 [donkeydigest](https://profiles.wordpress.org/donkeydigest/) October 8, 2021

I wouldn't have left a bad review, but I looked in the support forum and the plugin
author hasn't responded to a support request in over a year. So why bother? The 
plugin just doesn't work. The social icons never appear in the widget.

It's a simple widget with enough settings for size and form and a good selection
of networks to choose from. No banners or popups to pay. They sell themes, so can
support by buying those.

site.
