There's a module for that. Module name/project name: Better Social Sharing Buttons Brief history How old: created in Aug 2018 by Joery Lemmens (flyke), though recent releases are by Shelane French (shelane) Versions available: 5.0.0, which works with Drupal 10.1, 11, and 12 Maintainership Actively maintained, latest release in July, adding Drupal 12 support Security coverage Number of open issues: 17, 5 of which are bugs against older branches Usage stats: 8,347 sites Module features and usage Supports 16 services, including Facebook, X, LinkedIn, Bluesky, Reddit, Pinterest, WhatsApp, Telegram, and email, plus handy extras like print and copy link Each button is just a plain link to that service's share URL, opening in a new tab. No trackers, no external API calls, no ad servers That's a nice win for performance, and for privacy and GDPR, since nothing third-party loads until a visitor actually clicks You can place it as a block, as a pseudo field on nodes or paragraphs, or call it from Twig with Twig Tweak The global settings form lets you enable services and drag them into order, and each block instance can override that list, the icon set, and the sizing The module comes with two icon sets: colored squares, which become round if you set the radius to 100%, or flat icons you can color with a CSS fill. The colored set also exposes CSS custom properties, so you can re-brand it from your theme The icons are minified SVGs in a single sprite, so they load once no matter how many buttons are on the page There's also a per-node submodule: enable it per content type, and editors with the right permission get a checkbox to turn sharing on or off for individual nodes Under the hood it's nearly all Twig, one template partial per service, with just a little JavaScript for copy link, print, and Bluesky. Copy link even uses an aria-live region to announce the confirmation to screen readers The block uses the current page's URL and title, so it works on user and term pages too, while the field version shares the node's own URL and title Developers can tweak what gets shared with an alter hook on the block's items Caveats: Facebook Messenger needs a Facebook App ID, and Metatag is recommended so services get proper Open Graph previews, and if a service changes its share URL format, the module needs an update Back in episode #548 we covered Social Media Links, and the two look similar: both give you a block of social network icons, with a choice of icon sets. But they solve opposite problems. Social Media Links is "follow us": it links out to your own profiles, using URLs you configure in the block or a field. Better Social Sharing Buttons is "share this": it builds each link on the fly from the current page's title and URL. So plenty of sites could use both
