  How can I provide the option for visitors to share my blog posts on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn? Also is there a way to enable RSS on my blog?

  Hello,
  
  To activate social sharing in blog page, please go to General Options > Blog Config > Social Shares on Posts, set it ON.
  You can add rss feed from the widgets. Go to Appearances > Widgets (screenshot).
  
  Let us know.
  
  Best regards!

  What url do I enter for the RSS feed?

  Also, it looks like the space between the search bar and the grey header bar isn’t applied to individual post pages

  Hello,
  
  -Add this code to add space between header and content in single posts:
  
  #content { padding-top: 30px !important; }
  
  -The primary RSS feed is always installed in the /feed/ directory. For example, if your site is https://www.lindemancollective.com, your feed can be found at the following location: https://www.lindemancollective.com/feed/. You should see the raw XML file that is the RSS feed.

  Where do I place that code? Also, how do I get an RSS icon to show (or is there a subscribe option)?
  
  Lastly, I notice that when you view all of the blog articles by simply clicking on “blog” the social sharing options aren’t there, they are only available when you click “read more” is there a way to make them show up in both places?

  Hello,
  
  Follow the article guidelines or install a plugin to add RSS feeds into your site. This is not part of theme and it’s not included in support.
  
  To add social sharing for the articles in blog page, go to General Options > Blog Config > Social Shares on Posts, set it ON.
  
  Best regards!

  OK.
  
  Can you tell me where to paste that code for the extra space between the search bar and the header?
  
  Also, I already have Social Shares on Posts set to on. The show up when you click on “read more,” but not when you’re on the main blog page.

  Hello,
  
  -Add the css code into the Custom CSS Box in General Options (screenshot).
  
  -That’s because the blog style you have selected does not show them up. Try changing blog style to Creative and you will see the socials in blog page as well.
  Let us know.
