Links widget: your profiles and websites in one place
The links widget shows a set of buttons, each with the platform’s icon, that lead to your profiles and pages on the web. You can add it to any page – profile, venue, crew, event series and event. It can be added by the page’s owner and by its admins and moderators. One widget holds up to 36 links.
How to add links
- Tap “Edit” in the bar of your page, then “Add widget” or one of the “Widget” buttons between the tiles.
- In the “Content” group choose the “Links” tile. “Add links” opens.
- Paste an address into the “Link address” field, for example your SoundCloud page. You may leave out the https://. On the right of the field EDM Hub shows the platform it recognised.
- Tap “Add link”. The link now stands in the “Links” list. Repeat for every further link.
- Put the links in the order you want: drag them by the grip or use the row’s menu with “Move up”, “Move down”, “Move to the very top” and “Move to the very bottom”.
- Tap “Insert”, then “Save” in the bar at the top.
Every link gets its platform’s icon automatically.
Which platforms EDM Hub recognises
SoundCloud, Hearthis.at, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Spotify, Bandcamp, Mixcloud, TikTok, X / Twitter, Resident Advisor, Discogs, Threads, Apple Music, Beatport, Linktree and Twitch. Any other address is saved as “Website”, and EDM Hub tells you: “Unknown site, saved as “Website”.”
Labels
Each row has a “Label” field of up to 40 characters. For known platforms it is optional – left empty, the platform’s name stays. For a “Website” it is required (“Required for an unknown site”), for example “Booking” or “Homepage”.
Addresses and order apply to every language. Only the labels are written per language: switch to that language’s tab at the top. If you leave a label empty in a further language, visitors see the label from another language you wrote. Only a website’s label has to be there in every language.
Change, copy, remove
The menu at the end of each row (“Actions for …”) offers “Change platform”, in case EDM Hub recognised the wrong one, “Copy address” and “Remove”. After removing, “Undo” brings the link back.
How much is visible
Under “Preview”, “Visible without scrolling” sets how many rows the tile shows – with “Fewer rows” and “More rows”, up to 4 rows or “All”. How many links fit in a row depends on the tile’s width. Visitors reach further links by scrolling inside the tile. “Reset” brings back the default.
What visitors see
Visitors see the buttons with icon and name or your label. A tap opens the link in a new tab.
This is how the links widget looks on the page.
When a link is refused
- “‘…’ is not an address. A link looks like shift-dnb.de or https://…” – What you typed isn’t a link, for example because it contains a space.
- “You already have this link.” – The address is in the list already.
- “With https:// in front the address is longer than 500 characters. Shorten it.” – An address may have at most 500 characters, https:// included.
- “All 36 places taken” – Remove a link to add a new one.
- “Insert” does nothing – The bottom line says what is missing: “No link in the list yet. Add at least one.” or “A label is missing: …” with the language in which a website still has no label.
