Hi Felipe,

Here’s the screen shot:

<script async src=”//s.imgur.com/min/embed.js” charset=”utf-8″></script>

I’d like to get rid of that like bit text ‘Search For’ that sits over the search box.

Thanks, Andy.

Thanks, but the article doesn’t talk about how to customise a widget. I know how to install a widget, place it in a sidebar and all that. I just want to change the appearance of a widget.

Thanks so much for your help kafleg. I find it incredible that a current wordpress theme doesn’t have an easy way of placing social icons on the home page in a prominent way. I know that you can get a plugin like Header & Footer, and place code in the header. But I haven’t got the skills with code to put the social icons precisely where I want them to be. Looks like I’m going to have to spend money on paying a developer to do that. Meanwhile, if there’s anybody out there who has any other suggestions, I’d be very grateful for them. Thanks,

Thanks for that. The code I have for the tweet button is this:

$alignment = $this->tw_get_option(‘tw_align’);
if ($alignment!=’none’ && $this->tw_get_option(‘tw_align’)!=null && $alignment!=”){
if ($alignment==’right’) $alignstr = ‘;float:right;margin-left:10px;’;
if ($alignment==’left’) $alignstr = ‘;float:left;margin-right:10px;’;
if ($alignment==’center’) $alignstr = ‘;float:none;margin:0 auto;text-align:center;’;

The code I have for the Facebook button is:

add_option(‘fblike_style’, ‘float: right; margin-left: 10px;’);

So what should I just to make the two buttons just sit next to each other on the same line, rather than on top of each as they are at the moment: link to page

Thanks in advance…

Thanks Matt, thanks a lot. Your plug in does look great and I’ve just installed it. But I did a test ping from ping.fm and it didn’t register on my WordPress site. I don’t know what I’ve done wrong.

But that aside, my biggest question is: if your plug in works, will it allow me to post something in WordPress and have ping.fm deliver that AUTOMATICALLY to Facebook, Twitter and Linkedin etc? That’s what I’m looking for. Posting status update in ping.fm and having them distributed is less important. Basically, I want my Facebook friends and Twitter followers etc to know when I’ve posted a new article on my blog.

Thanks for everything. Andy.
