Social Media Share Buttons & Social Sharing Icons

The Social Media Share Buttons & Social Sharing Icons plugin lets you add share icons for RSS, Email, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Instagram, Youtube, ‘Share’ (covering 200+ other social media platforms) and upload custom share icons of your choice to your website.

You can:

  • Pick from 16 different designs for your social media share icons
  • Give several actions to one social media share icon 
  • Decide to give your social media icons an animation to make your visitors aware of the share icons, increasing the chance that they follow/share your blog
  • Make your social media icons ‘float’ or ‘sticky’
  • Allow visitors to subscribe to your blog by Email
  • Add ‘counts’ to your social media buttons
  • Decide to display a pop-up (on all or only on selected pages) asking people to follow/share you via your social media icons
  • Decide to display sharing-buttons and social media icons at the end of every post

The BuddyBoss Theme blends in the social share icons beautifully within the website.
