# Verification won't work

 * Verification page shows an API, but the button always shows a message to “install
   sharaholic before verifying”, and never seems to recognise the API or whatever
   that item might be.
 * So I searched for an additional shareaholic plugin, and found first what appears
   to be a duplicate of the currently installed shareaholic plugin, which I’ve been
   using for several months without verification because the button doesn’t trigger
   verification.

 * Hi Dean,
 * Thanks for the info! It appears that the you’ve created a duplicate website on
   your Shareaholic.com dashboard, and tried verifying the incorrect Site ID by 
   mistake. So there is less confusion, I removed the duplicate website from your
   dashboard and verified the correct one. Also, the Shareaholic code is already
   installed in your site’s template, so no need to do anything with that. 🙂
 * Please let me know if there’s anything else I can help you with.
 * Thanks,
    Mary Anne
