#### **v3.0.0**

**🚨 Breaking**

* **🚨** Site social links are now powered by Ghost Social accounts. The old Code Injection variables for YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Threads, and LinkedIn are no longer used.
* **🚨** Only `WHATSAPP_LINK` remains in Code Injection for the Contact page. After updating, review your Contact page and footer social links.

* ✨ Support for Ghost's new `social_accounts` helper for both site-wide and author social links.
