Google icon & count invisible on sharing bar

    This is strange, but the Google+ count and icon are missing from the sharing bar on my site with the Heuman theme (Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest are intact). Clicking the white space between Facebook and Pinterest takes me to Google+ (the pop-up window for sharing), so the codes are working, just the visuals invisible on the user interface. I’ve deactivated all of my plugins but to no avail. I’m stumped.

    Can anyone help? Much thanks!

    Is it invisible on a local install? The G+ is always invisible on localhost installations.

    If it’s on the server – from the documentation:

    Note: If your Google+ button is not appearing, you need to make sure that your server has urlCurl enabled. Ask your webhost to enable cURL, and make sure that safe_mode is not on. Otherwise it will not work.

    If you wish to add more sharing icons, please refer to Sharrre documentation. The file to modify via a child theme would be /inc/sharrre.php.

    See if that works!

    Hi Alexander,

    Thanks for your quick reply! My webhost is a localhost with cURL enabled, but I don’t know if safe_mode is off. I will check.

    Meanwhile, I’ve found the following strange solution on Sharrre’s support forum as follows, and it seems to work for both visibility and increase in count:

    $('#googleplus').sharrre({
  share: {
    /* Change this LINE! */
    facebook: true
  },
  enableHover: false,
  enableTracking: true,
  click: function(api, options){
    api.simulateClick();
    api.openPopup('googlePlus');
  }
});
