Most of the other plug and play options (not manually adding the coding) are paid. This is perfect for what I needed and not too difficult. And every platform/channel you could need!

It simply works!

Vladimir Unguru September 3, 2024 1 reply

I spent half a day testing a dozen sharing plugins, and they all had major flaws. I don’t expect everything to always work perfectly from the start, WP is a heterogeneous environment and often the CSS of different plugins interfere more or less. Fortunately I’m a coder and can compensate for some such unwanted effects. I really got involved in finding solutions, but things were too much out of control. But unlike all the others, Sassi simply worked perfectly from the start. Almost. The only thing I had to do was to hide some icons generated by another plugin that handles external links. And that was it!

awesome plugin
