Easy jQuery Plugin For Popup Social Buttons - Share Button

Share Button is a simple jQuery plugin for creating a customizable share button that will popup a social share panel when clicking. The plugin currently supports google plus, twitter and facebook that allow your visitor to quickly share & submit your content on these most popular social networking sites.

How to use it:

1. Create a container for the social share button.

<div class="share-button"></div>

2. Include jQuery javascript library and jQuery Share Button plugin on the web page.

<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src='build/share.js'></script> 

3. Call the plugin with options.

<script>
$(function(){
$('.share-button').share({
url: 'https://www.jqueryscript.net', //  the url you want to share. default: window.location.href
title: 'Free jQuery Plugins', // 
text: 'A free jQuery Plugin website.', // text to be tweeted alongside your link, default: your page's meta description
image: 'https://www.jqueryscript.net/images/logo.png', // image to be shared (facebook-specific)
app_id: 'YOUR FACEBOOK API KEY', // facebook app id for tracking shares. if provided, will use the facebook API
background: 'rgba(255,255,255,.5)', // background color of the button, default: #e1e1e1
color: '#3B2B45', // text color of the button
button_text: 'share' // change the text of the button, default: Share
})
});
</script>

4. With network-specific options.

facebook: {
name: 'Free jQuery Plugins'
