Reviews
what people actually sayAddToAny Share Buttons is a well-liked, lightweight sharing plugin praised for its simplicity and ease of setup, though it lacks granular control over where buttons appear and at least one user reports it stopped working entirely across multiple sites without resolution.
What people like
- +Easy to set up and use×4
- +Lightweight and simple×2
- +Works across platforms (e.g. Joomla to WordPress transition noted positively)
Common complaints
- −No granular control over which content types (pages, posts, forums, etc.) display the sharing buttons — it's all or nothing
- −Plugin stopped working entirely across multiple sites simultaneously, with no fix after several updates
