Social Share buttons after post and menu

Hi
I would like to add social share buttons after posts / pages / woo products without plug in. Is it possible?
Note: I am not a coding expert but can follow any guide / documentation.
Thanks in advance.
Hi there,
yes it is possible but it would require custom development.
Code is code - whether you add it directly to your site or via a plugin it is all the same.
I would recommend use a light weight sharing plugin like GP Social Share to do this.
Ok. Then I prefer plug in.
I checked GP plug in. It appears they have not updated for the past 9 months. Is it safe to use it in terms of compatibility? OR do you suggest any other plug in?
Probably as there's not been anything to update :)
Otherwise this comes highly recommended:
Fine. Will try.
Thanks for the support.
I have installed the plug in. But I didn't see any settings there? Do I need to add anything else?
I want to display share buttons at the end of each post, and also at header / menu / left side etc if possible.
Which plugin did you go for ?
GP Social Share.
I have updated the site. Pls check if possible.
You will find it settings in Dashboard > Appearance > GP Social
1) How if I do not want some buttons in those? (Ex: pinterest, google +)
2) It seems I can't place it in multiple places (navigation / sidebar and below post)?
3) I tried to place it in primary navigation (inside_navigation). But see the result on my site :)
Hi there,
1. I believe you would just remove the icon SVG from those fields in the settings.
2. You'd have to ask the author this - there may be a way to add it in multiple places built-in.
3. How did you add it to the navigation? Using their settings? What did it look like?
