Sharing buttons shortcode for Jetpack

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 100% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   Hunted this plugin down when looking for a solution to fix Jetpack share buttons not displaying on front page. Now using it on other site for control of placement

   There is a big gain after the line of the sharing (If I use with “more” button) I need a “class” that differentiates the short-code lines from the rest of the original share jetpack lines. I can’t fix that in scc, only what I has been added.

   Hi! This was exactly what I was looking for. I didn’t matter even if this plugin didn’t work. (In fact plugin just made my whole site disappear until i switched it off. Heh. 🙂 ) I opened up the plugin’s code (which is really just few lines) and took out what I needed. Following lines I added to my own custom theme file ‘shorcodes.php’, which I call in the head of each page, and yes, it works. 🙂 function tweakjp_sd_shortcode() { if ( function_exists( 'sharing_display' ) ) { return ' <div class="shortcoded-share-buttons">'. sharing_display().' </div> '; } } add_shortcode( 'jpshare', 'tweakjp_sd_shortcode' ); So thanks! You made me saving a lot of trouble to find out how to call the Jetpack share buttons otherwise. 🙂
