 * 1- You need to enable social sharing from `Super Socializer > Social Sharing`
   page in admin area.
    2- Because the Facebook Like button you have enabled is 
   the official button (as is, without any modification) and it is clear by looking
   at the social network selection options.

 * You need to use it like following:
    `<?php echo do_shortcode('[TheChamp-Sharing]');?
   >`

 * No. This is what Facebook like button is supposed to look like.
 * > fb like button load little later in compare to other button in the page.
 * Because it loads in an iframe. This is how it works. We cannot do anything about
   it.
