SharadShareaholic for Publishers: FB Like, Send, Google +1 Sharing Buttons Support
by at 3am, July 1st, 2011

Starting in Version 4.0.2, Shareaholic for Publishers / WordPress now lets you include Facebook Send and Google +1 buttons alongside the Facebook Like button that we introduced some time back.

The buttons are available in ‘new mode’ (aka JavaScript mode), so switch to the new mode if you haven’t already.  You can customize the look and appearance of these buttons via the admin panel:

likeButtonsAdminPanel

You can also manually insert the following code snippet anywhere on the page (on which sexybookmarks is enabled):

<div class='shareaholic-like-buttonset'>
    <a class='shareaholic-fblike' shr_layout='standard' shr_showfaces='false'  shr_send = 'false' shr_action='like' shr_href='http://www.yahoo.com'></a>
    <a class='shareaholic-fbsend' shr_href='http://www.yahoo.com'></a>
    <a class='shareaholic-googleplusone' shr_size='standard' shr_count='true' shr_href='http://www.yahoo.com'></a>
</div>

You can use/omit any number of these anchor tags based on the buttons you want to use. You can also place them anywhere on any webpage. You have the following options:

Common:
shr_href = 'http://www.shareaholic.com' (the url you want users to share).

Facebook Like Button:
shr_layout = 'standard' (standard/button_count/box_count)
shr_showfaces = 'true' (true/false)
shr_send = 'false' (true/false)
shr_action = 'like' (like/recommend)

Google +1 button:
shr_count = 'yes' (yes/no)
shr_size = 'standard' (small/medium/standard/tall)

How can I get the Google +1 button to appear in the standard Shareaholic button set? This would look a lot neater and take up less space.

I installed Shareaholic on my blog but the Twitter and Google + counter at the top of the page DOES NOT count at all. How can I fix that?

TheCaroleShow The counts are direct calls to the corresponding service, which should reflect the actual shares of the specific page being shared. If this is not your experience, we should troubleshoot. Please, email support@shareaholic.com or use our contact form https://www.shareaholic.com/contact describing the issue and providing your website address for review. Thank you.

Great plugin - I do however see some problems where the top-widget causes links on the home-page to overflow (i.e. outside of the actual anchor-tag). Hope this will be fixed soon.

Well Peter above says he already did install it.

For me, when the WordPress admin bar was activated, the "Install"/"X" options didn't appear on the nag banner for some reason. I deactivated the admin bar briefly and was finally able to click the X to get rid of it.

Incredibly annoying, guys. Especially in the way it pushed the content of the page down a bit whenever it appeared, a second or two after the rest of the page loaded.

I love Sexy Bookmarks and am so happy to have the +1 Button Integration. I have one problem, though - language! For some reason the text that appears when you hover the button is in English on my index page (fabulous) but it appears in other languages on post pages. ?? Is there a way to fix/override/alter this?

Thanks!

Firstly, many thanks for developing and sharing this great plugin.

We're using a WooThemes theme on our site but have a couple of issues:

1. The "counters" next to the "Facebook" and "Google +1" buttons aren't visible due to the colour scheme of our site. Where can I configure the colours used?

2. When "liking" (via the Facebook button), the link is posted into a user's Facebook profile, but using the WooThemes logo. I'm happy to have the WooThemes logo on our site, but don't want it appearing in the Facebook streams of people "liking" us. How/where can I specify the image to be used?

@Brian... I saw that all of your buttons and +1 was working just fine was this resolved for you? I noticed that when you select a category it is like in a blog page then you click that link and the icons appear!

Perhaps the settings are not correct? I would check there and if its not in the settings configuration I would contact these guys directly!
