== Frequently Asked Questions ==
= Where are the options? =
In your Admin panel, go to `Settings` > `AddToAny`. Among other options, you can choose a universal sharing button, individual sharing icons, and official sharing buttons (Facebook Like Button, Twitter Tweet Button, Google+ Share Button, Google +1 Button) to display, and where and how to display them.
To place the buttons as a "widget" in your theme (if your theme supports WordPress Widgets), go to `Appearance` > `Widgets`, then drag AddToAny to an available Widget Area and click `Save`.
= Why isn't the drop-down menu appearing? =
It's likely because your theme wasn't coded properly. With many themes you can use the Theme Editor to edit your theme's `header.php` and `footer.php` files.
In `header.php` place the following line of code just before the `` line:
``
In `footer.php` place the following line of code just before the `` line:
``
= How can I add both the universal button and the individual icons to another area of my theme? =
In the Theme Editor, place this code block where you want the button and individual icons to appear in your theme:
``
If you want to customize the shared URL and title for the universal button and standalone services, use the following code as a template:
` "Example Page", "linkurl" => "http://example.com/page.html") );
} ?>`
If you want to share the current URL and title (detected on the client-side), use the following code:
` TRUE) );
} ?>`
If you want to hardcode the shared current URL and modify the title (server-side), use the following code as a template:
` (is_home() ? get_bloginfo('description') : wp_title('', FALSE)), "linkurl" => (is_ssl() ? 'https://' : 'http://') . $_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"] . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']) );
} ?>`
= How can I add just the universal button to another area of my theme? =
In the Theme Editor, you will place this line of code where you want the button to appear in your theme:
``
If you want to customize the shared URL and title for this button, use the following code as a template:
` "Example Page", "linkurl" => "http://example.com/page.html") );
} ?>`
= How can I add just the individual icons to another area of my theme? =
In the Theme Editor, place this line of code where you want the individual icons to appear in your theme (within an HTML list):
`';
if( function_exists('ADDTOANY_SHARE_SAVE_ICONS') ) { ADDTOANY_SHARE_SAVE_ICONS(); }
echo ''; ?>`
If you want to customize the shared URL and title for these icons, use the following code as a template:
`';
ADDTOANY_SHARE_SAVE_ICONS( array(
"linkname" => "Example Page", "linkurl" => "http://example.com/page.html"
));
echo '';
} ?>`
Or you can place the icons as individual links without styling:
``
If you want to customize the shared URL and title for these icons, use the following code as a template:
` "Example Page", "linkurl" => "http://example.com/page.html") );
} ?>`
= How can I add a new custom standalone service? =
You can create a plugin or customize the following PHP sample code to add to your theme's function.php file:
`function addtoany_add_services( $services ) {
$services['google_example'] = array(
'name' => 'Google Example',
'icon_url' => 'http://www.google.com/favicon.ico',
'icon_width' => 16,
'icon_height' => 16,
'href' => 'http://www.example.com/add?linkurl=A2A_LINKURL&linkname=A2A_LINKNAME'
);
return $services;
}
add_filter('A2A_SHARE_SAVE_services', 'addtoany_add_services', 10, 1);`
= How can I align the universal button and/or icons to the center or to the right side of posts? =
It depends on your theme, but you can try adding the following CSS code to your main stylesheet.
To align right:
`.addtoany_share_save_container { text-align:right; }`
To align center:
`.addtoany_share_save_container { text-align:center; }`
= How can I remove the button(s) from individual posts and pages? =

= How can I force the button(s) to appear in individual posts and pages? =
If your button isn't already set up to appear (it is by default), insert the following tag into the page or post (HTML tab) that you want the button to appear in: ``
= Why doesn't Facebook use the page title and how can I set the image Facebook uses? =
Facebook does link sharing a little differently than most other services. Facebook expects the Title, Description, and Thumbnail of a shared page to be defined in the actual HTML code of a shared page. Unlike other services, Facebook does not accept the values you have set for your sharing widget. To change the title, description or image on Facebook, you will need to modify your theme.
