Floating Social Media Links free WordPress plugin
Description
Floating (Social Media) Links is designed to allow anyone to add a simple floating frame to their wordpress website/blog, which contains icons and links to their social media and/or partners’ websites. And before you read too far you should know that I’m among those who strongly dislike “floating” animations, so this plugin does a clean simple “stay-in-place” (sticky) float with no animation for an incredibly clean look. The plugin is extremely flexible because of its custom links. In addition to a couple of built-in social media links, you can upload your own icons/logos that link to anything. You could create a small, persistent navigation bar, link to partner sites, link to sites for other parts of your organization, link to any of your social media, or any combination of the above. On the social media side, the purposes of this plugin are highly customizable options and clean and simple linked icons rather than the cluitter of numerous “share” buttons (although popular “action buttons” can still be included). Instead of simply asking visitors to acknowledge their appreciation of your work (by liking or following), this encourages them to also check out your social media content, increasing real social interaction (more so than simply using page “likes” to indicate interaction). Also, as native OS/browser support for “share” features becomes the norm, it is redundant to clutter your site with buttons that share content. This plugin features a refreshingly user-oriented interface for the admin that scales to users with varying desire for customization. If you want a quick set-up, you can focus on the most commonly used options and pick a frame theme that works with your site. If you like customizing stuff, you can configure the detailed components of everything from cookies to colors to z-indicies. The plugin followsa principles that prevent
