MashShare record
MashShare add-ons: what each one did
Quick answer
MashShare sold a free core plugin plus paid add-ons for extra networks, mobile layouts, sticky bars, like prompts, analytics, short links, pageviews, Open Graph tags, click to tweet and text selection sharing, bundled into personal, business and larger licences. None are sold or supported here. Each entry below links to an independent guide to the same feature today.
The add-on catalogue, as it was
The old /downloads/ catalogue and pricing page were among the most linked addresses on the domain, because reviews and roundups linked to them when describing the plugin. This page records what those add-ons did, based on their product addresses and the documentation that referred to them. It is not a store. There is nothing to buy, download or activate here.
| Add-on | What it did | Current guide |
|---|---|---|
| Social Networks | Added networks beyond the core few | Choosing networks |
| Responsive | Mobile layouts and separate mobile positions | Mobile share buttons |
| Sticky Sharebar and Floating Sidebar | Buttons that stay in view while scrolling | Sticky share bars |
| LikeAfterShare and Facebook Like Bar | Asked for a like or follow around a share | Share prompts |
| VideoPost Popup | Share request at the end of a video | Share prompts |
| Google Analytics Integration | Sent share clicks to analytics | Share analytics |
| PageViews | Showed view counts beside shares | Share analytics |
| ShortURLs Integration | Short links for shared addresses | Bitly short links |
| Open Graph | Wrote preview tags for shared posts | Open Graph tags |
| Click to Tweet | Quote boxes that open the X composer | Click to tweet |
| Select and Share | Share a highlighted sentence | Highlight to share |
| Performance Widget | Reported share button load cost | Share button speed |
Licences
Add-ons were sold individually and as bundles under personal, business and larger multi-site licences, renewed yearly, with a development licence for agencies. Reviews from the time mention yearly prices in euros and the number of premium add-ons in a bundle rising from nine to about a dozen. Licence keys activated updates and support; with the plugin closed, there is no licence server to activate against, and this site cannot issue, renew or refund licences.
If you still run these add-ons
- They receive no updates. Treat them as unmaintained code on a live site.
- Features that called network APIs, such as counts and short links, fail as those APIs change.
- Plan a replacement using choosing a replacement share plugin and remove them with the migration checklist.
