Set location of Share Buttons in theme php file

Yes, you can use this:

if( function_exists( 'shared_counts' ) {
	shared_counts()->front->display();
}

You can also pass the following parameters to the display method:
– Location (adds a CSS class to the shared-counts-wrap so you can apply location-specific styling)
– Echo, whether you want it to echo or return the markup
– Style, specify a button style for this location, overriding the site-wide default style
– Post ID, specify a post ID different than the current post (ex: for a custom loop)

For instance, if you wanted to add a “sidebar-top” location that uses the icon style (different from the style you specified in Settings > Shared Counts) you can use this:

if( function_exists( 'shared_counts' ) {
	shared_counts()->front->display( $location = 'sidebar-top', $echo = true, $style = 'icon' );
}

Thank you!

I think the code is just missing a closing ) at the end.
