In each case you can override the global setting in the edit post view.
**Short code and page template installation **
- If you want to place the buttons manually to your post: use the short code

if (function_exists('rns_reactions')) { rns_reactions(); }

FAQ
Why should I use React & Share reaction buttons? Site owners tell us that while their traffic numbers look good, people comment and share their posts less than before. One-click reactions – similar to Facebook or Linkedin – are a great way to activate your readers and get valuable feedback on your articles.
People react up to 30 times more than they comment!
