$wpide_share_networks = array( 'x', 'facebook', 'linkedin', 'whatsapp', 'email' );
// Heading above the links.
$wpide_share_label = 'Share this post';

add_filter( 'the_content', function ( $content ) use ( $wpide_share_networks, $wpide_share_label ) {
    if ( ! is_singular( 'post' ) || ! in_the_loop() || ! is_main_query() ) {
        return $content;
    }

    $url   = rawurlencode( get_permalink() );
    $title = rawurlencode( wp_strip_all_tags( get_the_title() ) );
    $all   = array(

    $links = '';

    foreach ( $wpide_share_networks as $network ) {
        if ( ! isset( $all[ $network ] ) ) {
            continue;
        }

        $external = 'email' !== $network ? ' target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"' : '';
        $links   .= '<a class="wpide-share-' . esc_attr( $network ) . '" href="' . esc_url( $all[ $network ][1], array( 'https', 'mailto' ) ) . '"' . $external .
