Sk Share Counter Wordpress Plugin - Rating, Reviews, Demo & Download
Plugin Description
Sk Share Counter adds lightweight social sharing buttons with a displayed total share count. It supports vertical floating sidebars, bottom sticky bars, dual placement, shortcode output, network ordering, brand/custom colors, manual base counts, per-post multipliers, and a global multiplier.
The plugin also includes recovery tools for older share counts:
- Import counts from common WordPress post meta keys used by older share-count plugins.
- Optionally recover old ShareThis totals from ShareThis’s public count API.
- Store recovered counts locally in post meta after import.
- Add an exact old ShareThis URL per post when counts were saved under a previous permalink or domain.
If a post has no calculated count, the plugin displays a stable fallback count from 6 to 17 instead of showing zero. The fallback is deterministic per post, so it does not change on every page load.
External Services
This plugin can optionally connect to the ShareThis count API at:
https://count-server.sharethis.com/v2.0/get_counts
This request is only made when an administrator enables the “Recover old ShareThis totals” option or runs the bulk legacy import with that option enabled. The plugin sends the post URL being checked so ShareThis can return the old count for that URL. The returned count is saved locally in WordPress post meta.
