Adding social sharing buttons to your photos is an easy way to let your website visitors share your work if they like your work. Let’s take a look at how to add social share buttons to your WordPress image galleries.
WordPress galleries can’t have social sharing icons by default but it’s easier than ever to get set up with a plugin like Modula to speed up the process.
To add social share button in WordPress image galleries, you’ll need to follow these 5 steps:

Grab your copy of Modula here or from the WordPress.org plugin repository to get started right away.
Step 2. Create an image gallery with Modula
