Question about content sharing tool

[rpacker 19]

I have the content sharing tool applied to both post pages and single pages, but it is not showing up under every post on the main blog page. I believe I was able to do this with Station Pro, but not Platform Pro. Am I missing something in the settings?

I believe that the only way the sharebar will show on the home page is if you have the home page set to show full posts, however I could be wrong, it may not show at all. An alternative, you can download another social sharing plugin from http://www.wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ and have it show on the home page. Keep in mind that having a sharebar on the home page will make the page appear much more busy and cluttered. And finally, I'm sure this can be done with some custom PHP programming. If that is out of your realm, feel free to contact one of our Pros at http://www.pagelines.com/pros/.

I'm trying to stick to the Platform content sharing tool because I like the message that goes with it..., but you're probably right about the clutter, it's just that since I show the full post on the blog page, most people never get to the individual post page where the share icon is located. Oh well...

Don't count out showing post excerpts. They actually look quite nice with the image. Plus you get more pageviews when your reader has to click to read more. :)

That's true. I should give that a try. Thanks!
