The facebook like, google buzz and pin it social media share buttons all have the ability to attach an image as part of the information sent when the share button is clicked.

To add an image to the button the plugin uses the WordPress built-in thumbnail feature. Thumbnails allow you to select an image that is representative of the post/page from the post edit page.

Your theme must have post thumbnails enabled in order for this option to appear. If your theme currently does not support this feature you can enable it by adding the following code to your functions.php file:

if ( function_exists( 'add_theme_support' ) ) {
  add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' );
}

Slick Social Share Buttons also includes default image fields for facebook, google and pin it in the plugin settings page. These will be used in the event that a post thumbnail is not available for the current page.
