HTML Social Share Buttons

توضیحات

HTML Social Share Buttons adds server-rendered HTML and CSS share buttons and
profile links to posts, pages, sidebars, and builder layouts. By default, the
plugin adds no frontend JavaScript. Bundled icons load from your own site, and
the plugin adds no tracking scripts.

Use the Social Share or Social Links block, automatic placement, the classic
widget, Elementor, WPBakery, a shortcode, or PHP. Choose from six bundled icon
sets and square or circle buttons.

Why this plugin:

• HTML + CSS: Server-rendered share and profile links with no frontend plugin JavaScript.
• Private by default: Bundled icons load from your site; the plugin adds no tracking scripts.
• Place anywhere: Automatic before/after and floating placement, two blocks, a widget, Elementor, WPBakery, shortcodes, and PHP.
• Share and follow separately: Share actions open a composer for the current page; profile links open the configured profile or email destination.
• Current destinations: Facebook, X, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Telegram, Bluesky, WhatsApp, Reddit, email, and an optional Copy link button.
• Choose the presentation: Legacy preserves the existing pack behavior; Minimal, Framed, and Soft shadow add modern frontend styles.

Other features:

• Optional global profile/contact links with per-placement inherit or suppress controls.
• Audience controls for the content author, other logged-in users, and logged-out visitors.
• Bootstrap Solid as the default for new installations, plus Flat, Long Shadow, Prajin, and Tabler Outline.
• Existing content configured with the historical Default pack keeps rendering it without migration.
• Square buttons in every set; circle buttons in Flat, Long Shadow, Prajin, Bootstrap Solid, and Tabler Outline.
• Responsive floating rails that become centered, wrapping rows at 600px and below.
• Per-network URL templates and exclusions by post/page ID, slug, or searchable content.
• Sample share-template previews with helpful diagnostics, without saving or opening a share service.
• Translation-ready admin and editor strings.

Shortcode examples:

[zm_sh_btn iconset="long-shadows" iconset_type="square" icons="facebook,x,linkedin,pinterest,mail" class="in_widget"]

[html-social-share-buttons iconset="tabler-outline" iconset_type="circle" profile_links_mode="inherit"]

The historical [zm_sh_btn] tag remains supported. Use class="in_widget"
for a horizontal row.
