Widgets with counters

Quick question: Does anyone know of either code or an installable widget that will do either of these things in Ghost:

  • Show number of followers on given social media channels
  • Show how many times an individual post has been shared on social media

I’ve got the AddThis “follow” and “share” buttons installed, but the follow one doesn’t show a count per service, and the share one is supposed to show share counts but doesn’t.

Not a big deal; just a nice-to-have. Thanks!

Are you using Cloudflare? If so you could possible use one of their apps on their platform? Worth having a look to see if any of these work for your use case by searching for “social” or “share” etc: Cloudflare Apps
