I've been using ShareThis wordpress plugin without any problem for a long time. Today, I am facing a strange issue. I turned auto position of posts from sharethis setting to be off and edited the code on single.php to display sharethis button right after post title. Now its not showing up at all. I even removed the code again, turned that setting to yes but that even doesn't work. So much so that I removed and reinstalled a fresh copy of ShareThis, still showing nothing. Can you please share possible solutions? Thanks.
What codes you use in single.php? Maybe the function returns the output, not echo-ing it (just my guess)
I used this code <?php if (function_exists('sharethis_button')) { sharethis_button(); } ?> Code (markup): as shared by ShareThis personally.
Lol weird. Anyway I have no experience in share this plugin. Err..you can try remove the if ().... Just use <?php sharethis_button(); ?> PHP: See if it triggers any error?
Alright, I will check this out. However, I've got another working solution by manually putting ShareThis widget code in php files. However, the problem was through using plugin. My point was I undo everything but even then it wasn't working as it should. Thanks for the replies
Did you try clearing the cache from your cookies, internet explorere, firefox? Do you have WP Super Cache installed? That can be a pain and can mess up other plugins. Have you updated all plugins and are the compatible with WP version you are currently using?
Yes, tried all of that. In fact, I removed the plugin and did everything that could possible make issues but couldn't get it to work through plugin. For now, I've installed direct code of ShareThis in php files where needed.
hi i am facing the same issue. changed the theme twice and after that share this has disappeared...grr
Thanks egoldinc to share... I've been using ShareThis for years but haven't changed those settings which I did and then it stopped working.... guess this is a major issue in this very popular plugin....
