Description

- Simple, clean and responsive default design which can be easily updated to your liking
- Only 3 requests and 3.5kB of code
- Vanilla JS to query Sharedcount.com API, no jQuery dependency
- No cookies or tracking code
- Position above or below the post
- Use [lfbtn] shortcode to place the buttons manually. The shortcode has no extra options
