Option to show or hide social share links
At the bottom of news articles, there are social media icons that allow users or visitors to quickly share the article on various platforms.
This feature makes it easier for users or visitors to share links directly to their social accounts by opening the selected platform and allowing for post customisation.
For many, this can be faster than manually copying the link and navigating to the sharing option within the platform.
That said, we've received feedback from some users who would prefer to have this sharing option hidden.
It would be useful if there were an option in the Article settings within the CMS to allow users to easily toggle the visibility of the social sharing options (either for specific platforms or for all).
This would give users the flexibility to keep the feature if they find it valuable or hide it if they prefer not to have it displayed.
The sharing options can be important for purposes like marketing, community engagement, or increasing content visibility. Having the ability to manage this would benefit a wide range of users.
