Content Publicity – Social Share Buttons, Click to Tweet & Super Suggest to Google News Sites

Turn your content into a visibility machine. Content Publicity is a lightweight, privacy-friendly social sharing plugin that adds clean share buttons, a floating share bar, click-to-tweet pull-quote blocks, and an optional share counter to your WordPress posts — plus the unique “Super Suggest” feature that lets readers recommend your content to editors at Google News-approved publications.

Features

• Social share buttons — clean, modern in-content share button with multiple display styles
• Floating share bar — optional vertical sticky bar on the left side of single posts
• Click-to-Share quote blocks — Gutenberg block (and [cp_quote] shortcode) that turns a quotable sentence into one-click share moments for X, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Facebook, Bluesky and more — the modern click-to-tweet experience for every network
• Wide network support — LinkedIn, X (Twitter), Facebook, WhatsApp, Pinterest, Bluesky, Threads, Mastodon, Reddit, Telegram, Email, Copy Link
• Privacy-friendly share counter — optional aggregate share counts stored in your own database, no cookies, no third-party trackers
• Super Suggest — readers can recommend your article to editors at Newstrail.com, a Google News-approved publication, for potential editorial citation
• Embed code generator — produces clean blockquote-style embed code with proper attribution and backlinks
• Post-type targeting and per-post exclusion for fine-grained control
• WhatsApp share, Pinterest “Pin It”, Bluesky, Threads and Mastodon sharing for modern social audiences
• Copy link to clipboard for the silent shares (DMs, messaging apps) that traditional share buttons miss
• Native Web Share-friendly markup that plays nicely with mobile sharing
• Translation-ready with full i18n support and a content-publicity text domain
• Lightweight — no external dependencies, no external scripts, no jQuery for new code paths

The “Super Suggest” Feature

The unique Super Suggest button lets your engaged readers nominate your article to editors at Google News-approved publications. When a reader finds your content valuable, one click sends your article URL to editors at Newstrail.com for editorial review. If your content aligns with their coverage areas, they may cite it, feature it, or follow up — creating opportunities for high-authority backlinks and press mentions.

Click-to-Share Quote Blocks

Add the Click-to-Share Quote block in the Gutenberg editor, type or paste a quotable sentence, and pick which networks to expose. Each rendered quote becomes a one-click share moment for X, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Facebook, Bluesky, Threads, Mastodon, Reddit, Telegram, Email, or Copy Link. This is the modernized click-to-tweet pattern — every quote, every network, one click.

For Classic Editor users, the shortcode works too:

Privacy & Compliance

Content Publicity is built for privacy from the ground up:

• No user tracking, no cookies, no IP collection
• No external scripts or third-party trackers
• No data sent to external servers — every share link is a direct user-initiated link to the destination platform
• Share counter (when enabled) stores aggregate counts in your own WordPress database as post meta only — no personal information, no IP addresses, no cookies are collected or stored
• Fully GDPR-compatible out of the box
• Accessibility (WCAG)-friendly markup with ARIA labels, keyboard navigation, and screen-reader support
• No remote loading of code, fonts, or icons — all SVG brand glyphs ship inside the plugin

Compatibility

Content Publicity is tested with the latest WordPress release (7.0) and is fully compatible with PHP 8.0, 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, and 8.4. New code added in 1.2.0 uses modern, vanilla-PHP idioms throughout — no eval(), no create_function(), no deprecated APIs. The plugin works on every actively-supported PHP version and gracefully handles older WordPress installs down to the declared 6.0 minimum.

External Service Disclosure

The Super Suggest button is a standard <a href> link that the user clicks to open Newstrail.com (operated by Sitetrail). No data is automatically transmitted by the plugin — the user explicitly clicks the link to navigate to that site in a new tab. Newstrail’s own privacy policy applies once the user lands there. Disabling the Super Suggest toggle removes the button entirely.

More from Sitetrail: The plugin’s settings page also links to Sitetrail Newspass (premium news-distribution service), and two sister WordPress plugins from the same team — AI Live Chat PRO (AI chatbot for WordPress + WooCommerce) and Woo Toolbox (WooCommerce utility suite). These links appear only on the plugin’s own settings page and a single entry in the row meta on the Plugins admin screen — never on the WordPress dashboard, never as admin notices, never on the front-end. No tracking parameters are appended to any URL.
