Hi Chloe
Good to hear from you.
One option might be to use Jetpack Sharing: https://jetpack.me/support/sharing/. The module has several display location options that I’m sure you’ll find useful.
If you haven’t already installed Jetpack then I recommend the following; after installing the plugin and linking it to your WordPress.com account, go to Jetpack > Settings and bulk deactivate all modules. Then, activate the Sharing module and any others you might like to use like Tiled Galleries and Carousel. That way you don’t have a bunch of activated modules that you didn’t choose to use.
Let me know how that goes.
hi
thats great i have done and it has worked 🙂
thank you!
the only thing is that it seems to have the sharing buttom but not the like option.
I have the like option on the blog page but is it possible to have the like me on facebook link too to all pages and instagram?
thank you!
Glad to hear you’re making progress.
Instagram
From Jetpack > Settings > Sharing > Configure you can click Add a new service, assuming that you had an icon added to your Media Library for the service in question. The Add new service interface will ask for the icon’s URL.
Facebook Like
Unfortunately, we can’t use the above method to add Facebook Like as it’s more complex than just adding a link. Let me see what I can do with a child theme.
Are you currently using a child theme? If not, I can bundle this up for you in one. If you are, we can add the Ultra social icons to pages by doing the following:
One
Add the following to our child theme functions.php file: http://pastebin.com/R4C3Wtyn
Two
Make a copy of content-page.php found in the Ultra parent folder and insert it into the Ultra child folder. Add the following directly under the start of entry-footer.
<?php do_action( 'ultra_entry_main_bottom' ); ?>
Final result:
http://pastebin.com/KBuKHNfQ
That’ll insert the Ultra share icons on pages too 🙂
Hi
I am not sure if i am using a child theme! sorry i am new to this and find it confusing!
can you please let me know how i will know if i am using child theme and the next step!
thank you 🙂
If you go to Appearance > Themes, does it say Ultra or Ultra Child?
Give the following child theme a try:
http://purothemes.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/ultra-child-social-share-pages.zip
Download the ZIP
Install from Appearance > Themes > Add New: Upload ZIP > Activate
When you activate a child theme in WordPress you will need to:
Re-do Appearance > Menus > Menu Location settings
Re-do Appearance > Customize settings
What you can consider doing is to open Appearance > Customize > Theme Design in one tab and then install the child theme in another, that way you can manually copy those settings across, section by section.
