How can I custom-make big Facebook and Twitter share button like this?

2 Views

First of all, I’m aware that the FB “share” button has been deprecated but the thing is that I happened to find this site 22words.com and really like the big FB and Twitter share buttons appearing at the end of all posts.

Does anyone know how to do it exactly like that?

  1. Just use:

    <a href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=THELINKTOSHARE'>Share on Facebook</a>

    and add your own styles to make it look however you want.

    For Twitter use:

    <a href="https://twitter.com/home?status=THELINKTOSHARE">Share on Twitter</a>

  2. Using Your Facebook user name and password log in FacebookDeveloper Site

    Then click DOC Menu –> Sharing –> Social Plugins

    In that page you can see 11 Facebook plugin(Like,Share,etc) codes for JS,JQ,HTMl,etc are available..

    Just copy the code and past in into your source code… Simple 🙂

  4. To actually insert this into WP paste this in your functions.php file:
    See the codex 

    add_filter( 'the_content', 'my_the_content_filter', 20 );

function my_the_content_filter( $content ) {
        $content .= '<div class="social"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u='.get_permalink().'">Share on Facebook</a>';
        $content .= '<a href="https://twitter.com/home?status='.get_permalink().'">Share on Twitter</a>
        </div>';   
    return $content;    // Returns the content.
}

    Add your images and CSS.
