AddThis is Shutting Down May 31, 2023 - Replace with ShareThis.com

 

Many sites have used AddThis.com to create "sharing" buttons on their websites.  This includes sharing to Facebook, Twitter and other social networks.  The AddThis service is shutting down on May 31, 2023. Sharing Buttons that use the AddThis service will stop working completely on May 31, 2023 and may stop working prior to that date.

 

The ShareThis.com service can easily be used to generate new sharing buttons on your website.

 

Go to https://sharethis.com/ for an overview of the ShareThis service.

To create a FREE account go to:

Once you have an account, we recommend you use their Sticky Share Buttons for your website.

Use their easy online configuration to create the buttons you want.

Once you are done share this will give you code to paste into your website.

Copy/save that code.
