The MP Share Center allows you to easily add share buttons to your posts and pages.
The MP Share Center allows you to easily add share buttons to your posts and pages.
The plugin will add Facebook Like, Twitter Tweet, LinkedIn Share, Pinterest Pin, Pocket and email buttons or boxes, above or below the front page/post/page/archive/search pages if you enable these options.
For the Facebook Like Button, the plugin will automatically take the first image from a post and use that as the thumbnail.
This plugin loads Javascript in the footer, which improves page load (by allowing content to appear first) and therefore benefits SEO and search engine ranking.
You can display the MP Share Center on any page type with the use of the shortcode [mp_share_center]
. The shortcode defaults to use the buttons format. To choose the boxes format, simply add the type='boxes'
parameter, ie: [mp_share_center type='boxes']
. If you want to insert the call to action via the shortcode, use [mp_share_center type='cta']
. Which social networks the shortcode displays is controlled on the MP Share Center Settings page.

directoryYes, you can. As of version 2.0, you can select to display only the social networks that you want to display.
Yes, as of version 3.1 you can change the font of the Call to Action. As of version 5.0, you can now use any font found in Google Fonts.
Unfortunately, the Pinterest button is different from the Bookmarklet. With the button, the image that is being pinned must be defined, as opposed to the bookmarklet which allows you to choose from any image on the page. For now, the only option is to grab the first image from the post. A future update, may contain the ability to allow you to select a specific image to pin from the post menu.
The more Social Networks included, the more Javascript needed to run the plugin. Right now, the five most important social buttons for driving traffic to your site are included in order to optimize speed and share. As the popularity of social networks rise and fall, the plugin will be adjusted.
You can find the post ID by looking at the Address bar when editing a post or page. You will see something like “wp-admin/post.php?post=128&action=edit”. The post id in this case is “128”
