Sharify for WordPress (best for Newspaper) now available (FREE!)

Hey guys,

I developed a WordPress plugin for sharing buttons on WordPress. It is perfect with the Newspaper theme 🙂

You can download it from here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/sharify

I will be adding new features to it. Please let me know if you have any suggestions 🙂

Thanks!

Dude! (as we say here in California) … thanks for building this. I haven’t tried it yet, but keeping eye on it. as you know I built something similar for our in-house CMS, and had planned to move that over to a WP plugin, and very cool you did the hard work for me 😉 Will check it once I get our ecommerce system working with mod_SPDY and Firefox (we got SPDY working properly, but then it breaks our ecom system [cubecart], but ONLY in stupid Firefox… ).

Great job!! 🙂

Thanks man 🙂 As I said, I will add more features, such as hiding a button, disable the auto-add.

🙂

Just tried it out. The buttons themselves look great, but I had to deactivate it till the next update… you need to ensure you use unique style rules! It’s currently interfering with (and by being interfered with by) my styling of <p> tags.

Another important feature is disabling certain options, but I could live without that for now. :p

nice work mehedi 😉

can you put like and share button/option together?

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I will start working on V1.1 from today 🙂

@themediumutm Can you please tell me which style is conflicting with your <p> tags?

Turns out it was a drop cap .td-post-text-content p:first-child:first-letter which I should have made .td-post-text-content > p:first-child:first-letter. (It was trying to do the first <p> in each div, I guess? Played around with it, some confusion. The divs are on different levels, for crying out loud…)

The icons are not working right now – just getting what look like glyphs. Guess the font family somehow isn’t being found, will check it out…

Oh, and the Facebook “Like” text should probably be “Share” since that’s what it does :p

Also, typo in your CSS?

.sharify
    {
        font-size: 14x;
        ...
    }

Finally, it might be breaking other shortcodes used in posts… it destroys posts with caption images and with galleries (works when Sharify is off, broken when Sharify is on). For that reason I’m turning it off for now, but somehow my posts were losing their entire WP content filters as posts if they have shortcodes: <p> tags go and the shortcodes are no longer expanded…

Yes. I have released an update with the fix 🙂

The update is now available at https://wordpress.org/plugins/sharify/ 🙂

Getting better! No longer breaks those posts.

Still having trouble with my icons, but the newspaper glyph font is also having trouble appearing on my site lately, so it might not be the plugin.

Option to disable counters to save loading time for those of us who don’t really care for counters would be great 😀

Yup, font was an issue on my end. Using Sharify now and it looks good! Just looking forward to options for which / in what order / whether to have counters on… but I can live without them for now. 🙂

Thanks for the plugin!

Sharifiy isn’t working on our site since its’ been updated to version 1.1. Also when using version 1.0 it breaks the post content layout and shortcodes.

@Thakksy It wasn’t playing well with the theme when its automatically added. Add the following code the post templates to display it:

<?php echo do_shortcode('[sharify]'); ?>

Hope that helps 🙂

Cheers, will give it a go. How is this plugin on speed and resources? Currently using shareaholic and its using way too much!

I use it on all of my sites. The CSS is minified and it is getting the counts by the “right way”. So there shouldn’t be much problems with the speed 🙂

Any idea where to place the code at the bottom of content not at bottom of comments?

Thanks for the plugin. Its a nice addition.

Question: is it possible to make the Facebook-button show the amount of FB-likes? Right now it shows the amount of FB-shares. Or is it possible to make the button show the sum of shares and likes?

I’m using ShareMetric in Chrome: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/sharemetric/lhnijlahkclijpefbcimahdcgcjbmnnp
(to check the amount of FB shares and likes)

+1 at PER123 petition. if you can made sharify to has like and share button

Hey guys,

I was quite busy last month and wasn’t able to work on the development of the plugin. However, I will work on it this week and hopefully I will be able to release an update with the request features. Here is what I will add on the next version (1.2):

• Settings Panel for the plugin — will let you enable/disable a share button
• Facebook Share Button
• Reddit counter
• CSS Imporvements

Thanks for the support so far! The plugin has more than 110 downloads and it will hopefully increase in the future.

If you’re a developer, you can clone the plugin at GitHub as well 🙂

Hi, just found out that the LinkedIn button doesn’t work. When pushed LinkedIn comes up with:

We’re sorry. Something unexpected happened and your request could not be completed. Please close this window and try again.

Also happens on the demo-site http://gdgtarena.com/2014/09/16/ecobee-3/

Any idea what may be causing this?

Hi @historiek,

Thanks for reporting the bug 🙂 I have fixed the issue and an update should be available in 1-2 hours 🙂

Thanks again!
