Always Visible Pin It Button for Pinterest
A free WordPress plugin that adds a Pinterest Pin It button to your images — and keeps it always visible. Unlike other WordPress Pinterest plugins that rely on hover, this works perfectly on mobile where hover doesn't exist. Available on WordPress.org.
Why Your WordPress Site Needs an Always-Visible Pinterest Button
Pinterest is one of the biggest traffic drivers for bloggers, recipe sites, and visual content creators. But most Pinterest plugins make a critical mistake: they only show the Pin It button when a user hovers over an image.
The problem? Over 60% of web traffic comes from mobile devices — and there's no hover on a touchscreen. Your mobile visitors never see the Pin It button, and you lose potential pins and traffic.
This plugin solves that by keeping the button always visible on every qualifying image. No hover required. Desktop users see it immediately, mobile users can tap it instantly. More visibility means more pins, more pins means more traffic back to your site.
It works seamlessly with all major caching plugins, automatically skips ads and video embeds, and gives you full control over which images show the button. Check out all my WordPress plugins or jump straight to the feature list below.

How This WordPress Pinterest Plugin Works
Pinterest Pin It Button Plugin — FAQ
Does this plugin work on mobile?
Yes — that's the main advantage. Since the button is always visible, mobile and tablet users can pin your images without needing to hover. Most Pinterest plugins fail on mobile because they rely on hover events.
Will it slow down my site?
No. The plugin is lightweight with minimal CSS and JavaScript. It makes no external API calls, loads assets only on single post/page views, and auto-excludes itself from caching plugin optimization to prevent conflicts.
Does it work with WP Rocket and other caching plugins?
Yes. The plugin automatically excludes its JS and CSS from minification and combination by WP Rocket, LiteSpeed Cache, W3 Total Cache, SG Optimizer, and Autoptimize. No configuration needed.
Will it add buttons to my ads or video embeds?
No. The plugin automatically detects and skips images inside ad containers (Google AdSense, Mediavine, Ezoic, AdThrive, and more) and video embeds (YouTube, Vimeo, etc.).
Can I choose which images get the button?
Yes. You can filter by orientation (horizontal, vertical, square), set minimum width and height thresholds, exclude specific images with a CSS class, and in the Pro version exclude by category, tag, author, or page.
What's the difference between Free and Pro?
The free version gives you a fully functional always-visible Pin It button with targeting, positioning, and styling options. Pro adds analytics, A/B testing, UTM tracking, advanced exclusion rules, custom colors, and custom post type support.
How does the A/B testing work?
Choose what to test (position, size, color, or shape), pick two variants, and set a duration (7, 14, or 30 days). The plugin randomly shows each variant to visitors and tracks clicks. After the test period, it shows you the winner with click rates.
Does it work with Gutenberg?
Yes. It works with the WordPress block editor, classic editor, and standard content output from any theme.
