Description
This plugin is the most efficient way to integrate the important social share buttons like twitter, facebook like, google +1 (plus one), LinkedIn, stumbleupon and Pinterest in three different position and styles.
-
Automatically display the social share buttons Above the post, below the post, both above and below or floating left side of post.
-
Flat/Round border style with/without background color. All easily configurable through settings.
-
Javascript is by default loaded in footer (recommended). This is the most efficient way to load scripts for social share buttons. This will make sure that your site contents are loaded first and the script loading do not interfere with them. Also site loading speed is better by doing so which is an important criteria for SEO.
Option to load the script in header as well, if you wish to. -
Left side floating option is the latest trend these days. The top and left spacing can be configured according to your site layout. Using simple CSS and not ajax for better performance. Also floating bar can be fixed on that position or absolute and can be configured easily through settings.
-
Option to display on home page, static pages, category, tag, archive pages.
-
Shortcode [tfg_social_share] which can be inserted in test for any post or pages to display the socail share bar.
-
Add a custom field “disable_social_share” with value “yes” to disable social share for specific pages or posts.
-
Facebook Like thumbnail will now display thumbnail specific to the post or page.
-
Adjust width of individual social share button configure count display.
-
Option to manually display the share box at any position.
-
Option to disable on Mobile Devices (iPad, iPhone, Blackberry, Nokia, Android, Opera Mini)

Reviews
Abandoned plugin
Plugin seems abandoned. It throws many notices and warnings in the latest versions of WP. Not recommended.
Could be good, but BAD support ruins it!
I have to agree with girlswithguns, who commented on the poor support for this plugin.
I managed to get the plugin working on an earlier version of WP, but with the release of WP 4, the Twitter count went away (when floating on the left of the page). Comments to the developer have brought no changes. We are now up to WP 4.4.1 and still no fix. I have since installed another social plugin that does not display the counts at all. Better to have no counts, than to have a blank space where the count should be.
There are some bugs reported when logging is enabled, but they don’t seem to cause any problems. It’s just shows that the shabby support is matched by shabby development.
It worked as advertised for a while. But it is as if the developer just put it out for download and then forgot about it. This could have been a good plugin, too. Bummer…
