• I love this plugin!!! It is not showing the buttons properly on mobile, though.
    They look like little dots.

    Is there a setting I’m missing?

    By default, the plugin is assuming that your buttons include both the text and the icon. On mobile, the text is hidden using a screen reader text CSS technique, so that only the icons will show. Since you are using the buttons with text, but no icons, that approach won’t work for you.

    One thing you can do is to add this CSS to your theme, or the additional CSS panel in the Customizer:

    
    span.sss-name {
        position: relative !important;
    }
    

    The button labels will not be visually hidden on smaller devices with this CSS. However, because the buttons will be larger than they would be with just the icons, you may need to restyle how the buttons display on smaller devices, as the plugin styling is set to use display: table; for the buttons container, and the buttons are display: table-cell;, which will likely cause the buttons to overflow the parent container and may cause other issues.

    With this in mind, it might be easier to consider disabling the plugin styles altogether. You can copy them from the plugin to your theme (or additional CSS panel) and modify the display properties as well as removing the screen reader text CSS altogether, so that you don’t have to override it as suggested above.

    Thank you, Robin. I’ll see what speed affects using the icons has.
    And, I’ll check with my designer, as we used a specific icon set for follow buttons, to help with speed too.

    If you prefer not to use the icons included in the plugin, you can use your own and add them with your own CSS. If you are using SVG icons elsewhere in your theme, you can use those as well, with some code work. I wrote a blog post about how I do this in my own theme, if that helps you get started on that route.

    Oh, thank you!!!! That will help!!

    Thanks for the reply. I fixed it on the mobile by using the extra CSS.

    One tip: Write the css code in the plugin settings page so that people do not have to come to the support forum. I almost uninstalled the plugin.
