    Share Link and Button Icons Missing From Thread

    Hi Guys,

    Since i installed the latest VBSEO, i have noticed the Twitter, FB icons no longer appear in threads or posts, they do how-ever appear as drop down menu. I can find the option in the control panel to change it so the icons appear in threads.

    Also i have one more issue, the Share link did not appear after installing the latest VBSEO, as you can see here: Chloe Moretz Kick Ass star shows off lacy bra on the red carpet - Chloe Moretz News And Updates - Chloe Moretz Forum

    only the "Like" link shows in posts.
    Not sure whats going on here.

    Thanks.

    Make sure your social bookmarks have been updated to 3.6 standards,
    New vbseo SHARE Bookmark format

    If these are not filled in, the share feature will not work as there are no social bookmarks to display

    This is done in the vbseoCP -> social bookmarks area. It works on all versions of vb the same.

    ahh you mean click on "add custom"?

    and change this to?

    Code:
    // Un-comment the patterns below (remove '//' at the beginning) to enable desired Bookmarking Services or add your own!
    //http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=%url%,vbseo/resources/images/forum/facebook.gif,Share on Facebook,Facebook
    //http://www.spurl.net/spurl.php?title=%title%&url=%url%,vbseo/resources/images/forum/spurl.gif,Spurl this Thread!,Spurl

    thanks.


    EDIT: ahh ok, i removed "//" and changed the FB URL but dont work mate, what FB URL do i add please?
    do i need to upload the facebook image or something?
    thx


    EDIT AGAIN: all i needed to do was removed the "//", the FB URL was correct URL in the first place, thank you.
    pretty much solved.
    altho it was a lot better when the icons actually displayed in the posts, the old way.

    It was a problematic placement. There simply wasn't enough room to expand. In the pop up, it is literally unlimited in possible sizes to use.
