<h3>Comment Appearance</h3>
In Settings → Social Bridge, you can configure how social media comments appear:

<li>Styled differently: Comments retain their social media identity but appear in the same section</li>
<li>Separate section: Social media comments appear below WordPress comments</li>
</ul>
<h3>Extending the Plugin</h3>
Social Bridge supports extensions for additional social media platforms. Developers can create add-on plugins that register new platform integrations using the provided API.
To create an extension:
<ol>
<li>Create a new plugin that depends on Social Bridge</li>
<li>Create a class that extends <code>Social_Bridge_Integration</code></li>
<li>Implement the required abstract methods</li>
<li>Register your integration using the <code>social_bridge_integrations</code> filter</li>
</ol>
Example:
<pre><code>`php
</code></pre>
// Register a new integration 
function my_plugin_register_integration($integrations) { 
 $integrations[‘twitter’] = new My_Twitter_Integration(); 
 return $integrations; 
} 
add_filter(‘social_bridge_integrations’, ‘my_plugin_register_integration’); 
 `
<h3>External Services</h3>
Social Bridge includes built-in integration for two social media platforms: Bluesky and Mastodon. 
When enabled, Social Bridge interacts with the APIs of these platforms to retrieve data 
from social media posts specified by authors on your site.
These integrations do not transmit any user data from your site to the third-party 
platforms. However, they will use the authentication or API credentials you provide 
in the Social Bridge settings to access the respective platforms.
The plugin will only communicate with these platforms when explicitly configured to 
do so—such as when a post on your site includes social media links in the Social Interactions metabox.
After configured both in the plugin settings and on individual posts, Social Bridge will routinely 
re-communicate with these platforms, in order to update its cache of social media comments, likes and shares.
You can review Bluesky’s privacy policies <a href="https://bsky.social/about/support/privacy-policy" rel="nofollow ugc">here</a> 
and <a href="https://bsky.social/about/support/network-services-privacy-policy" rel="nofollow ugc">here</a>.
For Mastodon, each server maintains its own privacy policy. You should review the policy 
of the specific server you use. As an example, the mastodon.social policy is 
available <a href="https://mastodon.social/privacy-policy" rel="nofollow ugc">here</a>.
