Genom att lägga till ett flytande fält för social delning kan du avsevärt förbättra ditt innehålls synlighet och uppmuntra läsarna att sprida det på sociala medier. Ett flytande fält följer med användaren när de scrollar, vilket gör det enkelt att dela innehåll när som helst.
När vi har drivit våra egna webbplatser har vi sett hur flytande sociala delningsfält bidrar till att skapa engagemang och öka trafiken. Genom att strategiskt lägga till den här funktionen på våra webbplatser har vi sett en märkbar ökning av sociala delningar och en bredare räckvidd för vårt innehåll.
Oavsett om du driver en blogg eller ett företag kan det vara ett enkelt sätt att uppmuntra engagemang och utöka din närvaro på nätet genom att lägga till en flytande social delningsbar.
I den här artikeln guidar vi dig genom processen att lägga till ett flytande socialt delningsfält på din WordPress-webbplats. Våra steg-för-steg-instruktioner gör det enkelt även för nybörjare.
Varför lägga till ett flytande socialt delningsfält i WordPress?
Genom att lägga till ett framträdande socialt delningsfält gör du det enkelt för besökare att dela ditt innehåll på sociala medier som Instagram, Facebook och Twitter. Genom att hålla fältet synligt när du skrollar ger du användarna ett bekvämt sätt att dela ditt innehåll när som helst.
Detta kan leda till ökat engagemang, trafik och varumärkeskännedom. Dessutom kan det motivera användarna att lämna kommentarer och gilla-markeringar eller följa dina uppdateringar.
Utöver detta kan ett flytande fält för social delning indirekt förbättra din webbplats ranking genom att öka de sociala signalerna. När användare delar ditt innehåll på sociala medier genererar det bakåtlänkar till din webbplats, vilket kan påverka din sökmotorrankning positivt.
Med detta sagt, låt oss ta en titt på hur man enkelt lägger till ett flytande socialt delningsfält i WordPress. I denna handledning kommer vi att diskutera en kod- och plugin-metod. Du kan använda länkarna nedan för att hoppa till den metod du väljer:
Metod 1: Lägg till en flytande social delningsfält med WPCode
Om du letar efter ett anpassningsbart och enkelt sätt att lägga till ett flytande socialt delningsfält i WordPress, då är den här metoden något för dig.
För detta tillvägagångssätt kommer vi att använda WPCode eftersom det är det bästa WordPress-kodsnippets plugin på marknaden. För mer information om detta verktyg, kolla in vår fullständiga WPCode-recension.
WPCode har ett omfattande bibliotek med färdiga kodavsnitt, inklusive en färdig lösning för att lägga till ett flytande socialt delningsfält. Detta eliminerar behovet av anpassad kodning och gör det enkelt att implementera den här funktionen på din webbplats.
Först måste du installera och aktivera plugin-programmet WPCode. För mer information, se vår nybörjarguide om hur du installerar ett WordPress-plugin.
Obs: WPCode har en gratisversion. För att låsa upp biblioteket med kodsnuttar behöver du dock pluginets pro-plan.
Efter aktivering går du till sidan Code Snippets ” + Add Snippet från WordPress instrumentpanel och använder sökrutan för att hitta snippetet ”Floating Social Media Icons”.
När du har gjort det klickar du bara på knappen ”Använd snippet” under den.
Detta kommer att öppna sidan ”Edit Snippet” på din skärm. Du kommer att märka att kodsnutten för det flytande sociala delningsfältet, med länkar till Facebook, Instagram, Twitter och LinkedIn, redan har lagts till i rutan ”Code Preview”.
Du kan nu använda kodavsnittet som det är eller bläddra nedåt och ändra position, marginal, bredd, bakgrundsfärg, höjd och kantradie för ikonerna.
Till exempel är bakgrundsfärgen för dessa ikoner för sociala medier svart som standard. Du kan dock ersätta den med hexkoden för en färg som bättre matchar ditt varumärke.
Därefter bläddrar du tillbaka till toppen och växlar knappen ”Inactive” till ”Active”.
Klicka sedan på knappen ”Uppdatera” för att spara dina inställningar och lägga till ett flytande fält för sociala delningar.
Du kan nu besöka din webbplats för att se ikonerna för sociala medier i aktion.
Så här såg det ut på vår demowebbplats.
Metod 2: Lägg till ett flytande socialt delningsfält med ett plugin
Om du inte vill använda anpassad kod på din webbplats är den här metoden något för dig. Med det sagt, kom ihåg att du inte får så många anpassningsalternativ med detta tillvägagångssätt.
Först måste du installera och aktivera insticksprogrammet Floating Social Share Icons. Mer information finns i vår handledning om hur du installerar ett WordPress-plugin.
Vid aktivering besöker du sidan Floating Links & Social Icons från WordPress instrumentpanel . Som standard kommer pluginet automatiskt att lägga till flytande ikoner som gör det möjligt för användare att besöka hemsidan, nästa inlägg, föregående inlägg, toppen av sidan och botten av sidan och kopiera den aktuella URL:en.
Men om du inte behöver någon av dessa funktioner kan du stänga av dessa alternativ. När du har gjort det kommer dina ändringar att synkroniseras automatiskt.
Därefter går du till sidan Floating Links & Social Icons ” Sociala ikoner från admin-sidofältet .
För att anpassa ditt flytande sociala delningsfält är det bara att trycka på knappen bredvid de önskade sociala medieplattformarna. Då kommer motsvarande ikoner att visas i fältet, så att besökarna enkelt kan dela ditt innehåll.
Dina inställningar sparas automatiskt när du har gjort ändringarna.
Sedan kan du besöka din WordPress-webbplats för att se det flytande sociala delningsfältet i aktion.
Bonus: Lägg till en flytande social bar i WordPress
Om du vill kan du också lägga till en flytande social bar med följ-knappar i WordPress.
På så sätt kan besökare enkelt ansluta till dina profiler på sociala medier och hålla sig uppdaterade om dina senaste nyheter och evenemang. Genom att göra det enkelt för användarna att följa dig på sociala medier kan du utöka din räckvidd och skapa en hängiven gemenskap.
För att göra detta behöver du OptinMonster, som är det bästa blygenereringsverktyget på marknaden. Dessutom kommer den med en förgjord mall för att skapa en flytande social bar.
Besök först OptinMonster-webbplatsen och registrera dig för ett konto. Kom ihåg att du måste köpa Basic-planen eftersom den innehåller kampanjtypen Floating Bar.
Gå sedan till din WordPress-instrumentpanel för att installera och aktivera OptinMonsters anslutningsplugin. För mer information, se vår handledning om hur du installerar ett WordPress-plugin.
När du aktiverar kommer du att se välkomstskärmen och installationsguiden. Gå vidare och klicka på knappen ”Anslut ditt befintliga konto”.
Du kan sedan följa anvisningarna på skärmen för att ansluta ditt OptinMonster-konto till WordPress.
När det är gjort, gå över till OptinMonster ” Mallar sida från WordPress instrumentpanelen och välj ” Floating Bar” som kampanjtyp.
Klicka sedan på knappen ”Använd mall” för mallen ”Följ på sociala medier”. Då öppnas en dialogruta där du måste ange ett namn för den kampanj du ska skapa.
OptinMonsters dra-och-släpp-byggare kommer nu att starta på din skärm.
Det är här du kan designa din flytande bar.
Pluginet erbjuder olika block som du helt enkelt kan dra och släppa på mallen. Du kan till exempel lägga till en bild, text, knapp och mer till ditt sociala mediefält.
Mer information finns i vår handledning om hur du lägger till en varningsfält i WordPress.
Därefter klickar du på knapparna för sociala medier i det flytande fältet. Detta kommer att öppna några nya inställningar i den vänstra kolumnen.
Här kan du lägga till webbadressen för dina Facebook-, Instagram- och Twitter-sidor.
När du är klar växlar du till fliken ”Publicera” från toppen och ändrar kampanjstatusen till ”Publicera”. Sedan måste du klicka på knappen ”Spara” och stänga den visuella byggaren.
Du kan nu besöka din WordPress-webbplats för att se den flytande sociala baren i aktion.
Vi hoppas att den här artikeln hjälpte dig att lära dig hur du lägger till ett flytande socialt delningsfält i WordPress Du kanske också vill se vår nybörjarguide om hur du lägger till sociala delningsknappar i WordPress och våra toppval för de bästa sociala mediepluginsen för att få din webbplats att växa.

Lots of people like me having problems with your floating bar not working. Do you check your support comments? I guess only option is to assume that since you don’t address the reasons why your floating bar does not work, it must be broken and I must look for another solution. (Sad face)
WPBeginner Support
Mike, we tested it WP 3.8 and it works fine. As a free plugin it comes with limited support options. Unfortunately we can not address theme related issues.

Hi, thanks for sharing this plugin. Whenever I click on ’Like’ on the floating social bar, it pops up a window for me to share to my friends. But the window is cut off, making only the left side visible. It only happens to the Facebook Like button and not to G+. Do you know how to fix this?
Jenn Marie
Brian, try adding this to your style sheet or your theme’s custom CSS box:
/* to fix cropping of fb post-like popup*/
.fb-like iframe {
max-width: inherit !important;
}
I was having the same problem and this worked immediately!
Rahul Chowdary
I absolutely loved this plugin. I made few changes myself to make it better for my blog.
I am also using Sticky Header by ThematoSoup. So when the sticky header is scrolled down the floating social bar overlapping perfectly.
Problem is the background of the bar and fsb-sprite image.
So I edited the css of this plugin to remove background color of the bar and removed background of fsb-sprite image.
You can see that working on any post of my blog. My blog: Techpingo[dot]com.
My question: In the free version an image is used as buttons and the counters are placed properly. But how can I use customized version with actual buttons like yours in ”wpbeginner.com” blog and sister blog ”list25.com” .
Please tell me how to do it but don’t say me no.
Mike Campbell
Thanks for the great plugin, using it on a couple of my websites.
Nitin
Hi,
Just wanted to know if the bar could be disabled for mobile devices as social sharing is native on iOS etc. If yes, then how.
Apologies, if you have already addressed the question in conversations before, I gave cursory glance could not find anyone on this.
Thanks
Muhammad Shoaib
Hey i have installed it on my website and it is working great. I want to change the background color of the sharing bar so that it will match with my blog’s bg color. I have tried in CSS file but did not succeeded. can anyone help me how to do it.? Thanks
Jenn Marie
Muhammad, you might try making your own fsb-sprite.png file with a transparent background. This file is located in the theme’s images folder and currently the button images are on a white background. You’ll need an image editing program that supports a transparent canvas, like Adobe Fireworks.
Bob Digital
Hi, we are getting a redirect loop on the pinterest button, all others seem to work ok. Any ideas what we might be doing wrong?
WPBeginner Support
Its working fine on our test site. Please try disabling other social media plugins and see if this works. If it does work then please notify us about the plugin that was conflicting.

Hi, thanks. Does the pinterest button on our site work for you? – http://digitalvillas.com/portfolio/dvr43-modern-fantasy-villa/
The only other social plugin on that theme is the ’Facebook Social Plugin Widgets’ so we have added the plugin to a new demo site we are making to test it out, this site uses a different theme and has no other social media plugins at all, it is on the same hosting though. We get the same response from the pinterest button.
On this page you dont have pinterest so we cant test it, is there another site you have it on we can test please?
Many Thanks.
WPBeginner Support
We are using a customized version of floating social bar on our sister website, http://www.list25.com and Pinterest button is working fine there.

Hi, I have a question about the facebook like. When you open this up, you get a share on facebook box, as expected. But if you have multiple facebook pages, how can you direct the share to a specific page, ie personal vs business page. This is a recurrent theme with facebook shares and likes. Any thoughts?
Thanks
Paul
aquib
Hi the facebook share button will only partially display can you help ?
Paul
I have a question. Let’s say you enable this new floating social bar, what happens to all those prior posts you have out in the world or in your blog, enabled with jetpack social sharing. Do those social buttons disappear from those posts?
WPBeginner Support
Floating social bar will show your likes and tweet counts on those posts. The plugin will not affect how people shared your posts before installing this plugin.

Hi,
Thank you wpbeginner for creating such an awesome plugin. I installed it and realized it wasn’t floating, deactivated almost all plugins and found the culprits while activating them one by one. Two plugins that conflict with this one are: Facebook TrafficPop™ for WordPress, and Wordpress Like Locker; same author from codecanyon.net. Do you guys have any idea how to fix it.
FxB
Nice plugin
One observation : you should remove the white background on the sprite.png so we could tweak the background without having a disgracing white border around the elements.
For the rest nothing to say, great work

Can i add the bar at the bottom of a page or post instead of the top where it is now?

Thank you for this beautiful plugin. I am having one issue: If I activate the plugin, when clicking at a post, I get an access denied message from my htaccess (I protected /wp-admin directory). If I do not enter any credentials and click cancel, the page and the plugin loads and everything looks normal. Does your plugin require access to /wp-admin folder?
Editorial Staff
It does call the ajax to update the count which is probably why you are getting that error.

Hi,
The instructions on this page say:
” Next, add your twitter ID in the field in the following format @wpbeginner.”
The instructions on the Settings page for the plugin say:
”Your twitter username when visitors retweet your posts (no @ symbol).”
Thanks in advance for clarifying this.
– Greg
Editorial Staff
Sorry, that is our mistake. Fixed the instruction. Add twitter handle without the @ symbol.

Marcy Diaz
Thank you for this plugin. I always appreciated that your social bar didn’t cover the post text while I was reading on an iPad, while many other plugins do. I also appreciate all your many tutorials; when I need to know how to do something with WordPress, your site is usually the first site I search, even before a general Google search.
Editorial Staff
Thank you Marcy for your continuous support. We truly appreciate it.

Are there any plans to create an option to disable the number of shares display? For now I’m not activating it because of the big fat zeros. Will activate when there’s an option or I have decent numbers.
Editorial Staff
Yes, in our next update which should hopefully go live later today, it will automatically hide the count if it is 0. If the count is higher then 0, then it will display.
Administratör
Ray Mitchell
This plugin is exactly what I need for my newly launched blog. Unfortunately, the row of 0 shares is depressing. Is there any thought to making the counters an option?
Katie
Is there a way to customize it so it looks just like the way you have it on here? I installed it, but the font is different, it’s more spaced out between the buttons, and there isn’t the line dividers
Editorial Staff
The customization on this site are done to match our design. We use a font called Oswald which has to be loaded first in the design before it can be used by the bar. It doesn’t make sense to load an external font that doesn’t match site design for thousands of users who use this plugin.
In short, if you would like to do that, then you can override the plugin CSS styles.
Administratör
Seda
Thanks guys. This is an amazing plugin. Can you let us know how to add the line dividers like the one on your page here and change the font in css? I’m a newbie and don’t know css but i’m willing to give it a shot. What line in css should be changed to add the line dividers and change the fonts?
Thanks in advance and thanks for the best social media plugin out there.

I am sure you are biased…. but would you say this is faster than the Jetpack share bar?
Editorial Staff
I would admit the bias if I was biased.
This plugin is faster than all other social media plugins including the one in Jetpack. This is faster than even if you paste the social buttons directly in your template. Mainly because all other methods simply load social media scripts on initial page load. We don’t load the heavy social scripts until the user brings their mouse over the share buttons. This allows your initial page load to be the same as you would have without loading any social media scripts.

I activate this plugin and selected posts, but nothing showing at all. I am not sure if it is due to conflict with other plugins.
Is there a way to place it manually in single.php?
Thanks.
Editorial Staff
Ten, if nothing shows up then it means that your site is not using the_content() tag in the template. You can manually add the plugin like this:
<?php floating_social_bar($args = array('twitter' => true, 'facebook' => true, 'google' => true)); ?>1-click Use in WordPress
pinterest and linkedin are added the same way as others.

Tom Chubb
Hi,
This sounds like a great plugin and (almost) perfect for what I need.
Only issue is that I use an events plugin where all events use the same page, so if you click share it will only share the single page, not the single event.
I need a plugin where I can manually pass it the URL (which I can get from a placeholder in the events plugin) otherwise every event has the same amount of likes/shares, etc.
Thanks in advance,
Tom
Editorial Staff
Tom,
This plugin comes with a manual insertion code that you can use. Refer to the our FAQ section. We added a new variable that is not yet documented but will be in our release later today that allows you to make the bar static. Parameter is static=true.
You can use the function to insert in your events loop and display it after each event. The plugin doesn’t get the main page URL, it gets the url of the post/page from the loop it is in.
Caitlin
This is really great! I was using publicize but the shares were always at the bottom of the pages and a spacing issue I couldn’t resolve meant that it was essentially hidden.
I have two questions that are related to layout:
1. It doesn’t appear on my home page (which is the blog post source and sequentially displays all blogs post). It does appear if I click on each individual blog. I understand why it’s happening, but I’m wondering if there is a way to make it appear on the home page?
2. My WP layout has a grey background for pages and posts. The floating bar appears in white so it looks a bit out of place. Is there a way to modify the colour of the floating bar?
Awesome plugin.Thanks!
Editorial Staff
Hi Caitlin,
1. It doesn’t appear on the homepage because you can’t have 10 floating bars if you have 10 posts. Besides most front pages only show the excerpts, and people don’t/shouldn’t share things by simply reading the excerpts.
2. At this point, the option to change color doesn’t exist. I’m not sure when it will make it in or if it will make it in. But I will keep it in mind for future features.

Hi Syed,
Thanks for let us know about this and for contacting us. We’ll give it a try some time this weekend and hopefully can write up something for this plugin. Have been looking for this kind of plugin since most of the floating social share bar plugins out there float on the left or right side of the post, not on the top.
Danny Brown
Just tried it on one of my sites, looks nice, but doesn’t float. Saw this feedback on WP.org Support, about it only working in FF:
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/scrolling-off?replies=5
Thoughts? Also, does it support mobile browsing/responsive site design?
Thanks!
Editorial Staff
Danny,
I have tried the floating on: Mac (Safari and Chrome). Windows (Firefox, Chrome, and Internet Explorer). They are all seem to be working fine. If for some reason the issue persist on your site, then it has to be a conflict with another jQuery script that either your theme or another plugin uses.
As for responsive, the plugin adjust fine on mobile screen. The only issue was the floating can be buggy. This is why we stopped the floating. In the later version, we are thinking of making it a toggle box called ”Share” which when the user clicks on will show the share buttons only for responsive sites on smaller screen resolutions.
Administratör
Zimbrul
To be honest (I don’t want to say big words) but I was really looking for something like that! I have a fixation to find the best social sharing plugin and lightweight at the same time. Looks like this is doing the job. I’ve installed on three of my sites and the rest will follow. This will allow me to get rid of the bloated plugins similar to this one and use yours.
And to be honest a plugin by Syed Balkhi and Thomas Griffin cannot be anything but an awesome plugin.
Nouman Younas
Really nice.. i am going to install it on my one blog and after testing it.. i will install it on all blogs…
Tee Riddle
Hello! This looks like a great plugin and something that will definitely fill a need I (many others, too) have for social sharing.
I haven’t used the plugin yet and have a question similar to Katie’s above. Is there a way to exclude certain pages? Maybe a filter we could add using ”if ( function_exist() )” to exclude certain page ids?
I have certain pages I would like to add the share bar, then other pages that are not password protected (like an email sign up thank you page) where I want to exclude from having the share bar.
Thanks!
Editorial Staff
Correction: There is a meta box to hide social buttons on individual posts and pages. You just have to make sure that you check the post type from Floating Social Bar settings, and then you can turn it off for individual pages.
Administratör
Tee Riddle
Awesome! Thank you very much for the reply and the hard work on the plugin.
raikit
Hello,
An option to place the bar below or above the post?
Select an option under which post types, categories, Social Bar appears.
An option to disable the floating social bar in edit mode of page / post.
All of that would be nice!
Best regards
raikit
Editorial Staff
We don’t want to bloat the plugin with too many options.
You do have an option to select which post type you want to add this to. Lastly, we are contemplating adding the option to stop the floating and then choose the position either bottom or top.
Administratör
Jean-Paul Horn
I would very much appreciate an option to stop the floating and just make it ’stick’ wherever I place it via a function call. It would be awesome if you could incorporate this. I’ve marked the plugin as favorite so I can keep up with its progress.
Editorial Staff
Jean, we already have a function for developers who want to call it manually rather than using the default plugin options. The option for stop floating is being worked on
Gretchen Louise
I second the suggestion to give a checkbox option for display below the post rather than above the post if it’s not floating. Thanks for the fabulous plugin, guys!
Gretchen Louise
Oh look, they’ve already added this feature: http://wordpress.org/plugins/floating-social-bar/changelog/ Amazing plugin.

Emyr Thomas
Great to see a social media plugin that actually tackles the issue of page load speed. The only gripe I have so far is that it loads the whole of twitter bootstrap just for a single admin options page! I know this is on the back end and doesn’t affect front end performance, but still seems a bit excessive. Why not just use default WordPress classes to style the options page – do you really need bootstrap?
Editorial Staff
Bootstrap made things easy. It has no effect on the front-end and its negligible even on the backend. It will also help us in the future as this plugin evolve.
Administratör
Emyr Thomas
I know it has no effect on the front end (as I already stated), but come on, this is overkill for one options page for a single plugin. I could just about understand if this were a plugin which required a myriad of complex option screens, but it’s not. I think stuff like this is bad practice. What if many plugins started doing this? It would certainly have an effect then. You don’t need much CSS to style admin pages, WordPress has a lot of styles baked in for this kind of thing. If people used the built-in styles the WP admin would look much more consistent for end users. For a good discussion on this, see the ”What Would Core Do” presentation by Jake Goldman of 10up: http://www.slideshare.net/jakemgold/what-would-core-do
I’m not trying to be awkward here. I really like the plugin. It solves a very real problem. The options screen is nicely done – not at all garish – and sticks pretty close to the look of WordPress core, but I really think you could have done it without using Bootstrap.
Editorial Staff
Thanks for sharing your feedback. Will discuss internally to see what we want to do about it.
Andre Costa
Thank you for sharing your plugin.
I installed it on my site (www.andre-costa.com) but it is not showing anywhere.
I am going to check your WP plugin page and check whether other people are having the same issue (I may be doing something really silly and that is why it is not working!).
Thanks again.
Editorial Staff
Make sure you check that you want to display it on posts in the settings page.
Administratör
Andre Costa

Really nice.
Katie Davis
Because I have password protected pages for paid products on my site, I had to remove my social sharing buttons until I found something that would allow me to exclude those pages – obviously I don’t want to have people sharing protected pages!
So my question is, if I were to add this plugin to my pages, is there a way to *definitely* exclude password protected pages?
Editorial Staff
If you select page post type, then it will output on all published pages. Now if your page is password protected, then it should not matter. User won’t get access to the page, they will hit your password wall. Most paid membership sites show a sign up page, so for all it will help increase your signups if your pages are shared.
Administratör
Katie Davis
Thanks for the reply! Just so I’m clear… if I just have a self-hosted WP site, and it’s NOT a membership site and I have the products that I sell on the password protected pages, even if people share the protected pages, those without the passwords wouldn’t be able to access the pages UNLESS they had the passwords? Thanks again…I love your blog, and recommend it to clients often!
Editorial Staff
Yes that’s correct. Because the user would still have to enter the password. You can try it in the incognito window. Open the URL and see what it shows.
Editorial Staff
We added a feature that will allow you to turn it off on specific pages if you want. All you have to do is edit the metabox.
