myCred Social Share Add on 1.4.9
Wordpress Plugins Mycred 4.8 (505 reviews)
The myCred Social Share Add on is a WordPress extension that connects your site's content to the myCred gamification plugin. It gives you a direct way to reward users with points each time they share a post, page, or product on social media. The add on works with Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and Threads, so the most common sharing platforms are covered. When a visitor clicks a share button and completes the action, points land in their existing myCred balance automatically. There is no separate reward system to manage, and the whole process runs quietly in the background. The reward arrives immediately after the share is fully completed. Your readers just click and share, and their balance updates without any extra steps. That turns a simple action into a reason to return, because the points they earn can feed into whatever rules, ranks, or badges you have already set up.
From the admin settings, you decide exactly what each share is worth. A Twitter share may earn the same as a Facebook share, or you can assign different values for each network. This flexibility lets you reward the platforms that bring the most value. You can also place limits on how often a single user earns points, whether that means per day or across the whole site. The plugin checks for duplicate shares and failed attempts, so points only go out for genuine activity. It includes options to restrict rewards to specific content types or categories, meaning you can choose that only blog posts generate points, or only product pages. If you need to place buttons somewhere specific, the shortcode [mycred_social_share] drops them into any post, page, or theme template without touching code. The admin panel gives you full control without requiring any custom code. You can change these settings at any time, and they apply immediately.

Because this add on is built specifically for myCred, everything stays inside one system. The plugin does not require any additional setup beyond the main myCred plugin. Point types you already use are available when configuring rewards. This keeps everything consistent across your site. The settings panel lives in the myCred menu, so gamification controls remain in one place. Points earned from sharing work with your existing rules, badges, or levels. For developers, the plugin exposes action and filter hooks, allowing you to adjust how points are calculated or trigger custom actions after a share is recorded. The sharing buttons are responsive, so they look right on phones, tablets, and desktops. The plugin is translation ready, which makes the labels easy to localize for your audience. It is coded to be lightweight, so page speed is not a concern. It stays compatible with current WordPress and myCred releases, and security is handled through input sanitization and careful checks on share requests.
Site owners who want more eyes on their content get a practical tool here. A blog can reward readers for sharing articles, bringing in new visitors and strengthening social reach. An online store can turn happy customers into promoters by rewarding shares of product pages. Community forums and membership sites can encourage members to spread discussions, which may attract new people to join. News sites and educational platforms can motivate readers to share timely updates or learning resources. In every case, the add on ties those shares directly to the myCred points system, so users have a tangible reason to participate. The dynamic is a simple exchange: your audience spreads your content, and you give them something in return. That works best when the rewards are balanced, which is exactly what the configuration options are designed to help you achieve. No complex setup is required, which makes it easy for any site owner to adopt.
