Yes this is quite annoying and if you’re like me and automatically have your cookies and cache cleared each time you close the browser, the annoying ad banner returns.
If really it must be in there, how about putting it as an image on the Shareholic options page so it’s out of the way and not irritating your users?
Still, gotta love this plugin right?
Thanks =)
@pinkgarden @robnalexpress we’re working on a better opt-out!
ps. also, if you’re using the Chrome extension, you will not see the bar at all, no matter what. Similar functionality coming soon for Firefox.
This is new.
A month later, any update on this. Ready to delete this plugin!
For others with this issue, here’s how I updated my theme to hide this eyesore.
If you already have a CSS file that affects your admin dashboard, just add the following to that file.
/* Remove shareaholic promo */
#ext-promo-prompt {display:none !important;}
If you do not, create a CSS file (I called mine remove_shrsb_promo.css). To make this file work in your admin dashboard add the following to your functions.php.
function remove_shrsb_show_promo() {
if (is_admin()) {
wp_enqueue_style('remove-shrsb-promo', get_template_directory_uri().'/remove_shrsb_promo.css');
}
}
add_action('set_current_user', 'remove_shrsb_show_promo');

Hey guys,
I see you now have the pop-up on just the plugin page. I do think that’s a better idea then it spread across all admin pages =) Thanks for re-considering that.
Still the best social sharing plugin out there in my opinion. And I have tried pretty much everything else that’s available!
@pinkgarden thanks so much!! we’re always listening and eager to incorporate feedback 🙂
