Icarus offers a way to showcase yourself using the profile sidebar widget. To use this widget, simply add the following lines to the widgets section of your _config.yml:

{% codeblock lang:yaml _config.yml %} - type: profile position: # show in left or right sidebar author: # your name author_title: # your title location: # where are you avatar: # path or url to your avatar image gravatar: # your gravatar email follow_link: # path or url to any page you want social_links: # add links to your social network here {% endcodeblock%}

There are two things that you should note:

• If you want to Gravatar, fill in your email in the gravatar field. Otherwise, leave it blank or it will override the avatar setting.
• The social_links field accepts an array of links which are either shown as text link or icon link:
  • Text link

    social_links:
        Facebook: http://facebook.com
        Twitter: http://twitter.com
    

  • Icon link

    social_links:
        Facebook:
            icon: fab fa-facebook
            url: http://facebook.com
        Twitter:
            icon: fab fa-twitter
            url: http://twitter.com
    

    The icon here refers to the Font Awesome icon class name by default, which you can find in the Font Awesome icon details page.
