 * Hi,
 * I was wondering if it was possible to remove Sociable from the Print-Friendly
   version of articles?
 * Thanks in advance!

 * Hi,
 * I had the same problem. I found the solution on the website provided bellow:
 * > Two excellent WordPress Plugins are WP-Print by Lester Chan and Sociable by
   > Joost de Valk. Unfortunately, these two plugins don’t play nicely together.
   > To prevent any Sociable links/images from being printed from a WP-Print screen,
   > first disable automatic placement of Sociable from the Sociable admin page.
   > Next, paste the following PHP code into the Single Post file of your theme (
   > at the location where you want sociable to appear): <?php do_shortcode(‘[donotprint]’);?
   > ><?php if (function_exists(‘sociable_html’)) { echo sociable_html(); } ?><?
   > php do_shortcode(‘[/donotprint]’); ?> …then repeat this for any other template
   > pages where you want Sociable to appear!

 * You could also just add something like this to your stylesheet:
 *     ```
       @media print {
       div.sociable{
       display: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * which will hide Sociable from all printed pages using that stylesheet.

 * hi, fncll. 🙂
 * i tried your fix, but the print page still shows the sociable icons.
 * i wondered if perhaps i’d dropped the sociable code into my pages somewhere manually
   so that it somehow wasn’t using the sociable class but it is inside the sociable
   div.
 * i can’t figure out why your fix won’t work. any ideas?

 * Is there still no fix for this? I really regret upgrading the Sociable plugin.
 * The CSS suggestion only works partly when placed like this:
 *     ```
       @media print {
           #print-link {
               display: none;
           }
       }
   
       .sociable{
       	display: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * That removes the icons from the print, but not the URLs at the bottom.
 * The Akras14/tannerhelland.com solution works.
