What it does
Many site owners want visitors to pass their posts and pages along on social media, but adding share buttons often means hand-editing code or fighting with a design that does not match the rest of the site. This addon handles that job from within Elementor. You add share buttons to any Elementor section or widget area, then adjust how they look using the same editor you already use to build your pages.
The plugin gives you five button styles to pick from, custom color options so the buttons fit your branding, and more than 200 entry animation effects for drawing attention to them. The buttons are responsive and retina ready, so they display cleanly on desktops, tablets and phones. It also supports right-to-left languages and ships with .po and .mo files for translation. Elementor is required, and the plugin suits bloggers, marketers and business owners who build with it.
Best for
- Bloggers building their sites with Elementor
- Marketers who want shareable landing pages and posts
- Multilingual or right-to-left language Elementor sites
