Which display type are you trying to use (icons, genericons, or text with icons)? I can take a look if you provide a link to your site.
My icons are likewise not showing. I just started using this plugin so I’ve never had them working before.
My site is curiousaboutmagic.com. I am using the basic WordPress 2012 theme on a fresh install of WordPress 3.6.1. I am using Firefox 23.0.1, and I deactivated and uninstalled every other plugin I have, so at this time QuickShare is the only thing in the list. I also reinstalled Java, because why the heck not?
When I visit the QuickShare Configuration Settings page and select the first icon option, the sample icons it shows me to the bottom right look strange. There are only 4 of them, for starters, and the first three icon boxes are blank. The final one is the “Share Via Email” button. When I mouseover the first three blank boxes the popups show Share on LinkedIn/Pinterest/Google+. When I select the Genericons option, I get four images for the same buttons. The Text option also gives me only those four options as well. On the Share Types page under the QuickShare config tab, I have every share type except Tumblr selected.
I don’t know how to fix this. What should I do?
Interestingly enough, they display correctly (as Genericons) for me on your site in Chrome, Firefox, and IE (on Windows 8).
The only thing I can think of – you don’t happen to have the Genericons font installed locally, do you? Although that doesn’t explain why it wouldn’t work for the other display types. Java has nothing to do with it whatsoever, but there’s probably something in your setup that’s causing issues (most likely with some locally installed font). You don’t happen to have Open Sans installed on your computer either, do you? There’s a very small chance there could be some interaction there, since that’s being loaded by your theme and potentially the WP admin (with MP6).
So the good news is that it looks okay for most users, but the bad news is that something’s up with your setup.
Well, I didn’t have those fonts in particular, but I do have quite a few of them. I ran Font Frenzy and restored my system fonts to their default and the problem persisted.
Maybe this was foolish of me not to think about this in the beginning, but I disabled my Adblocker in Firefox and that fixed the problem. The icons are now showing for me just fine. Now I’m just curious if it’s some particular foul demon of my local machine that I must exorcise, or what.
Apparently there’s a virus called “QuickShare” so perhaps your adblocker was messing with this plugin of the same name. What program is it? I might be able to find out exactly what it was doing. Or, it might just be something up with your system.
In fact the problem seems to be with AddBlock on Firefox.
Firefox 24.0 for Mac + AddBlockPlus 2.3.2 (standard filters + french ones) + QuickShare
Result: G+ and Mail are still there, FB and twitter have… vanished.
This is a key problem, as the couple Firefox/AddBlock is quite common.
A solution ?
Thanx in advance and bravo for this precious plugin.
Unfortunately, the problem is with the adblocker and not this plugin, so I can’t do anything to fix it. Their filters are a bit too aggressive, catching legiitmate/desired links to share to Facebook and Twitter. My guess is that they consider sharing links as ads. But they don’t care enough about Google+ to bother blocking that and the email one looks just like a standard email link, so they could never block that.
You should try contacting AdBlock support to request that they adjust their filters to allow social sharing links. It’s possible that they don’t mean to remove these, but I’m guessing they do (and this also might be related to the specific filters you’re using).

Explain that Facebook and Twitter sharing links from the QuickShare WordPress plugin are being blocked. They are marked up as a simple list of links, with sharing icons and formatting being applied by CSS and with no JavaScript being used to display or change the links in any way.
Mi icon bar does not appear as well. kitchenfuss.com.
I can make it to appear using shortcode, but the_content() option does not bring up the social bar.
Oddly in my test site it works just fine.
lobong, please post a new topic with your issue, it is unrelated to this one (looks like you need help setting QuickShare up with Woocommerce).
