 * I’ve installed and activated this plugin but I get a fatal error when I try to
   visit my site.
 * Fatal error: Call to undefined function curl_init() in C:\wamp\www\wp-content\
   plugins\floating-social-bar\class-floating-social-bar.php on line 709
 * Only added my twitter handle.

 * This plugin **will not** work on local server environment if you don’t have curl
   enabled (which most local servers do not). Please enable curl on your localserver.
 * Because Google+ doesn’t have a real API, we have to use curl to get the Google
   + share counts. Most live servers have curl enabled, but local servers such as
   WAMP choose to disable it by default.

 * I have made this change and I no longer get a fatal error but the bar doesn’t
   appear. While I set my site up I am using twenty twelve then I’ll be making changes
   to my own CSS. Is there something else I have to do to get it to work?

 * You do have to go in the settings and drag-drop the services bar. Also you have
   to check which post types you want the bar to be added in. Look at the installation
   video.
