  Hey Bloggers!!

  I just started to use WordPress and I am new to blogging anyway. For some reason my site is not showing the “share” buttons that I enabled using “My Dashboard”. I went to dashboard>settings>sharing settings and enabled Facebook and Twitter in addition to e-mail, print, and Google+1. The only buttons that I can see from my site are e-mail, print, and Google+1. I selected all of the “Show on” boxes under sharing settings. Whay are the buttons not showing? How can I fix it?

  Thanks for your help!!

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

  I visited your blog. Please click on the title to any post and the post will open on it’s own page. At the bottom of the post I see your sharing buttons.

  I can’t see the buttons on the front page. Make sure to select “Posts and index pages” for “Show sharing buttons on” setting. http://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/#troubleshooting

  HELP!!

  Suddenly I can no longer see the “share” buttons!! Is it because I don’t have the updated Internet explorer? They are all supposed to be there!!

  I’m on Windows XP and that means I cannot update IE from IE8 to IE9 but I could care less as I use a reliable browser. I can see your sharing buttons using Firefox 10.0.2. That points to you having a browser issue.

  Do you have another browser you can try?

  I can see the facebook like button there and other sharing buttons under “more”. This is probably your browser issue. Clear your caches and cookies and see it.
