What it does
AMP pages are stripped down for mobile readers, and many regular social sharing plugins either break or disappear on them. That leaves image-heavy posts without an easy way for readers to save pictures to Pinterest. This plugin is built for AMP environments and fills that gap by adding a Pinterest sharing icon directly over each image in your content, giving mobile visitors a quick way to pin what they see.
Setup is plug and play. Once the extension is turned on, it starts adding the icons to your images with no configuration needed. The icons are responsive, so they display and work on both desktop and mobile screens. It is designed to run alongside other AMP plugins, including AMP by Automattic, and it also handles images shown on archive pages. It suits recipe blogs, travel sites, craft and design blogs, and any site where images do much of the storytelling.
Best for
- Image-heavy blogs running AMP pages
- Recipe, travel and craft sites with Pinterest audiences
- Site owners wanting Pinterest sharing without configuration

Images that appear on archive pages display properly with the plugin active, so sharing covers more than single posts.
Questions about Pinterest for AMP
Do I need to set anything up for the Pinterest icons to appear?
No. The plugin is plug and play. As soon as it is active, it adds a Pinterest sharing icon to each image in your content on your AMP pages, with no settings to adjust first.
Will it work with the AMP plugin I already use?
It is designed to work alongside popular AMP plugins, and AMP by Automattic is one of them. The extension is built specifically for AMP environments, so it fits into an existing AMP setup on your WordPress site.
Do the Pinterest icons look right on mobile phones?
Yes. The sharing icons are fully responsive, so they display and function on mobile devices as well as desktop screens. Since AMP pages are mostly viewed on phones, this keeps pinning easy for your main audience.
Does it add icons to images on archive pages too?
Yes. Images shown on archive pages display correctly with the plugin, so visitors browsing category or archive listings still see your images and can share them.
