The <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/more-widgets/" rel="ugc">More Widgets</a> plugin adds extra widgets to use with your widgetized areas within your WordPress site. Use this plugin instead of built-in theme widgets so if you ever switch themes you can keep your widgets.
The plugin is super slim and well coded so you don’t have to worry about any added “bloat” on the site. Also all widgets do include default styling so no coding is required. Of course if you want to remove the default styling this can be done easily via a child theme (see the FAQ’s below).
If you are looking for a different widget plugin you may want to check out our list of <a href="https://www.wpexplorer.com/best-wordpress-widget-plugins/" rel="nofollow ugc">Best Widget Plugins</a> for other options.

To use this plugin – your theme (or child theme) must support it. 
To display additional profiles for user you just need to use native WordPress function <code>the_author_meta( 'profile-name' )</code> where ‘profile name’ can be ‘twitter’, ‘facebook’, ‘googleplus’, ‘instagram’, ‘pinterest’.
Code example (with Font Awesome Icons):
<pre><code><?php
 $prefix_twitter_url = get_the_author_meta( 'twitter' );
 $prefix_facebook_url = get_the_author_meta( 'facebook' );
 $prefix_googleplus_url = get_the_author_meta( 'googleplus' );
 $prefix_instagram_url = get_the_author_meta( 'instagram' );
 $prefix_pinterest_url = get_the_author_meta( 'pinterest' );
?>
<?php if ( ! empty( $prefix_twitter_url ) ) : ?><a href="<?php the_author_meta( 'twitter' ) ?>"></a><?php endif; ?>
<?php if ( ! empty( $prefix_facebook_url ) ) : ?><a href="<?php the_author_meta( 'facebook' ) ?>"></a><?php endif; ?>
<?php if ( ! empty( $prefix_googleplus_url ) ) : ?><a href="<?php the_author_meta( 'googleplus' ) ?>"></a><?php endif; ?>
<?php if ( ! empty( $prefix_instagram_url ) ) : ?><a href="<?php the_author_meta( 'instagram' ) ?>"></a><?php endif; ?>
<?php if ( ! empty( $prefix_pinterest_url ) ) : ?><a href="<?php the_author_meta( 'pinterest' ) ?>"></a><?php endif; ?>
