Highlight and Share


Ownership

Highlight and Share was originally created by Ronald Huereca (DLX Plugins / MediaRon). Since July 2026, the plugin is owned and maintained by BerryPress.

The goal of Highlight and Share is to provide an intuitive, lightweight, and extremely flexible way for users to see social sharing options when interacting with your site's content, images, or headlines.
