Although I set up almost a dozen blog, I still forget how to do things because there’s much to tweak to get things done.
I learned how to display excerpt on the homepage of a blog with Genesis Theme.
Recently, I installed a GeneratePress Premium Theme on my other blog and can’t figure out why the Jetpack Sharing Buttons are missing.
It turned out that I had to do a bunch of stuff to display the sharing buttons.
How to Display Sharing Buttons
I checked my other blog to trace the steps that should be done to use the different Jetpack features.
Step 1: Install Jetpack and connect it to a WordPress.com account.
Step 2: Go to Jetpack > Sharing > enable “Add sharing buttons to your posts and pages.”
Click “Configure your sharing buttons” or follow the next step. You can also enable the Like buttons.
Step 3: Go to WordPress Dashboard > Settings > Sharing. Choose what social media icons you want to display on posts and pages.
Another resource: learn more on how to tweak the sharing buttons.
If I could only have two icons, I’ll choose Facebook and Twitter.
These are the social media icons I use in Social Warfare, another plugin to consider if you don’t want to install Jetpack.
Aside from Jetpack, what social media plugin do you use?
