I always wanted to have a nice, good looking plugin for wordpress to display the social bookmarking buttons for digg, reddit, … I personally don’t like the small buttons displayed on numerous sites. On the other side, having large icons occupies too much space in the layout.
I created SocioFluid, displaying some small icons, which grows when the mouse is moved over, similar to the mac effect. SocioFluid plugin uses jquery with icondock plugin to render the “mac effect”:

SocioFluid adds to your wordpress posts the buttons to the major bookmarking sites. In the current version of the plugin(v0.9beta) the icons to be displayed can be selected from administration panel. By default all the items are selected:

The plugin was tested on wordpress 2.3 and wordpress 2.5.1
If you have any request for a new feature for this plugin you can propose/vote or sponsor it on sociofluid page on openversion.com:
Licence: the plugin is distributed under dual license MIT-LICENSE and GPL-LICENSE. It includes jquery and icondock which are distributed under the same license.

If you could add an Email icon that would be awesome.

08|Aug|2008 3Hmmm. When you mouse-over the icons they all just show “A” as their description. Can this be fixed in a future version?

13|Aug|2008 4Hi I have implemented this on my site, but when you move the mouseover the buttons they are highlighted with a black background. any idea how i can remove this?

15|Aug|2008 5Hi, I took a look on your website. The problem is that the plugin uses the inherit the css style defined in the page. Each icon is a link and is displayed accordingly. For example for an ordinary link in your page when the mouse is onover the background is black. In style.css the #000 is used.
a:hover, a:active {
color:#fff;
text-decoration:none;
background:#000;
}
Remember sociofluid id still beta. In the next version i’ll define a separate syle.
