Description

After installing and activating the plugin, simply add a tweet_button shortcode to the content editor for a post or page.

Example Shortcode:
[tweet_button tweet=”The Tweet Button is super simple to set up and increases my social media exposure” size=”large” via=”wplauncher” hashtags=”thetweetbutton,tweetinghasneverbeenthiseasy”][/tweet_button]

And, a Tweet button will appear in its place.

Check out a working example of the The Tweet Button on a post at Blog.WPLauncher.com. Click on the blue Tweet Button and see what your site visitors would see when they click on that button.

  • Set the size of the button
