• “Finally” a sharing plugin that is free but is quality and does just what it says it does!

    Many options, customizations to meet your needs. I can’t say it is perfect but pretty darn close.

    As the owner of a new blog/news site it is very hard to donate or pay for additional things and these folks (Sassy Social Share) have made it ‘affordable’aka FREE with nothing negative as far as I can tell.

    Great plugin with no adverse affect to using it in terms of site loading speed etc. I can’t afford to give a lot but I will be making a small donation shortly IF there is no minimum.

    Thank you so much for making an awesome, quality, social share plugin. Thanks for thinking of, and caring for the little people ??

    Don’t mention it ??

    By the way I was wondering if it would be possible to add a couple of things to your plugin.

    1) A way to set padding around the buttons (top: x, Right: x, Bottom: x, left: x) because currently I have to now add a break return manually when I use the button on the top as it does not leave enough space between itself and the text.

    2) Make the button title on or off independently for top and bottom usage. I say that because I found that using the button title was desirable for the bottom but not so for when used at the top. It would be nice to turn off the title for each location independently.

    3). This one is more a comment: I noticed on mobile it does does not show the icon only a colored button. I’m not sure if it’s just on my phone ( I tested it on a very old Samsung Galaxy 1) maybe it shows fine on newer phones?

    That would be all my suggestions/comment for now ??

    Yes, you can do this by adding following CSS in Custom CSS option in Miscellaneous section at plugin options page in admin area:

    .heateor_sss_horizontal_sharing{
        margin-top:10px!important;
        margin-right:10px!important;
        margin-bottom:10px!important;
        margin-left:10px!important;
    }

    You can change the 10px according to your needs.

    2) Make the button title on or off independently for top and bottom usage. I say that because I found that using the button title was desirable for the bottom but not so for when used at the top. It would be nice to turn off the title for each location independently.

    Do you mean the title that pops up on hovering the mouse over share icons? For now, it’s not possible. We will try to include this feature in upcoming releases.

    3). This one is more a comment: I noticed on mobile it does does not show the icon only a colored button. I’m not sure if it’s just on my phone ( I tested it on a very old Samsung Galaxy 1) maybe it shows fine on newer phones?

    We just re-checked, it’s fine. It might be something related to your phone.

    Hi there.

    I applied the CSS as your directed and works perfectly, thank you!

    TO clarify #2. Nope I didn’t mean the hover descriptions for the buttons but rather the share button TITLE (The text to display above the sharing interface). You should make it so that you can turn the title on or off for the top and bottom button placements independently if possible. It’s just not clean for when using it at the top for my usage.

    And thanks for checking and confirming #3. I kinda had a feeling it might have been just my phone. I will check on a newer phone to see for myself but I take your word for it.

    Okay. We will keep it in mind for future releases.

    Sure.

    Hi, it seems that I have a new minor issue. I’m not sure exactly when but I would say about a few days ago it seems that my twitter share count stopped working on the button.

    Any ideas?

    Hmm, actually I just tried something and I think it fixed it.

    a few days ago I had added a filter to Google Analytics to not have those stupid Russian ghost visitors on my server (the ones from Samsara etc..) thry just connect to your site and it doesn’t show up in stats and analytics just shows them sitting on home page though that may not be all that they are doing.

    Anyway they seem to come through different site names and lately they are using social aliases like Twitter and Reddit as the referral so I had added them to a filter, I’m guessing that is what was causing the count to not show…

    UPDATE: Nope, I was wrong it seems it didn’t have anything to do with the filter because I re added the filter and the Twitter count is still working again.

    Oh well looks like all is fine again.

    Yes, this problem had nothing to do with those filters. Our plugin depends on third party services for Twitter share count (NewShareCounts and OpenShareCount), depending on which one you have chosen at plugin options page in admin area.
