I've forgotten how to do it. I just had a look at one of my articles and there's no obvious way to share it. Oh look! There's a Facebook and Pinterest button at the top! Maybe I should press those? Let's try, no they lead to Pinterest and Facebook sites for the website. Maybe the buttons are down further. Scroll down, no, doesn't seem to be any share buttons. I could have sworn there were some.
Nope. I've never used a share button.
Do it the old fashioned way...by using the share at top of page...like a less than sign or tap the 3 dots then hit share...
Either copy or select an area to share it to like Twitter
Try under author view and when your article opens up, left click on the media site. I just tried this for Pinterest and it opened to my personal account.
My point though is there should be obvious share buttons. I know there are Pinterest buttons on photos, but other websites explicitly use the text "share this article" or similar. The share buttons at the top of an article and also in the menu both go to the socials of the site. I can't see any others, so they must be hidden somewhere. I have to copy and paste the URL if I want to share. Maybe it's the policy of the sites not to allow sharing?

Google+ Share Button - Will we have one soon?Why isn't there a Google+ share buttons on our hubs as standard? Do HubPages have plans to add this?

Why do we have no more share buttons on our hubs?First, the Google + button is no longer available. Now the rest (Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest) are gone. All except for the Hub Pages button to share our hubs. Why did it happen?

What happened to the G+ share buttons? I don't see them on any hubs I've recently read. Have they been done away with now?
