    Hello,
    I am enjoying the plugin apart from one thing that i have noticed in my post admin area which is, the plugin is creating lots of Custom Fields and putting values 0,2,4 etc
    The custom field are like
    fsb_show_social
    fsb_social_facebook
    fsb_social_google
    etc and many duplicates of them

    What is this and how it can be fixed??

    Mudassar,

    We store the share values for each post in your post custom fields, so the count can be pulled up without loading the social scripts.

    Each post will have 5 additional custom fields which have no impact on your site’s performance.

    This is NOT a bug.

    If for some reason we remove the plugin in future,
    will these counts be deleted?
    Will we have to delete the custom field(s)manually from database?
    Will our tweets and likes reflect with new plugin?

    The counts will not be deleted. We are looking into an easy solution that would allow us to delete the meta fields.

    However, the counts stored in the database will have NO impact on any new plugin that you use.
