  Hello everyone, I’m having a little difficulty getting the WordPress (and other social media) like and share buttons to show on blog posts. I’ve selected the correct settings by going to Dashboard>Sharing>Sharing Buttons but they aren’t showing on my posts.

  Here’s a link to one of my articles. If anyone can shed some light I’d be grateful.

  Hi @jamesdrysdale84,

  Go to the particular post from your Edit Post Screen. Then follow these steps:

  1)Click on Edit. It will open the Edit screen.
  2)On the right-hand side, you will find “Post Settings”, under which you will find the “Sharing” tab.
  3)Clicking on the “Sharing” tab will show you two check boxes:
  i)Show Sharing Buttons
  ii)Show Like Buttons
  4)Just make sure to tick them.

  Also, you can learn more about sharing here:

  Hope this helps, let me know for any further questions.

  Thanks!

  This has helped. It seems the post wasn’t updating when the settings were updated globally. Hopefully future posts will appear as intended. Thanks for the help!
