Using the WordPress plugin

Download simple-social-sharing.php, upload it into your plugins folder and activate it. To call the buttons anywhere in your theme, use the function <?php simple_social_sharing('mattberridge'); ?> including your Twitter username.

If you wish to show/hide any of the buttons individually, add a further attribute e.g. <?php simple_social_sharing('mattberridge', '0,1,0'); ?>

These are toggles for each button in the order Facebook, Twitter, Google+. 1 means show, 0 means hide.

I have also created a shortcode (to be used in the content body) which follows the same form e.g. [simple-social-sharing twitter="mattberridge" display="0,1,0"]
