Social sharing tools for WordPress
Social Snap Pro is a social sharing plugin for WordPress built to help websites encourage sharing, grow social followings, and promote published content across social networks. It extends the core Social Snap experience with advanced tools for social sharing, publishing, login, and audience engagement.
The plugin supports share buttons for major social networks and actions, including Facebook, X, LinkedIn, Mix, email, print, and copy link. Share buttons can be placed before or after content, in a floating sidebar, on media, through shortcodes, with widgets, or using Gutenberg blocks. Template tags are also available for placing buttons within theme or plugin code.
Pro features for promotion and engagement
- Social Login: allow users to log in to the website through their preferred social media service.
- Social Auto-Poster: automatically post content to social networks when new posts or pages are published.
- Boost Old Posts: bring older posts back into social promotion by automatically posting them on social networks.
- Social Content Locker: ask visitors to share a page before they access locked content.
- Share-count recovery: retain or recover share counts as part of the Pro sharing feature set.
- Social share meta tags: provide social sharing metadata for promoted content.
- URL shortening: use Bitly URL shortening with the social sharing tools.
Flexible button placement and design
Share buttons can be shown individually or with total share counts. You can change their order and labels, show or hide labels, select from multiple shapes, choose three button sizes, display tooltips, and control spacing. Buttons can also be disabled on selected individual pages or hidden on mobile devices for specific placements.
Choose which networks and actions appear directly on the page and place additional options inside a More Networks button. Content buttons can appear before content, after content, or in both positions. A vertical floating bar can remain fixed to the left or right, while media buttons can add sharing or Pinterest Save functionality to images.
Following and Click to Tweet
Social Snap Pro also supports social follow buttons and fan counters for Facebook, X, Pinterest, Tumblr, Mix, and Instagram. These controls give visitors a direct way to follow selected social profiles, with customization options for the displayed follow elements and counters.
Click to Tweet boxes can be added to posts, pages, and sidebars without custom styling or code. Six designed styles are available. You can append the page link, add a via username, and suggest up to two accounts for visitors to follow after tweeting.
Performance, responsive design, and installation
Social Snap loads asynchronously and uses lightweight SVG icons. The interface is responsive for mobile, tablet, laptop, and desktop screens, while the vector icons are designed to remain clear at different sizes.
Install Social Snap Pro through the WordPress plugin installation process and activate it. Configure the networks, button placements, labels, counts, and display rules for the site. Then add social login, auto-posting, old-post promotion, content locking, or Click to Tweet elements according to the website’s publishing and engagement workflow.
