In Novashare you can enable Pinterest pins that appear when hovering over an image in your content. This enables your visitors to easily pin an image from your site to Pinterest.
This feature is done entirely with inline CSS on the front-end with no additional JavaScript (and no jQuery). You can see this in action on the Novashare demo. We also have more styles coming for the Pinterest hover pin.

Customize pin title and pin description
You can customize the pin title and pin description that is sent to Pinterest when someone pins an image. If you are using the WordPress Block Editor, click on an image and you will see the Novashare “Pin Title” and “Pin Description” fields on the right-hand side.

Note: Pinterest does not yet support passing both a title and description from a pin. We’ve added both fields in advance in case you want to save time later, but currently, only the title will be sent to Pinterest.
The above fields are also available in the Classic Editor.
Add a pin repin ID
The pin repin ID can help increase your share counts by associating existing saved pins from your website on Pinterest. To find a pin’s ID, simply click into an already existing pin on Pinterest. In your browser’s address bar you will see the pin’s ID.

If you are using the WordPress Block Editor, click on the image you want to associate with an existing pin. On the right-hand side, paste the pin’s ID.

The above field is also available in the Classic Editor.
Disable pinning
Disabling pinning prevents the image from being shown in the Pinterest multi-select tool (for example, with the Chrome extension). It also prevents the Pinterest hover button from showing on an image.
If you are using the WordPress Block Editor, click on the image you want to disable pinning. On the right-hand side, toggle on the “Disable Pinning” option.

The above option is also available in the Classic Editor.
