Social sharing tools for WordPress
WP Socializer PRO helps you add social sharing and follow features throughout your WordPress site. The plugin supports inline share icons, floating or sticky share bars, mobile share bars, follow profile icons, selected-text share popups, shortcodes, and widgets. These options let you place sharing and profile links where they are most useful, including above or below post content, alongside scrolling content, in sidebars, or in custom locations.
The plugin is responsive and adapts its display for smaller screens. You can configure how floating bars, inline share icons, and follow icons behave on mobile devices, including moving a floating share bar to the bottom of the screen and setting a custom responsive width. Rules can also be used to show share icons on specific pages.
PRO capabilities
Create custom social icons
WP Socializer PRO lets you create icons for additional social networks or profile URLs. You can select an icon color, use a custom icon image, or use a Font Awesome icon. Custom icons can be used across the plugin’s features and in shortcodes, giving you more control when a built-in icon does not suit your requirements.
Control shared information
For individual content, you can customize the share URL, share title, and Twitter tweet text. This is useful when the default information does not match the message you want visitors to share. The PRO version also supports setting a short URL for sharing.
Use Bitly short links
WP Socializer PRO can use Bitly to create short links for posts and pages. You can set a custom short link and track clicks through the Bitly dashboard, providing a shorter sharing format when full URLs are not preferred.
Track social interactions
Share and follow icon clicks can be tracked with Google Analytics. The plugin supports Universal Analytics, Google Analytics 4, and Google Tag Manager, allowing you to review interaction activity in your analytics setup.
Practical site uses
Use inline or floating buttons to encourage visitors to share articles, products, or other content. Add follow icons or social profile widgets to help visitors find your profiles. The plugin also includes widgets for Facebook pages, Twitter feeds, Pinterest content, and follow-me icons. Share, profile, and share-link shortcodes provide another way to place these tools in custom layouts.
WP Socializer includes more than 50 social network icons, along with choices for icon layouts, sizes, shapes, hover effects, colors, backgrounds, alignment, custom text, and hover text. It also supports Facebook and Pinterest share counts, comments counts, total counts, and recovery of share counts from HTTP or HTTPS.
Installation and setup
Install WP Socializer PRO on your WordPress site, then configure the sharing, follow, responsive, icon, and tracking options for your preferred layout. Add features through the available settings, widgets, or shortcodes, and use custom icons or share details where needed.
