To do this, simply add the block, then while in edit mode, click on the block and select Custom Template. Choose the option Social Feed Wall. Publish the page. NOTE: You may need to refresh the page to view the change.

 

Get Your Facebook & Google ID

FACEBOOK: For the facebook like box the ID of your facebook page must be used - this should be a numerical value, not the actual name of your facebook page - e.g. 157969575263873

To get the ID from your page you can use the following tool from facebook - replace "mypage" with the name of your facebook page:
https://graph.facebook.com/mypage

GOOGLE +1: To get your Google profile ID for the Google +1 tab go to your Google "Accounts" page and click on the "edit profile" link.  Check the URL in the browser address bar; your profile ID is the number in the middle of the URL:
https://profiles.google.com/100058553707775301897/about/
