I'm going through the FeedBurner setup. I already have my WP blog feed burned to it and now I'm trying to get the FeedBurner sharing to appear on my posts.Digg, StumbleUpon, etc. I've done exactly what the instructions say to do and it won't appear. At first, I thought it was because I had the Share This plugin activated but it doesn't work even when it's off. I am using the Cutline WP theme. Has anybody else had problems using FeedFlare? BTW, I do have the service activated in Feedburner.
I thought the FeedFlare was for adding stuff to the RSS feed? I use it and the flares show up fine in RSS readers.
This is from the FB site: FeedFlare Give your subscribers easy ways to email, tag, share, and act on the content you publish by including as many or few of the services listed below. FeedFlare places a simple footer at the bottom of each content item, helping you to distribute, inform and create a community around your content. I'm trying to replace my ShareThis plugin that does the same type of thing with this because it's simpler and more straightforward. The setup tells me to put the code just above the post metadata tag which my theme doesn't have by the same name. I tried approximating where they tell you to put it but it still doesn't show at the bottom of my posts.
The code would go in your single.php or comments.php file. Above a line that looks like this: <?php comments_template(); ?> PHP:
OK. I'm confused. The email I got about your response had this code: <div style="margin:20px; margin-top:5px"> <div class="smallfont" style="margin-bottom:2px">php Code:</div> <pre class="alt2" style="margin:0px; padding:6px; border:1px inset; width:640px; height:52px; overflow:auto"><div dir="ltr" style="text-align:left;"><div class="php"><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;"><?php</span> comments_template<span style="color: #66cc66;">(</span><span style="color: #66cc66;">)</span>; <span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">?></span></div></div></pre> </div> I could not find any lines resembling these in either my single.php or my comments.php file. When I returned to the forum to respond I see your code box had this: <?php comments_template(); ?> Sorry but I'm not a programmer and it appears there is a great deal of coding difference(for the uninitiated)between themes. What do you recommend I do?
I just downloaded and checked out Cutline... The "php comments_template" is on line 20 of single.php. So paste your code onto line 19.
Thanks, a ton!!! I've pasted it in and now I'll wait to see what happens. They say it could take a while to work. That was weird with the email because it spelled out the PHP code. I easily could have found the <?php comments_template(); ?> reference if I was sure that's what I was looking for. Anyway, we got it and I'll let you know what happens. Have a good one. Jeff
