  I feel this is a huge issue for most WordPress.com bloggers – sorry if it’s been suggested before.

  This page https://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/social-links-menu/ shows how to add buttons to “…your social profiles.”

  This page https://en.support.wordpress.com/add-social-media-buttons-to-your-sidebar-or-footer/ once again shows how to create buttons and “…link them to your social media services.”

  I’m in need of Share buttons visitors click on to connect them to their social media site, so they can share my website as themselves. Once again, GetSocialLive works in this manner, by going to their site, generating code, and adding that code to a Text Widget.

  I’m just wondering if there are any other options.

  I’m also aware of adding Share buttons to a static page; however, you cannot place those share buttons in an ideal place on the site.

  And the themes that come with built in social media buttons are designed to link to your personal social media site – they are not general “share this website” buttons.

  It really would be amazing to have good old “Share this Website” buttons. Not sure if it’s possible. Thanks!!!!
