yo @plone/volto my-volto-project --addon @kitconcept/volto-social-blocks
cd my-volto-project

Add @kitconcept/volto-social-blocks to your package.json:

"addons": [
    "@kitconcept/volto-social-blocks"
],

"dependencies": {
    "@kitconcept/volto-social-blocks": "*"
}

Download and install the new add-on by running:

yarn install

Start volto with:

yarn start

Test it

Go to http://localhost:3000/, login, create a new page. The social blocks will show up in the Volto blocks chooser.

Custom Privacy Consent Notice

You can register a custom React component to check for privacy consent and show the user a prompt to confirm accessing the external services. This is useful to meet European GDPR requirements, for example.

config.registerComponent({
  name: 'CheckPrivacyConsent',
  component: IfConfirm,  # use your own component here
});

The @kitconcept/volto-dsgvo-banner addon provides one possible implementation of the CheckPrivacyConsent component.
