 * Hi,
 * No does not. You have to add those manually. The reason is as follows:
 * Think about it like this way:
    Just because you are logged in to any social media(
   suppose Facebook), does not mean that any profile widget you add will be that
   of the logged-in account. It can be any account; and need not be that of the 
   logged-in person. Moreover adding the auto-detection feature adds lots of unnecessary
   permission overhead e.g. in order to read data from your Facebook account, the
   user needs to explicitly provide access to Facebook to read data. The plugin 
   just cannot read data without user permission. Same goes for other profiles as
   well like LinkedIn, Google+ etc. Ultimately the interface will become more complicated
   than necessary.
 * Hope you understand the reason now.
 * Based on the above reasons, I will not add auto-detection of logged-in account
   details feature to the plugin as I want to keep the plugin user-friendly and 
   not a bloated one.
 * Thanks!
