    Hard to say, I don't think any sharing options are a part of any
    theme design.<br>
    Do you have an example of a theme where sharing options are allowed?<br>

            <br>
            When I look at the plugin territory guidelines I think it's
            pretty clear:<br>
            <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://make.wordpress.org/themes/guidelines/guidelines-plugin-territory/"
              target="_blank">http://make.wordpress.org/themes/guidelines/guidelines-plugin-territory/</a><br>
            Themes must not incorporate the following: Content Sharing
            buttons/links<br>
            <br>
            Last time I had a similar question about a theme, then Chip
            told me that links to social media profiles were ok, but
            sharing was not,<br>
            and now sharing is allowed as well? Could anyone please
            clarify.<br>
