I am unable to use my AddThis or ShareThis account on the Social Sharing button. See image below.

I have pasted my ShareThis code like in the figure, but it still does not work. See image below.

This problem remained unanswered in this thread. Can someone help, please?

Hi,
You replace Share this website module with custom HTML

<div class="share clearfix"><a class="share twitter" href="#" target="_blank" title="Twitter this"> </a> <a class="share facebook" href="#" target="_blank" title="Add to Facebook"> </a> <a class="share flick" href="#" target="_blank" title="Add to Flick"> </a> <a class="share social" href="#" target="_blank" title="Add to Social"> </a> <a class="share youtube" href="#" target="_blank" title="Add to Reddit"> </a> <a class="website" href="#" target="_blank" title="Add to Reddit"><span class="website">Share this website</span></a></div>
with


<div class="share clearfix"><a class="share twitter" href="#" target="_blank" title="Twitter this"> </a> <a class="share facebook" href="#" target="_blank" title="Add to Facebook"> </a> <a class="share flick" href="#" target="_blank" title="Add to Flick"> </a> <a class="share social" href="#" target="_blank" title="Add to Social"> </a> <a class="share youtube" href="#" target="_blank" title="Add to Reddit"> </a> <a class="website" href="javascript::stLight.options(....);" target="_blank" title="Add to Reddit"><span class="website">Share this website</span></a></div>
And you create /templates/ja_travel/blocks/head.php with content is

</script>

<jdoc:include type="head" />

<?php if (T3Common::mobile_device_detect()=='iphone'):?>

<?php endif;?>

<?php if (T3Common::mobile_device_detect()):?>

<?php endif;?>

<link href="<?php echo T3Path::getUrl('images/favicon.ico') ?>" rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" />

<?php JHTML::stylesheet ('', 'templates/system/css/system.css') ?>
<?php JHTML::stylesheet ('', 'templates/system/css/general.css') ?>

Hello Khoand,

Should this works for Joomla 1.5 also?
I tried without success.
Thanks.

Hello All,
I found out a way to implement this in Joomla 1.5.
Here is how to make the ShareThis work:

1- Open and edit plugins/system/jat3/base-themes/default/blocks/head.php
After [PHP]JHTML::stylesheet (”, ‘templates/system/css/general.css’)[/PHP]
Add this code

<script type="text/javascript">var switchTo5x=true;</script><script src="http://w.sharethis.com/button/buttons.js" type="text/javascript"></script><script type="text/javascript">stLight.options({publisher:''});</script>

2- Open templates/ja_travel/css/template.css
Find
a.website
and replace it with
a.website, span.website

3- Now open the custom HTML module which contains the “Share this Website” hmtl code. Replace the code there with the one below changing the service name according to your need.
You may need to set editor to “No editor” for your Joomla user account in order to save this code!

<div class=”share clearfix”>
<span class=”st_facebook_large” displayText=”Facebook”></span>
<span class=”st_twitter_large” displayText=”Tweet”></span>
<span class=”st_google_large” displayText=”Google”></span>
<span class=”st_yahoo_large” displayText=”Yahoo”></span>
<span class=”st_sharethis_custom website”>Share this website</span>
</div>

Since I am using large icons the span classes are “st_xxxxxxx_large”.
With a class like “st_facebook”, “st_tweet” or “st_digg” you’ll get smaller icons.
More about available services and customization here:
http://help.sharethis.com/customization/chicklets

That’s all.
It works for me. Hope for you too.
-Charles
