Additionally, this section setting lets you add the call-to-action button to redirect customers to your desired page or social media page.
Provide a **Button label** and **Button link** for this button, then choose a **Button style** (Primary button/ Secondary button/ Underline button/ Bordered icon button).
Select a suitable **Social media** icon for this button (Instagram/ Facebook/ Twitter)
* Choose **None** to display the normal button without an icon.

For example:
 
#### Grid settings
Use the slider to adjust the **Number of columns on desktop** (between 2 and 6) for image blocks.

Click *Select image* to select a suitable **Image** for the block to display in the section.
