Hello,

I am having trouble with the main twitter share button on the post pages. Pic below

When I test the twitter share link on the post pages, which is located both above and below the post, it opens in the same window tab and not in a popup like the demo shows.

It also has 2 @ symbols in the twitter share window. Pic below

I do not have the have the tagDiv Social Counter activated and have checked the Yoast SEO settings and the theme panel Social Networks settings to make sure the twitter account @ symbol is not included.

Please advise.

Thank You

Hi,
Please try to deactivate all your plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files. This could be a plugin conflict.
Let us know how it goes.
Thank you

Hi,

OK I just disabled ALL plugins except visual composer, cleared my cache, and the same thing is still happening. I am not using a cdn.

Thanks

Hi,
I have checked into this issue and there seems to be a problem with the sharing options. If these options are disabled: http://screencast.com/t/yaIP4G2v, then the tweet will break like it does on your site. Please enable the like/tweet buttons. It’s enough to have just one of them top or bottom and the tweet will work properly. We are working on fixing this in a future version of the theme.
Sorry fort the inconvenience.
Thank you!

I have the same issue. However, you should work on a fix rather than telling us to activate those like and tweet options, please.

I quote myself from above:

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Here is a simple solution. Activate the article top like/share and then hide it with css
.td-classic-sharing{
display:none!important;
}

Now the classic sharing option will not be available and the tweeter button will work as expected.
Thanks.

Hi,

Thank you for the response, that was indeed it. I hope to see a fix for this as well as enabling this also means more scripts will be loaded from facebook and twitter ect. In the meantime I will use your above suggestion.

One other question on a different topic, where would I add the code for a social network login plugin so it shows in theme’s pop-up login form?

Thank You

Hi,
The theme pop-up login is created here: http://screencast.com/t/2Qj0tGAcDD
Thank you!
