Sidebar Share Box with Counter

    Does your plug-in allow me to put a banner in the sidebar next to each article with a counter, some custom text, and social sharing buttons for Facebook & Twitter?

    For instance I might want to say something like, “This Article Has Been Read 7352 Times, Help Us Reach 20,000” in a banner in the side bar, with share buttons underneath.

    Doesn’t have to scroll

    Seems pretty basic but I can’t seem to find one that does this.

  • For read count you can use the mashshare add-on “Pageviews” and than use the following php code in a sidebar template:

    <?php
global $post;
echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'mashpv_pageviews_count', true);
?>

    If you want to show only the shares you can use the short code
    [mashshare shares="true" buttons="false"]

    Thanks Rene I don’t just want a read count – I want to be able to put a banner in the side bar using a widget, where I can have some text, a page views count, and the share buttons, as I explained above.

    Happy to pay for a widget or plug-in that achieves this effect. It isn’t clear to me that your plug-in does this.
