About ShareBang, Ultimate Social Share Buttons for WP
ShareBang is a WordPress plugin for adding social share buttons to your site, so readers can send a post or page to their social accounts. It was originally sold on CodeCanyon and is filed in the store under WordPress plugins.
The listing gives no detail on which networks it supports, where the buttons can be placed or whether it shows share counts. Check the documentation in the package and the plugin's settings page for those answers before you commit to it.
The file on record is version 1.4, released in February 2019. Social networks change their sharing links over time, so test every button on a staging site and make sure each one still opens a working share window.
Key features
- Social share buttons
- Adds buttons that let visitors share your content on social networks.
- WordPress plugin
- Installs like any plugin and is configured from the dashboard.
- Content sharing
- Intended for posts and pages, so articles are easy to pass on.
- Placement options
- The listing doesn't state where buttons can appear. Check the settings in your copy.
- Standalone plugin
- Not described as an add-on, so it should not need a parent plugin.
Is it right for you?
A good fit for
- Blogs and content sites that want share buttons on articles
- Site owners who prefer a dedicated plugin over a social media suite
Look elsewhere if
- Sites that need share counts or analytics, since the listing doesn't mention them

Common problems and fixes
“The link you followed has expired.” when uploading
- Why it happens
- The zip is larger than your server's PHP upload limit (upload_max_filesize / post_max_size).
- How to fix it
- Raise the upload limit in your hosting control panel, or unzip the file and upload the folder to wp-content/plugins with your host's file manager or SFTP.
“The package could not be installed. No valid plugins were found.”
- Why it happens
- The uploaded zip is a bundle (or a theme), not the plugin itself.
- How to fix it
- Unzip the download once and upload the inner zip named after the plugin.
“Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.”
- Why it happens
- Usually a PHP version older than the plugin needs, or a second copy of the same plugin (for example the free version) still active.
- How to fix it
- Check your PHP version under Tools → Site Health → Info, deactivate any other copy of the plugin, and enable WP_DEBUG_LOG to see the exact error.
Licence or “updates unavailable” notices
- Why it happens
- The developer's licence key isn't included. Features that call the developer's servers (template libraries, cloud APIs, automatic updates) need it.
- How to fix it
- Everything that runs locally works without it. For a newer file, use Request an update from your account.
