In reply to: [Lazy Social Buttons] not proper funcionalI just tried it on my site, and it works fine. The FB box opens up normal size and worked just fine. Any additional information you can give me so I can try to figure out what’s wrong? What browser and browser version are you using?

In reply to: [Lazy Social Buttons] Stuck at loading stage in Google ChromeI haven’t noticed this problem. Works fine for me in Chrome. Have you tried rebooting Chrome? What version of Chrome are you using? I’m using 23.0.1271.91 at the moment. What operating system are you using? I’m using Windows 7 at the moment.
If you open Chrome’s Tools, Developer Tools and launch the Console, then reload the page and mouseover the buttons, what JS errors occur?
Thank you, I know, very irritating. It also causes problems on the front end and conflicts with other plugins and themes. As a quick fix, I made the CDN loaded jquery an option and default it to Off. Also added a note in the FAQ “Why should or shouldn’t I use the jquery CDN options?”. That’s all I can do for now. When I get time to work on this plugin again, I’ll look into resolving this bug.

In reply to: [Lazy Social Buttons] Add LinkedInThis is a pending request. I don’t have an ETA at the moment. I’m pushing for it to be added to https://github.com/godaddy/lazy-social-buttons so I can wrap it into this plugin, which is really just a wrapper for this code.
Sorry all, I added v1.0.6 to satisfy a feature request that came in on the inside.godaddy.com article, which requested that lazy social buttons be added to the_excerpt. It also suggested it be an option. I wrongfully implemented it without making it an option. I didn’t realize it would cause a problem.
To remedy the situation fast, I published version 1.0.7 today, making the_excerpt an option, and defaulted to manual (or off). This way, for those of you that have plugins or themes or CPTs that use the_excerpt and/or you don’t want lazy social buttons on the_excerpt, you can toggle it to manual. In fact, I made “Manual” (or “off”) the default, so you don’t have to do anything but upgrade to v1.0.7.
This is a really good suggestion: “Perhaps it would be useful for option to be added to select which CPTs will display the buttons and/or whether excerpts (or excerpts within widgets) will display the buttons”. I’ll take this into consideration. I wanted to get v1.0.7 out fast to stop the bleeding first.
Oh, and check out https://github.com/godaddy/lazy-social-buttons for a full list of the text decoration options.
If you want to add buttons to your template, say to make the buttons show up in your header, you can simply add the marked up DIV tag where you want it to go. For example:
<div class="lazysocialbuttons" data-float="left" data-buttons="google,twitter,facebook" data-twshareurl="http://www.yourdomain.tld/" data-twtext="Check out my site" data-shareurl="http://www.yourdomain.tld/" data-fbhideflyout="false" data-backgroundtype="light"></div>I’m going to publish v1.0.5 today that will add a feature for position=manual. This will allow you to add the buttons with the text decoration method in your theme where you want them to go.
@DonlachaiT – Making the buttons only appear on the homepage is not a feature of the plugin today. Do you want them to appear on every post on the home page, or just once for the main URL of the site?
