How to install share button instead of the like button

Asked By diana arvana 20 points N/A Posted on - 09/24/2011

I'm running a new a blog and I wanted to install the share option that the Facebook has. The problem is, Facebook updated this feature and instead of the share icon they are now promoting to use like icon.

I'm not a fan of this newer feature so I'm wondering if I can still use share button instead of the like button. If yes, how am I going to install it?

How to install share button instead of the like button

On your page, go to your HTML settings, then enable "Expand Widget Templates".

Edit your HTML settings by adding the following codes Attached:

Find this code first (Ctrl+F) <data:post.body/> then paste the Facebook share codes where you want to put your share button. Putting the codes before <data:post.body/> makes your button appear at the top of  your article while putting the codes after <data:post.body/>  makes your button appear after the article.

If you're using WordPress follow the instructions here Click on the link
