When you create your ShareThis button or configure your ShareThis WordPress plugin, you will be given the option to customize it to fit the needs and style of your site. Here are the currently customizable options:
- The button icon — you have a choice between a static ShareThis icon and a rotating gif with the ShareThis icon and several social web site icons - which is handy for indicating that you haven’t really gotten rid of all those social web buttons cluttering your site.
- Social Web sites — you can choose which social web services will be shown on your ShareThis widget.
- Colors — you can set the colors for all parts of the sharing interface.
If you are using the classic WordPress plugin, you’ll need to modify the ShareThis WordPress plugin by hand in the plugins section of your WordPress admin site, if you need to customize it. Of course, we recommend upgrading to the new ShareThis WordPress plugin.
