Kelvin’s footer shows follow icons for your social accounts, the payment icons of the methods your store accepts, and Shopify’s Follow on Shop button. You set the social links once in Theme settings; the payment icons come straight from Shopify.
Social icons and payment icons in the footer

1 Social icons under the email signup · 2 Payment icons in the bottom row

Social icons.
  1. Open Theme settings → Social media and paste the full address of each account. Kelvin supports YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, X, Facebook, Discord, Reddit and Twitch. For example https://www.youtube.com/@yourstore, or a Discord invite such as https://discord.gg/yourinvite.
  2. Each network you fill in gets an icon; empty fields are left out. The icons always show in the order above. Every field is empty on install, so no icons show until you add a link.
  3. The icons sit in the footer under the Email signup block. When the footer has no Email signup block, they move to the footer’s last column, under the country and language selectors when the store has them.
What shoppers see. Square 40 px buttons with a line drawing of each network’s mark, in the footer’s text color. The border turns to the accent color on hover, and keyboard focus shows a ring. Screen readers hear each network’s name, in a list called Follow us. The links open in the same tab. Other networks. Pinterest, Threads, LinkedIn and other networks are not in the list. Add them as text links: create a menu such as Follow us in Content → Menus and add a Menu block to the Footer with it. Payment icons.
  • Footer → Show payment icons (on by default) shows them at the end of the footer’s bottom row, after the copyright line. Screen readers hear them as Payment methods.
  • Shopify draws the icons, in its own artwork, for the payment methods enabled in Settings → Payments. They update by themselves when you turn a method on or off; the theme never picks them.
  • No icons? Check that at least one payment method is active in Settings → Payments and that Show payment icons is on.
  • On desktop the bottom row keeps clear of the back-to-top button, so the last icon is never covered.
Follow on Shop. Footer → Show Follow on Shop (on by default) adds Shopify’s Follow on Shop button to the footer’s last column, under the country and language selectors when there are any, so shoppers can follow your store in the Shop app. It shows only when Shop Pay is turned on in Settings → Payments, and Shopify draws the button.
Social and payment icons are plain links and pictures. Kelvin never loads anything from the social networks, and shows no social feed.
