Hi,

Thanks for the hard work. I saw this plugin in a couple of sites and it really is one of the best social integration plugins i've come across.
I tried integrating this to my "to be blog", however, it doesn't show up. I'm using WP 3.0.
I had disabled all other plugins to test this out... but no luck :(

I noticed, in firebug, the plugin's HTML is greyed out !! the css file is included though... but the html never seems to be rendered to the page. The page width has increased from 950 to a 1000 (this confirms the import of css..)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey Ron, thanks for the kind words. Do you have a link I can take a look at? It sounds like an issue with the JavaScript not loading correctly.

@Monji: I think there is a problem with WordPress 3.0!

Hey budhajeewa, can you be more specific about the problem? I'm currently running it on WordPress 3.0 without any problems.

@Monji: Obviously the problem is "Plugin doesn't show up". Otherwise I'd have started a new thread eh?

Plugin works fine in the admin panel, but don't show the share bar in the blog!

I was actually asking for specifics of the problem, not just "Plugin doesn't show up," as that doesn't help to debug the issue. Either post a link to your blog or let me know more details, including:
- Is the HTML code being inserted correctly?
- Are you manually inserting the PHP code into your templates?
- Is auto mode checked in the settings?
Obviously it's not possible for me to understand the problem without seeing it or knowing more about it so it's best you post a link.

I'm having the same problem. I don't know if I did sth wrong, but my auto mode is on and I didn't inserted any HTML code anywhere. Should I?

Hey gocarrera,

So it turns out the theme your using doesn't have the wp_footer hook in the footer.php file - this is the hook I used in the Sharebar plugin to load the necessary JavaScript function. While this is a mistake on the part of the theme maker and something they should definitely add to their theme, I went ahead and adjusted my plugin to load the function in the header instead.

Please update the plugin and try it again!

Hi Monji,

I´ve updated the plug in and it still is not working.

Should I place sth in the code?

Best,

I was about to post about plugin not showing up after upgrade, but found this thread. I looked through the source code to see where the issue was.

My problem is jquery. Plugin loaded its jquery inside my header causing a conflict with another script, breaking both in the end.

I think you need to make it an option to load it in the footer or header.

Hey viktor and gocarrera, I've just updated the plugin once again - please try it out and let me know if it's working in your themes.

If not, I'll consider adding the option of loading it in the footer or header, however most likely it is due to poor coding in the theme files itself.

Worked! Now it´s ok!

Tks!

Works! Great.

I'm working on another blog and it seems like plugin doesn't work here. Not sure why this time.

FYI, it's Firefox 4 beta that caused me login issues. Not sure why. Chrome is fine. =)

I've added horizontal tag to my single.php only.

Thanks.
Monjurul Dolon Posted 1 year ago #

That's great news, I'm glad it worked out for you! The second blog doesn't seem to be adding the Sharebar code to the post - is Auto mode turned on? If not try manually adding the PHP to your single.php file.

Also, that's kind of weird FF4 wasn't letting you login. I'll try to download it and test it out to see why that happens, thanks for letting me know.

Hey,
Now FF4 working. Go figure. I've manually added code for horizontal bar to single.php Automatic wasn't working. If I recall correctly, I added it below content tag.
