more social media icons

Please add more options for social media such as an RSS feed (blog) and Houzz (interior design specific).  In addition, please "lock in" the social media icons per email campaign.  For example, I create email campaign 1 and set up the social media icons.  Then I create email campaign 2 with the social media icons linking to different social sites.  As soon as I save the social media profile for email 2 it changes the social media links in email 1.  This is VERY frustrating as we have 6 different brands that we send emails out for and we cannot use our email templates due to this issue. 

 

We tried to create our own social media icons by using images however, we cannot place more that two images side by side like we could in the old interface.  Also, please put back the ability to add a table into the new user interface - you took away this feature!  Having the ability to add a table would allow me a workaround to my first issue.  UGH!  Very frustrating - this is making us re-consider our decision to use Constant Contact for our email campaigns.

Thank you for your patience as we looked into this! The good news is we have received word from our engineers that more social media icons have been made available in our cross platform editor!

Only Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Linked-in, Google +, and Pinterest are options to add in the social media share block. Please add other popular platforms like Instagram, Flicker, Vimeo, etc.

Houzz is not listed in the social share buttons!!

The social media selection when adding in the social media connections doesn't include a link to yelp and that is one of our biggest influences on clients, it would be great if they could check out our links straight from our email blast.

Hi ! Can you include a Snapchat button on the SoMe choices ?

The social media icons are shockingly limited. You may or may not be aware, but there are more than 5 social media services out there.

Hi: It would be very useful if you had also TripAdvisor and Yelp. Thank you
