Right now there are too many options and I’d like to limit them to just the 4-6 most popular. Perhaps make the buttons bigger too.

You target the buttons by their classes. Just be accurate by targeting the social button.

If you want to remove the digg button for example :

display:none

@codekameleon: Thank you for the help! This is really a quick and easy solution.
The AddThis icons can be controlled from the “Appearance -> ThemeOptions -> General Options -> Social Sharing Code”.

The code right now is:

You can either remove the unnecessary ones manually or just go to their website and generate your own code:

Hope this helps.

I found the “Social Share Bar & Blog Detail Icons” box in the theme options but, if I check for the shortcode of each social profile, the share URL change for each of them:

I don’t understand where I can find the correct shortcode of, instagram, linkedin, pinterest and houzz…
I would be grateful for a more focused assistance

Could you please re-prase your question? What are you trying to achieve? Could you please share the link of the page which you are trying to change?

There are two types of social icons. The ones in header/top bar they are meant for links to your social profiles.

Then the ones in the end of every article or when used with the social bar page element. They are special links which are used to share the current article via the selected social networks. You need to check how the ones you want to add generate “sharing” links to use them. If you check the code you provided above inside the icon_url links there is a “##CURRENT_PAGE##” string which will be replaced with the current URL and clicking on the link will trigger sharing window.
