  Share buttons don’t appear on splash page of blog even when my settings check to have Share buttons on posts and pages. How can someone who lands on the splash page also share the post?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there!

  We don’t show share buttons on pages that display more than one post. Share buttons are only available from Pages and single post pages.

  Sorry I can’t be more help!

  What would the best way be to allow each blog post to be shareable?

  Hello!

  The sharing buttons on your single posts pages are the best way to make your posts shareable.

  It also helps to connect your social media account and automatically sharing your posts when you publish them. These links will direct back to the single posts pages, where the sharing links are available.

  If you manually share your posts, make sure that you’re grabbing the link to a single post rather than your entire site. For example share this link:

  http://vinyldaydreams.wordpress.com/2014/07/22/blondie-parallel-lines-1978/

  Instead of this link:

  http://vinyldaydreams.wordpress.com/

  Let me know if you have any other questions!
