This allows you to add Facebook “Like” buttons and display Facebook reviews on your TrekkSoft website which can be very persuasive when your customers/guests are thinking about booking one of your activities! 

To add Facebook to one of your Trekksoft pages, you do this in two ways:

• Add your Facebook URL into your Apps menu
• Add the Facebook element into your page
