  I have added the Twitter and Facebook buttons (under Settings->Sharing) to the Enabled Services area, along with Press This and Google+1. I saved the changes. However, only the Press This button appears.

  I have Publicize enabled for Twitter and Facebook. Twitter is not working. Facebook appears to be.

  I’m using Skeptical theme.

  thanks.

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

  Thanks. Great instructions above. I’m using AVG and it was blocking Facebook and Twitter. I deselected those and the buttons show up.
