In reply to: [Crafty Social Buttons] ShortCode ParametersIt’s not working right now because that feature is currently in testing and isn’t in the current version of the plugin that is in the WordPress plugin repository.
If you’d like to be able to use this immediately, you can download the version of the plugin that is on the plugin website: http://sarahhenderson.github.io/Crafty-Social-Buttons/.
Or, if you wait for about 24 hours, I should have this version in the repository by then.

In reply to: [Crafty Social Buttons] page like button on left side floatingSorry for the delay in replying. Things have been extremely busy for me lately.
Were you able to sort out the issues with the caching then?
The only thing I can now see wrong in that code sample is that there is an extra curly brace before the.crafty-social-share-buttonsstyle rule, and none after it.Good luck.

In reply to: [Crafty Social Buttons] page like button on left side floatingI’m afraid I don’t really know very much about WP Super Cache or any other caching plugins. But there’s no way to override the styles unless you are able to make changes to the stylesheet and then have those changes appear on the site.

In reply to: [Crafty Social Buttons] page like button on left side floatingPerhaps try flushing the cache again?
The CSS that is currently being served by your site (probably from the cache version) still has a line of PHP code in it.
/* visual composer hack - overwrite the theme display block @since 18/6/2015 */ .wpb_single_image .vc_single_image-wrapper { display: inline-block !important; } } div.crafty-social-buttons ul li { display: block } .crafty-social-buttons.crafty-social-share-buttons { top: 30px; } .ui-tabs .ui-tabs-panel { margin-right: 30px; } <?php if(function_exists('pf_show_link')){echo pf_show_link();} ?> div.crafty-social-share-buttons.crafty-social-buttons-floating { position: absolute;You can see it here at the bottom of the file:
http://www.hadithonlinebd.com/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/style.css?ver=6.6Also, in that code you posted, it looks like there is an extra closing curly brace just before the last rule. (i.e. two lines in a row with })

In reply to: [Crafty Social Buttons] page like button on left side floatingIt is the style.css file in your theme. Look at the end of the file where you pasted the style override.

In reply to: [Crafty Social Buttons] page like button on left side floatingIf you have a look in your style.css file, you will see right at the end that there is a line of PHP code just before your style override.
This is a direct link to your CSS file:
http://www.hadithonlinebd.com/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/style.css?ver=6.6This is the line of PHP code:
<?php if(function_exists('pf_show_link')){echo pf_show_link();} ?>You’ll have to remove this – it isn’t valid in a CSS file, and is probably why the style after it is being ignored.

In reply to: [Crafty Social Buttons] page like button on left side floatingI’m not entirely sure exactly where you want it to float, so I need to know that first.
Changing the position:fixed to position: absolute will make it float inside the tab panel next to the content, like this:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ab1ahjdxdix9c5t/Screenshot%20from%202016-04-12%2020%3A26%3A57.png?dl=0
Is that what you are trying to do?
If yes, what you need is:
- set the floating option in settings menu
- leave the other style overrides in place
- add the rule I last gave that sets the floating buttons to absolute rather than fixed
- clear your cache
If not, then I need to know exactly where you want the buttons.
Cheers

In reply to: [Crafty Social Buttons] page like button on left side floatingCurrently, when you set the buttons to floating, they will use a position: fixed rule to be fixed to either the left or right side of the screen.
If you add this override to the end of your theme:
div.crafty-social-share-buttons.crafty-social-buttons-floating { position: absolute; }This tells them that instead of floating within the whole window, they should just float inside their container. In your case, this should make them float within the tab panel. You can change the float to either right or left and choose the height in the plugin options setting. If you want to be more specific about exactly where they are positioned, you can add further override styles.

In reply to: [Crafty Social Buttons] page like button on left side floatingFor floating things inside the tab, you can modify the style override you added before to position the tabs wherever you like.
So, for your page, if you add the following rules to the end of your theme’s style.css file (after the styles you added before):
div.crafty-social-buttons ul li { display: block } .crafty-social-buttons.crafty-social-share-buttons { top: 30px; } .ui-tabs .ui-tabs-panel { margin-right: 30px; }You can change the top value to make it float at any height you want. If you want them to float at the bottom, you can modify the previous style to this:
.crafty-social-buttons.crafty-social-share-buttons { top: auto; bottom: 5px; }As for the like button, I do plan to see if I can integrate one into this plugin in the future, but it’s probably not something I’m going to be able to do in the next month or so due to other work commitments.
I’m sure there are other plugins out there with a like button, and I’m pretty sure that all of them can be positioned exactly where you want them with the right CSS overrides.

In reply to: [Crafty Social Buttons] Whats app button only sharing the link not videoThis plugin is just designed to share a page/post url. It is designed to work within the WordPress framework, meaning it know about posts and pages. But it doesn’t know anything at all about the content of your page or whether it has images or video.
Facebook scans each page someone shares and extracts images and videos and displays them according to rules of its own. Most of the others just display the url.
There are probably other plugins out there that are designed specifically to share video or images, so they might suit your purposes. Or if you want something very custom, you could have it built into your theme so that it is aware of your specific content.

In reply to: [Crafty Social Buttons] Link Buttons Side ArrowsIt sounds like your theme is automatically adding these styles to the buttons, mistaking them for pagination.
It should be quite easy to add an extra style or two to your theme to override this and turn it off on the sharing buttons.
If you give me your site URL, I can probably look at it and give you the exact css override you need.

In reply to: [Crafty Social Buttons] page like button on left side floatingYou can make it do pretty much anything you want – it’s completely configurable with CSS.
While the plugin does come with some default styles that work for most blogs, it was also designed to be completely overridable in your theme CSS.
Once you have your page layout complete, it’s just a matter of figuring out the appropriate style overrides to add to your theme. But it’s probably best to be sure that your page layout and theme are finalised first.
And thank you for the thought regarding the cup of coffee! But as yours is also a free service, if you receive any donations, you should put them towards your site.

In reply to: [Crafty Social Buttons] page like button on left side floatingYes, there is a floating option. On the settings page, there is an option to make the buttons float, and to choose whether they will float to the left or the right.
It might make the buttons inside the tabs float also. If that happens, I think it can be fixed with some extra CSS styles.

In reply to: [Crafty Social Buttons] social button on tabbed contentHave you refreshed the cache?
This is a direct link to the CSS file: http://hadithonlinebd.com/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/style.css?ver=6.6
I don’t see the code at the bottom of the file.
I see you are using WP-Super-Cache so maybe it is still showing the old file?
Cheers,
SarahForum: Plugins
In reply to: [Crafty Social Buttons] social button on tabbed contentYes, you still paste it in style.css.
Most plugins (including crafty social buttons, and squelch tabs) include some styles with the plugin.
But you can always use your theme to change the plugin style by adding extra code to style.css. Usually, anything you add to the end of style.css will override everything else.
