## Description

SGS Social Sharing Buttons is the essential plugin for any WordPress site looking
to enhance its social media presence and engagement. This lightweight plugin integrates
seamlessly into your website, adding a set of fixed, aesthetically pleasing social
media sharing buttons. These buttons enable your visitors to effortlessly share 
your content across multiple social media platforms, thereby increasing your reach
and driving more traffic to your site.

### Key Features

 * **Admin Settings Page**: Customize which post types, networks, position, size,
   and animations are used — all from a clean settings screen under Settings  SGS
   Sharing Buttons.
 * **Shortcode Support**: Place sharing buttons anywhere in your content with `[
   sgs_ssb]`.
 * **Print Button**: Includes a print icon so visitors can easily print your content.
 * **9 Social Platforms**: WhatsApp, Facebook, X (Twitter), LinkedIn, Telegram, 
   Pinterest, Reddit, Email, and Print.
 * **Dark Mode Support**: Automatically adapts to the visitor’s `prefers-color-scheme:
   dark` setting.
 * **RTL Language Support**: Full right-to-left compatibility out of the box.
 * **Accessible**: All buttons include proper `aria-label` attributes, focus indicators,
   screen-reader-friendly SVGs, and respects `prefers-reduced-motion`.
 * **Zero Frontend JavaScript**: The plugin ships no JavaScript — everything is 
   server-rendered HTML and CSS.
 * **No Tracking**: The plugin does not track user data, ensuring privacy and compliance
   with data protection regulations.
 * **Developer Friendly**: Four filter hooks allow full customization of output,
   networks, link attributes, and display conditions.
 * **AMP Compatible**: Fully compatible with Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP).
 * **Responsive Design**: Adapts perfectly to all screen sizes — fixed sidebar on
   desktop, bottom bar on mobile.
 * **Lightweight and Fast**: Minimal impact on page load times thanks to efficient
   coding and the absence of JavaScript.

### Developer Filters

 * `sgs_ssb_networks` — Add, remove, or reorder social networks (array).
