Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Unstoppable Share Buttons adds share buttons to your posts, pages and products without loading a single third-party script. Every icon is bundled locally, every share is a plain link, and nothing about your visitors is sent anywhere.

The whole plugin is free. There is no paid tier, no trial, no locked feature and no license key to enter.

Four placements

  • Inline — above the post, below it, on both sides, or dropped in after a paragraph you choose.
  • Floating sidebar — sticks to the left or right edge and follows the reader down the page. Hides itself on narrow screens.
  • Sticky mobile bar — pinned to the bottom of the screen on phones, where a thumb can reach it.
  • Universal button — one button that opens a dialog containing everything.

48 places to share

ru, Xing, Weibo, QQ, WeChat, Snapchat, Nextdoor, MeWe, Minds, Diaspora, LiveJournal, Blogger, Flipboard, Hacker News and Digg.

Messaging: WhatsApp, Telegram, Messenger, Viber, LINE, Threema, text message and email.

Read later: Instapaper, Evernote, Trello, Buffer and a browser bookmark prompt.

Ask an AI: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Grok and Google. These open an assistant with a prompt about your page already written. You control the wording.

On the device: copy link, the native share sheet, a QR code and print.

Looks like your site, not like a plugin

Six shapes, six fills, four colour palettes, five hover effects, adjustable size, spacing and corner radius, plus light and dark schemes. A live preview in the settings updates as you change things.

Measurement without surveillance

Share clicks can be recorded in a table on your own server: one row per post, network, placement and day. No IP address, no browser fingerprint, no user ID, and nothing leaves your site. This is switched off by default and only ever counts a click after a visitor makes one.

If you already run Google Analytics 4, Meta Pixel or Google Tag Manager, the plugin can fire a share event through the script you have already loaded. It never loads a tracker for you.

Works where you work

  • A block for the post editor, rendered server-side so it always reflects your current settings.
  • An Elementor widget with its own content and style controls.
  • WooCommerce product sharing, with five positions to choose from and the product image used for Pinterest.
  • Five shortcodes and two template tags for everything else.

Built to stay out of the way

  • No jQuery. The front-end script is vanilla JavaScript and loads only on pages that actually show a bar.
  • No CDN, no remote fonts, no external stylesheet.
  • Icons are inline SVG, so there is no icon font to download.
  • Full keyboard access, labelled buttons, visible focus rings and reduced-motion support.

External Services

This plugin does not connect to any external service. It makes no HTTP requests from your server, loads no remote scripts or stylesheets, and sends no analytics, telemetry, crash reports or site information anywhere.

What it does do is generate ordinary links to the public share pages of the networks you enable. Nothing happens until one of your visitors clicks one, at which point their browser goes to that network in the normal way, exactly as if they had clicked a link you typed by hand. The address of the page being shared, and its title, are part of that link, because that is what sharing means.

The networks reachable this way, and the address used for each, are listed in the plugin’s settings under Networks. Each network’s own terms and privacy policy govern what happens after a visitor arrives there. com/legal/privacy-policy).

The optional Google Analytics 4, Meta Pixel and Google Tag Manager settings send a share event through a script that is already running on your site. This plugin does not install, load or configure any of those services. If you have not added them yourself, those settings do nothing.

Privacy

Click recording is off by default. When you switch it on, the plugin stores a daily count per post, network and placement in a table in your own database. It records no IP address, no user agent, no user ID and no referrer, and the data is never transmitted anywhere.

A short-lived rate limit on the recording endpoint uses a hashed IP address to stop one visitor flooding the table. The hash lives in a transient for sixty seconds and the address itself is never written to disk.

You can clear all recorded history at any time from Unstoppable Share → Tools, and choose whether uninstalling the plugin removes its data.
