Disable Share Daddy buttons on select Categories

    Unfortunately, and for a plugin such as Jetpack, you only offer a single choice when it comes to showing the share buttons on what you select, but there are no further conditions.

    If I select “Posts“, the problem is that I have many categories that should not have them showing. Is there no method to choose where to show or hide them without using CSS to “display: none” or having to manually disable theme on a per-post basis?

    It would be great to not have any share code load in the locations I want them disabled.

    Using CSS would likely be the easiest way to do it, since you can target categories with it.

    Otherwise, we have a filter that you can use to show/hide the sharing buttons, but customizing that filter would fall outside the scope of support we can provide. Here’s a link to that filter:
    https://developer.jetpack.com/hooks/sharing_show/

    That should help you get started – you would need to write a custom function that uses that filter and target the specific categories you want to target since the filter itself doesn’t have options to target a specific category.
