  Hi there! I have a “share on twitter” button at the end of each post only it doesn’t show the number of times people have tweeted my post. I know it has in the past but suddenly doesn’t. Can you help?

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

  Hello all –

  This was a decision by Twitter to remove the share count on the “Share on Twitter” buttons –

  https://blog.twitter.com/2015/hard-decisions-for-a-sustainable-platform

  It went into effect on Friday:

  From that link from Twitter:

  Update Nov. 20, 2015: As described above, we have now shipped the updated Tweet Button and removed the Tweet count endpoint. We appreciate your feedback over the past 60 days on how you have used these counts, and look forward to incorporating it as we create and improve tools to integrate Twitter content into your apps and websites.

  What a bad decision! There go our twitter hubs and another measurement tool gone!
