A simple, easy to use, easy to configure social bar that will allow a user to add social share links to their WordPress website. This plugin came from the idea implemented with the popular Share Bar plugin (https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/sharebar/), but offers many improvements:
<ul>
<li>Completely new, easier to understand code base making it easier for possible community contribution and personal customization</li>
<li>No additional database tables, but instead utilizes a private custom post type for social link buttons</li>
<li>Better control over where the bar appears allowing for per-post type filtering</li>
<li>Less obtrusive implementation for better caching and minification plugin compatibility as well as control over when the plugin is loaded</li>
<li>Simpler administrative interface with drag and drop ordering capabilities</li>
</ul>
Works in IE7+, Firefox 2+, Chrome 2+, Safari 3+ and Opera 9+; vertical following does not work in IE6. Utilizes jQuery for JavaScript processing, although it is setup to work properly with other libraries, your experience may vary. Requires PHP 5.2+.
This plugin is free to use and is not actively supported by the author, but will be monitored for serious bugs that may need correcting.

Simple Social Bar

A simple, easy to use, easy to configure social share bar that follows you down the page for sharing your posts.

The Flare plugin isn’t in active development because we’ve created a hosted app version of Flare that works with virtually any website or CMS, including WordPress.
Flare Lite is here, and it’s awesome – go <a href="http://app.filament.io/users/register" rel="nofollow ugc">sign up for a free Filament account</a> to use it.
For more info on the differences, check out <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-few-of-the-common-questions-about-the-plugin" rel="ugc">this Forum post</a>.
