Social Buttons WordPress Plugin
Selectively add social network buttons to your posts, or theme design.
Selectively add social network buttons such as digg, sphinn, etc to your posts or theme design.
I wrote this plugin because I wanted finer control over where and which buttons were placed on my site and in my posts.
Sometimes I have marketing posts so I want to link to Sphinn, but sometimes I have technical posts so Reddit would be a better choice. This plugin is flexible enough that if you want the same button in every post, then you can still modify your theme very easily to accomplish this.
You may place as many buttons, in as many places in your posts as you like.
This plugin handles: - Digg - Reddit (all button styles) - Delicious - Sphinn - Dzone (all button styles) - StumbleUpon
For Your Posts
Use the following in your posts: [SB button 1, ..., button N]
Here's an example post...Hey, check out my new buttons!
