 * I am using Tiny Frame as my theme and have installed Addtoany for my social links.
   I currently don’t have a live site, just working on localhost on my PC at the
   moment.
 * I’ve added the Facebook share but it gives variable results which I don’t understand.
 * On my first page (either set up using first page template or as a standard page)
   clicking on the FB share button results in the Facebook share popup displaying
   Share on Facebook
    [http://www.addtoany.com/add_to/facebook?linkurl=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%2Fmysite%2F&linkname=West+Yorkshire+Therapy+Centre+%7C+Hyperbaric+oxygen+treatment+for+multiple+sclerosis&linknote](http://www.addtoany.com/add_to/facebook?linkurl=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%2Fmysite%2F&linkname=West+Yorkshire+Therapy+Centre+%7C+Hyperbaric+oxygen+treatment+for+multiple+sclerosis&linknote)
   Clicking on the displayed Share button bring up another popup with “Facebook –
   Addtoany and the link [http://www.addtoany.com/add_to/facebook?linkurl=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%2Fmysite%2F&linkname=West+Yorkshire+Therapy+Centre+%7C+Hyperbaric+oxygen+treatment+for+multiple+sclerosis&linknote](http://www.addtoany.com/add_to/facebook?linkurl=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%2Fmysite%2F&linkname=West+Yorkshire+Therapy+Centre+%7C+Hyperbaric+oxygen+treatment+for+multiple+sclerosis&linknote)
 * However on other pages I get the brief “connecting to Facebook message then the
   expected “Share on Facebook” Localhost and the url LocalHost which is what I’d
   hoped for.
 * I’ve placed the Addtoany share icon in a widget area at the bottom of the pages
 * What is going wrong with my first page?
 * I should say I am very, very new to WordPress and everything linked with it and
   coding, at the moment, is a complete black art which I’m trying to avoid at all
   costs if I can help it.
 * Any help, gratefully received.

 * A page has to be published publicly (not locally) for some services such as Facebook.
