What It Does

Highlight and Share is a lightweight and unobtrusive social network WordPress plugin designed to help readers share meaningful parts of your content. Instead of placing large social sharing buttons throughout your website, Highlight and Share appears only when users interact with your content. This keeps pages clean while still encouraging natural social sharing.

Visitors can highlight text, share images, copy quotes, or link directly to headlines. Sharing options appear exactly when they are needed, allowing readers to share interesting passages, statistics, or insights without interrupting the reading experience.

Highlight and Share works great for content sharing, social highlights, image sharing, headline sharing, and for those wanting a comprehensive Click to Share block/shortcode with inline highlighting supported.

The plugin is built with flexibility and performance in mind. Most features are optional and can be enabled or disabled depending on your needs. This makes Highlight and Share a great solution for blogs, news sites, documentation sites, and long-form content where readers may want to reference specific sections or quickly copy and share passages.

FAQ

Highlight and Share works as a text highlighter plugin for WordPress. When a visitor selects text on your site, a small sharing interface appears allowing them to share the selected text to social networks, copy it, or send it via email.

This makes it easy for readers to highlight important quotes, statistics, or passages and share them instantly.

Additional sharing features such as image sharing, headline sharing, and a Click to Share block/shortcode allow for more sharing options.
