Social media plugins have one thing in common: they often incurr a lot of scripts and stylesheets, and offer a large range of options. If all you need is a few buttons to enable your visitors to share your page or post, this snippet from Crunchify suits the bill perfectly! It contains sharing links to Twitter, Facebook, Google Plus, Whatsapp, LinkedIn and Pinterest.
