<p>LinkedIn Perfect Share detects when LinkedIn is parsing/crawling the Open Graph tags of a post/page and provides a simplified version of the contents. This allows the scraper to see the correct sharing post’s data for the provided URL; the information includes the post title, the description and the Featured Image (that is the standard content for the WordPress’ og:image field).</p>

<h4>Social Sharing By Danny</h4>
<p>The simplest sharing links possible for Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn.</p>
<p>Most WordPress plugins that add social sharing functionality are too ugly, heavy, complicated or poorly coded for my liking. This plugin aims to be better: simple, efficient and flexible.</p>
<h4>No script dependencies</h4>
<p>From itself, the buttons are actually plain text links which require <strong>no external scripts</strong>. It makes no sense to load over 50 kilobytes of scripts and styles for a functionality 95% of your users will not use.</p>
<h4>Simple, yet pretty and user-friendly</h4>
<p>You can have the plugin load two very small files to add icons and a pop-up functionality to the sharing links. This way, users do not have to leave your website after clicking a sharing option. Both files are optional and you are free to craft your own styles.</p>
<p><strong>Features</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Sharing links for Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn</li>
<li>Simple icon styles with a hover effect</li>
<li>Simple script of just 426 bytes (with no additional dependencies) which will make the various sharing links open in a pop-up window.</li>
<li>A shortcode and a template function to display the buttons anywhere you want.</li>
<li>An overridable filter to customize when and where to display the sharing links.</li>
<li>Translation ready</li>
</ul>
