Social Sharing Plugin: which of the millions to choose? (5 posts)

  • I am rebuilding my website and am lost in all the social follow and sharing plugins. My old website was becoming a fat sloth because of alle heavy plugins i was using and I really want to avoid that. Anyone really crazy about his plugin/or solution?

    Please let me now, thanks a bunch. 

  • Hi Gideon, I use Slick Social Share Buttons by Lee Chestnut
    You can get an idea of how it looks on my blog.

    I’ve used several social buttons, but I like this one the best. It stands out. It scrolls with the reader, and it incorporates all the social media sites that are important to me.

    Good luck Gideon! :)

  • @gideonattwell I coded mine in manually into the template of my theme. I’m not a fan of having many plugins if at all possible. :)

    Also created a post on how to do it – usually works with most WordPress templates.

  • Thanks @kristi-hine!

    Anything to reduce WP Plugins is a great thing but most people don’t know how to manually do things like that so really appreciate you explaining how to go about it!

    Cheers!

    Miss Kristi Klaus… I do believe you are one of Santa’s little helpers… if not the heiress apparent yourself.

    Thanky, thanky… as always. Ho, ho, ho, hee, hee.
