# Sharing Buttons Showing up on Every Element after Updating to 3.7

 * After updating from Jetpack 3.6.1 to 3.7, the sharing buttons went from being
   displayed in one place on the homepage (under the main page content) to about
   100 different places on one of our client sites.
 * These were the only two Sharing options enabled:
 * – Front Page, Archive Page, and Search Results
    – Pages
 * Unchecking Front Page, Archive Page, and Search Results removed the million sharing
   buttons, but it also removed them entirely from the homepage—even though I went
   into that page’s editor and specifically enabled the sharing buttons in the hopes
   that doing so would resolve the issue.
 * Apparently, the featured sections (Services), Portfolio images, and Gallery items
   are now being recognized as individual Archive Page (or Search Results?) items,
   whereas that did not occur in past versions of Jetpack.
 * Reverting to the previous version of Jetpack resolved the issue, but obviously
   that is not a desirable solution.
 * We’re on WP 4.3.1, and all of our plugins are at the latest version. The theme
   is Impero (YIThemes: [https://yithemes.com/themes/wordpress/impero-minimalistic-wordpress-theme/](https://yithemes.com/themes/wordpress/impero-minimalistic-wordpress-theme/)).
 * I don’t want to publish the client’s website but can share more details in private
   if desired.
 * Thank you!
 * Melissa 🙂

 * P.S. As a feature request, it would be really nice to disentangle those three
   options so we have the ability to individually select each one:
 * – Front Page
    – Archive Page – Search Results
 * That would certainly solve this issue and would enable me to select the Front
   Page (which I always want) without enabling the Archive Page and Search Results(
   which I never want).
 * Thank you!

 * We’ve indeed changed that behaviour in Jetpack 3.7. You can learn more about 
   the change here:
    [https://github.com/Automattic/jetpack/pull/2450](https://github.com/Automattic/jetpack/pull/2450)
 * Your only option right now is indeed to revert the changes on your installation.
 * I took note of your suggestion, though, so we can split those 3 options as you
   suggested. You can follow our progress, and chime in, here:

 * Thank you for the clarification on the behavior change and especially for your
   willingness to implement my feature request! I am excited to follow the progress
   and hope to see it soon so I can upgrade Jetpack 🙂
 * Milles gracies,
