Adding Social Media Buttons to Posts

[Anonymous]

Hi, is there a good plugin or tutorial on how to add social media buttons to my blog posts?

What would be just stellar if it there is a way Contango can do it in the theme design, and have it show up to the left of the post. Any possibility?

Thanks very much,
Arjun

Contango Built-In

Arjun, we always try our best to follow WordPress guidelines in coding. There are several things like shortcodes etc, which have missed to our themes due to “Lock In Effect”

To understand the lock in effect, here is the excellent article by Justin Tadlock

Hi Admin,

The Contango social media widget is missing ‘Instragram’. Can you add this to the next update please? That would be awesome!

Thanks,
