Social Share for 7.1

Hey there, 

I have Squarespace 7.1 and I am trying to add social shares to the bottom of each blog post and it seems as though I would need to go to a 3rd party site to create the social shares and insert the code. With that said they few 3rd party sites don't seem to be easy to navigate and put on my page. I'm assuming this has been done before on 7.1. I'm wondering if anyone has a good experience with a 3rd party site they've used for the social links and an easy step by step to insert into Squarespace?

You can add share feature with Shareaholic, it is free

You can try, if you can't do it, let me know, we can create a quick guide for you

Thanks for the follow up! Do I need the advanced Squarespace subscription to add the code to the Header for the social shares to be able to work?

Hi!

Sorry to jump in here, tried to use ShareThis to add sharing buttons,  but due to a recommended posts plugin I already have it keeps appearing under the plug in and I would like it to appear above it. (Please see attached pic.)

Is there a code I can add to the blog code injection to swap the layout round?

Cheers,

Can you share link to this page? I think we can use custom code to move share buttons

Omg amazing thank you! So this is across all our blog pages, here's the most recent post from there - https://www.polyesterzine.com/features/the-wicker-man-home-county-horror-and-the-desire-to-go-back-into-the-woods x

Add to Last Line in Code Injection > Footer

<script>
  jQuery(document).ready(function($){
     setTimeout( function() {
          $('.blog-item-injection').insertAfter('.blog-item-wrapper .blog-item-content>.columns-12');
    }, 3000);
})
</script>

That's worked, thank you so much!! x
