About Pinterest Follow Opt-in
From the official readme · v1.2.5Description
This plugin adds a Pinterest follow opt-in to your WordPress site.
Simply add your Pinterest account ID in the plugin’s settings to activate it for your website. It is jQuery-based and loads by fading in once a user scrolls more than 30% down the page. Likewise, it fades back out when the user scrolls to the 30% mark back up the page.
This Pinterest Follow Opt-in works for both desktop and mobile devices. Mobile display and the “by BestBlogTech.com” link are optional and can be changed in the plugin’s settings.
