    Hi,
    I have styled my own social sharing buttons because I don’t want to use a plugin.
    I want to include a share count like in this image.
    Please assist.

    Hi there,

    that would require custom development, its not a simple task as the counts have the be confirmed and stored in a database. I would suggest using a plugin if that is a requirement. The Shared Counts plugin does it and is lightweight or their is Nova Share which is a premium plugin which also does that and is super lightweightt

    Unfortunately that is out of the scope of our forum.
    Code is code, whether it comes as a plugin or is custom developed. The advantage of using a plugin from the WordPress repository or a respected developer is the code will have been approved for security and coding standards and if it still being maintained you will get updates and support.

    Hi David,
    I figured out how to make a share count but now the problem is with styling. There so many spaces showing up and down and I wanna remove those unnecessary spaces. Please assist.

    Hi there,

    The content is added by a plugin, so it’s actually out of the scope of this support forum as it’s not GP related.

    Since it’s not very complicated, you can try this CSS to remove the margin below the social share count:

    p.wplogout-social-sharing.wplogout-social-count {
        margin-bottom: 0;
    }

    If there’s more styling requests regarding this, I would suggest contact with the plugin’s support.

    Thanks for your understanding 🙂

    Hi Ying,
    No, its not a plugin but a hook that I created.
    But I’m really thankful to you as you have been of great help 😀

    Good job, but as you can see the code is not from GP or WP.

    Anyway your understanding is appreciated 🙂
