A shame since the compatibilty page does say that minimum version required is 1.5. apertureboy on "Alex King's Share-This" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/94064/page/5#post-619353 Sat, 22 Sep 2007 16:23:33 +0000 apertureboy 619353@http://wordpress.org/support/ Hi, I am using the plugin on WP mu with no troubles. Ive removed the social tab so only the email tab is there and it's sending emails fine. My problem is that the share this link sits above flash content but will not display over the flash. Alex, is there anyway to fix this? The Flash content cant have wmode=transparent, as it is going full screen. Any thoughts?

Since I can't get any help, I've decided that I don't really need the plugin anyway, so I've taken it off. jafer on "Alex King's Share-This" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/94064/page/5#post-598777 Sun, 05 Aug 2007 15:30:46 +0000 jafer 598777@http://wordpress.org/support/ I installed the share-this plugin and it was working fine but it would cut off another voting plugin I had (show up in the middle of it) with the automatic positioning. So I set the auto stuff to false and positioning the code as in the instructions and it still worked great. The problem I had with that was that when I checked validation it gave me about 40 errors - it said "id" already defined. I had the (div class="sharethis") (?php akst_share_link(); ?)(?php akst_share_form(); ?)(/div) code in my main index template. I took it out of there and put it into the single.php file and it works fine, of course there are no errors, but what I want is to have it on the main site at the bottom of each post with no errors. Can anyone help me with how to get it to stop giving me all the id errors? I know id is supposed to be only for one thing, rather than class. I also tried changing the "id" to "class" but that totally screwed up the little box with all the icons. My site is <a href="http://www.idiotonastick.com/talk." rel="nofollow">http://www.idiotonastick.com/talk.</a> Thanks very much for any advice. Ooops - update: I checked a single page in validation and I got 6 errors, this time (li) errors Line 194, Column 6: document type does not allow element "li" here; missing one of "ul", "ol", "menu", "dir" start-tag . <li><div class="alignleft">« <a href="http://www.idiotonastick.com/talk✉ The mentioned element is not allowed to appear in the context in which you've placed it; the other mentioned elements are the only ones that are both allowed there and can contain the element mentioned. This might mean that you need a containing element, or possibly that you've forgotten to close a previous element. One possible cause for this message is that you have attempted to put a block-level element (such as "" or "<table>") inside an inline element (such as "<a>", "", or "").

I'm using Kate Gasis' excellent Sideblog WordPress plugin but when I bring up an individual post there is no Share-This footer present like there is with my main entries. Anyone? osanne on "Alex King's Share-This" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/94064/page/5#post-591757 Thu, 19 Jul 2007 17:23:13 +0000 osanne 591757@http://wordpress.org/support/ Problem solved by using another plugin.. osanne on "Alex King's Share-This" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/94064/page/5#post-590775 Tue, 17 Jul 2007 19:10:06 +0000 osanne 590775@http://wordpress.org/support/ First of all, I really like the plugin. However I've encountered a problem. I'm running WP2.2.1 with the HemingwayEx-theme. For some reason the "Open Navigation" in the theme malfunctions in IE, but not in FF. It seems that the javascript-function to open/close the navigation uses the same call as Share it. The theme have this: <pre><code><a href="void(0);" title="Show navigation">Mer info</a> <a href="void(0);" title="Hide navigation">Skjul info</a></code></pre> And Share it: <pre><code><a href="void($('akst_form').style.display='none');"><?php _e('Close', 'alexking.org'); ?></a></code></pre> So my guess is that the "javascript:void" has something to do with it. When I disable Share it, it's ok, but I'd love to use that plugin.. Any ideas on how to workaround this?

I'm still in the process of setting up my blog and ran into the same problem as a couple of month ago: I have this plugin installed and everything is working with the social bookmarking sites, however, I can't get the "E-mail" functionality to work. It just doesn't deliver to my inbox or other inboxes. I turned off all plugins and used the default theme but no luck for me. Unfortunately I missed the solution. Would be great if you could help me out another time. Mysite is <a href="http://www.startupedia.de/blog" rel="nofollow">www.startupedia.de/blog</a> PS. Latest plugin version and upgraded to latest WP version. wsperuzzi on "Alex King's Share-This" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/94064/page/5#post-574242 Wed, 13 Jun 2007 17:38:11 +0000 wsperuzzi 574242@http://wordpress.org/support/ Thanks for the great plugin. The plugin is being used for all of my main posts but not for my sideblog posts. Is there a way I can have the "Share This" at the end of each sideblog post once you click its permalink? Currently, it doesn't appear on any of the sideblog posts. My <a href="http://www.thissavageart.com/">blog</a>.

I edited share-this.php and change <code>onClick</code> to <code>onclick</code> and now all is well. jabecker on "Alex King's Share-This" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/94064/page/5#post-570849 Thu, 07 Jun 2007 03:11:27 +0000 jabecker 570849@http://wordpress.org/support/ Thanks for the great plugin, Alex! I installed Sharethis and it's working great. The only problem I'm having is that it won't validate. I've installed v1.4, WP 2.2, and I'm using a theme I developed that validates without Sharethis. The error message I'm getting is: <blockquote>Error Line 1233, column 47: there is no attribute "onClick" </blockquote> This is what's on line 1233: <blockquote><code><li id="akst_tab1" class="selected" onClick="akst_share_tab('1');">Social Web</li></code> </blockquote> This is the only error. I don't get the error on line 1234, which is the form line for the email tab. I've tried using the default theme, and get the same error when validating, so it's not a theme-based problem. Any ideas gratefully accepted! theApe on "Alex King's Share-This" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/94064/page/5#post-567313 Wed, 30 May 2007 20:04:10 +0000 theApe 567313@http://wordpress.org/support/ Is the share this link showing on static pages normal behaviour? If so does anyone know how to stop it without hardcoding it into the template. sunnysky786 on "Alex King's Share-This" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/94064/page/5#post-566252 Mon, 28 May 2007 23:53:52 +0000 sunnysky786 566252@http://wordpress.org/support/ I think there will be people who would like to remove the "Social Sites" tab altogether. it would be appreciated if someone says how this can be done for the benefit of all. thanks in advance, sunnysky786 on "Alex King's Share-This" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/94064/page/5#post-566250 Mon, 28 May 2007 23:52:27 +0000 sunnysky786 566250@http://wordpress.org/support/ Hello everyone, I have installed this plug-in and everything works nice; thanx alex!! I just had a little problem when I was trying to remove the Social Sites tab. I first changed its place with the email tab, but now when the user clicks on "Share" first they see the Social Sites content (while the email tab is highlighted).

I really want to do this, but just cant figure out what i need to change, I tried all kind but so far cant seem to make the links in the pop up change colour/ Does anybody know which bit I need to edit? Many Thanks Martin wsperuzzi on "Alex King's Share-This" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/94064/page/5#post-561019 Sat, 19 May 2007 13:30:33 +0000 wsperuzzi 561019@http://wordpress.org/support/ GregM -- After some tweaking I got it. Thanks. GregM on "Alex King's Share-This" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/94064/page/4#post-560040 Thu, 17 May 2007 14:39:39 +0000 GregM 560040@http://wordpress.org/support/ wsperuzzi: If you check the Readme, you'll find instructions for manually inserting the Share This link in your template, rather than having Share This do it for you automatically. If you do that, and only put the link code in your template where you woud like it to appear (e.g., single.php) and not where you don't want it (e.g., page.php), you'll be all set. And to anyone interested in eliminating the 55K of javascript library overhead caused by Alex's otherwise excellent plugin... It's actually pretty straightforward to do, because the plugin relies on just one substantive capability provided by the prototype.js library: Position.cumulativeOffset, which allows the plugin to position the expanded form in the correct place over the top of your page content. If you nuke that line in share-this.php, set the form.style.left and form.style.top each to 0, change the CSS for akst_form to position:relative from position:absolute, and remove the pesky lines that load the prototype.js library in the first place, you're almost there. The final 2 steps are just to replace all instances of the $() function with document.getElementById() instead and make sure you've manually inserted the form contents right below your form link in your theme (rather than, say, putting the form contents in the footer). What's the outcome of all that? First, the form now appears and disappears from within your page content when you open and close it, rather than appearing over the top of your page content. Second, your visitors don't have to wait for a 55K library to load in addition to your page content just on the outside chance they might click on the Share This link. You can see it in action in the blog section of my <a href="http://counsellingresource.com/features/">mental health information</a> site. I wonder whether Alex would consider adding a simple user-configurable boolean at the start of the code so that those who want the extra 55K overhead can choose to do so, while those who would rather avoid it can switch it off without manually editing the code? All the best, Greg wsperuzzi on "Alex King's Share-This" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/94064/page/4#post-559971 Thu, 17 May 2007 12:26:10 +0000 wsperuzzi 559971@http://wordpress.org/support/ Hey everyone, Thanks Alex for a cool plugin. It is working fine, I just want to make one little tweak. The Share-This link is showing up at the end of my Posts and Pages. How can I remove it from all my Pages? Thanks. My <a href="http://www.thissavageart.com/">blog</a>. GregM on "Alex King's Share-This" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/94064/page/4#post-559912 Thu, 17 May 2007 09:20:25 +0000 GregM 559912@http://wordpress.org/support/ I'm guessing Alex is a busy guy just now, so I'll reply to my own question in case anyone else is interested... Yes, it works fine to replace that ?p=postID structure with the permalink -- just strip off the trailing slash if your permalink setup uses one. For example: <code> </code><code>$posturl = rtrim(get_permalink($post->ID),"/")</code> Then in the relevant link line I mentioned in the previous post, replace that call to the blog URL with: <code> </code><code><?php print($posturl); ?></code> IMHO, this should be done by anybody who doesn't want to risk bots crawling a whole bunch of duplicate content accessed via the ?p= parameter rather than via the permalink. Yes, Alex has included a 'nofollow', and if every bot paid attention to that, there would be no problem with using the original URL structure, but not all bots do. (Having had my share of bad bot problems, I'd rather not take the risk...)

If I kill the non-prettified URL structure by replacing ?p=postID structure with a get_permalink and ?akst_action=share-this appended, this exceedingly cool plugin still seems to work fine, at least under the limited circumstances where I've tried it. Is it OK to do that, or am I inadvertently going to break something and not realize it til it's too late? Thank you Alex!

I've replaced the .gifs with .png and the .png files aren't showing up. This isn't covered in the READ ME or this thread so I thought it safe to ask since it's probably a new one. I reallly want the .pngs so I can control the transparency better. I've already scoured the .php several times and only found where to modify the "share-icon-16x16". Please, where and how do I modify for this plugin to show the .png files?

When installing manually, do this in the .php file: <code>@define('AKST_ADDTOCONTENT', false); @define('AKST_ADDTOFOOTER', true);</code> That worked for me, so hopefully it works for you! relaxedguy on "Alex King's Share-This" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/94064/page/4#post-531929 Thu, 15 Mar 2007 14:50:07 +0000 relaxedguy 531929@http://wordpress.org/support/ Thanks bmonster, it's always the simple stuff, almost too simple. !important is one of those CSS features I never paid much attention to. bmonster99 on "Alex King's Share-This" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/94064/page/4#post-531172 Tue, 13 Mar 2007 20:40:35 +0000 bmonster99 531172@http://wordpress.org/support/ relaxedguy: change the line of css with the padding to: <code>padding: 1px 0 3px 22px !important;</code> That fixed it for me. alexkingorg on "Alex King's Share-This" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/94064/page/4#post-531030 Tue, 13 Mar 2007 15:45:20 +0000 alexkingorg 531030@http://wordpress.org/support/ I guess it won't work in 1.5.x. howbowers on "Alex King's Share-This" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/94064/page/4#post-530935 Tue, 13 Mar 2007 10:33:37 +0000 howbowers 530935@http://wordpress.org/support/ I have a totally different error "Fatal error: Call to undefined function: wp_get_current_commenter() in /home/.freedom/hbowers/tikitalk.astropad.com/wp-content/plugins/share-this/share-this.php on line 636" I'm using WordPress 1.5.2.
