  I am attempting to add the Pin It feature to my blog to allow readers to share my pictures easily. I’ve read a few guides although these are for self hosted blogs. I currently use the Theme Vigilance on a wordpress blog. Is it possible?

  My blog is apdinteriors-blog.com

  Thank you

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi Andrew, you can add a Pinterest button below each post by heading over to Settings > Sharing:

  https://apdinteriors.wordpress.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=sharing

  Drag the Pinterest button from the Available Services section to the Enabled Services section. This will allow visitors to pin images from your post.

  If you need further help, just let me know!

  Thanks so much Kathryn! I guess this is the only way to do it rather than the rollover icon appearing?

  You have a choice of a few button styles, which you can select from the dropdown menu here: http://cl.ly/image/2z3R0v3X091w

  Some of them do change a little when you roll over them – feel free to choose the one you like best.
