   Hi,

   I want the ShareThis button to appear at the top of each posts , after the date (and ** comments) as shown here

   I think i have to do this manually, ( as said here )

   (i'm using "u-design" theme, so that may be a little bit different)
   I've put the span tags i need in archive.php, page-Blog.php, and single.php. It looks like this :

   </span>   /   <?php comments_popup_link( __( 'Leave a comment', 'udesign' ), __( '1 Comment', 'udesign' ), __( '% Comments', 'udesign' ) ); ?>   /   <span class='st_twitter' ></span> <span class='st_facebook' ></span> <span class='st_fblike' ></span> <span class='st_plusone' ></span> <?php edit_post_link(__('Edit', 'udesign'), '<div style="float:right;margin:0 10px;">', '</div>'); ?>

   The place is ok, for the single article pages, its ok too.
   But when i'm on the blog page (which shows excerpts), if i click on the twitter button for example, it shares the blog page, not the post.
   It's the same with the category pages (which shows excerpts too). For example if i'm on the "sports" category and if i want to share an article from this page, if i click on the twitter button, it'll share the "Sports page", not the article.

   I think it has something to do with st_title='<?php the_title(); ?>' st_url='<?php the_permalink(); but i dont know what to do...

   Thankd i advance, and sorry for my worpress/php newbiness and my bad english

   (btw, i have another problem, the facebook like and google+1 buttons are really slow to appear, is it normal?)

   Hi sir,
   Yes, you will have to modify the sharethis span tags to be added to the code of the site like this:
   <span class="st_sharethis" st_title='<?php the_title(); ?>' st_url='<?php the_permalink(); ?>' displayText="ShareThis"></span>

   Please modify all the span tags added to your blog as above and let us know if it doesn't solve your issue.
   Please note that Sharethis uses native fblike and G+1 buttons.
   Regards,
   SharethisSupport Team

   Sorry, i don't really understand

   i only want the fb share, twitter, fblike ang g+ buttons (but if the fblike and g+ buttons are too slow, i could remove them...), i dont need the sharethis green button.

   where do i need to change this, and what do i have to change exactly?
   <span class="st_sharethis" st_title='<?php the_title(); ?>' st_url='<?php the_permalink(); ?>' displayText="ShareThis"></span>

   if i go to the ShareThis config page -> modify the html tags, i have this :
   <span class='st_facebook' st_title='<?php the_title(); ?>' st_url='<?php the_permalink(); ?>' displayText='facebook'></span><span class='st_twitter' st_title='<?php the_title(); ?>' st_url='<?php the_permalink(); ?>' displayText='twitter'></span>
   i've tried to change the ' with " (because its the only difference i see with what you've written) but its the same thing...

   its not a problem with your plugin, because if i i choose "Automatically add ShareThis to your posts?*", i have other buttons at the bottom of the posts, and they are working, even in a category page
   (i.e i have 2 lines of buttons : the one added in the php code, wich dont share the right url, and the one automatically added, which works"

   ok, i think i've understand, i only need to put the <span class="st_sharethis" st_title='<?php the_title(); ?>' st_url='<?php the_permalink(); ?>' displayText="ShareThis"></span> codes in the php files, and it works

   thanks

   i've removed the facebook like button, its too slow.
   the other buttons are a little bit slow too, but it'll be ok..
   (but the g+ button is one pixel down)

   Hello sir,
   In order to add the buttons at the top of each post,you will have to add the sharethis code manually(modifying the sharethis code from sharethis plugin configuration page won't work) to your blog as explained here:
   http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-sharethis-share-email-tweet-like-1-made-simple-how-to-place

   Please note that you can get the code of the buttons(by selecting the website platform) from here:
   http://sharethis.com/publishers/get-sharing-tools
   and then modify the sharethis span tags as follows:
   

   <span class='st_facebook' st_title='<?php the_title(); ?>' st_url='<?php the_permalink(); ?>' displayText='facebook'></span>
   <span class='st_twitter' st_title='<?php the_title(); ?>' st_url='<?php the_permalink(); ?>' displayText='facebook'></span>
   <span class='st_fblike' st_title='<?php the_title(); ?>' st_url='<?php the_permalink(); ?>' displayText='facebook'></span>
   <span class='st_plusone' st_title='<?php the_title(); ?>' st_url='<?php the_permalink(); ?>' displayText='facebook'></span>
