Hello,
i'm trying to use addthis as default share provider but it doesn't seem to be working. Even the tutorial that you provide seems a bit different because on the addthis dashboard you get the js code + a div class that must be added and Easyblog asks only for the publisher code so it will load js.

Can this somehow be fixed?

Thank you
Hey Chaon,

I found the code you are referring to. It appears that the class is different if you have a few buttons created(attached).

May I know which button you plan to use from your dashboard? If you are not using the first button, you will have to template override the following file to change the button's class.
JoomlaFolder/components/com_easyblog/themes/wireframe/socialbuttons/addthis.php

Hi Chaon,

AddThis integration seems to be working fine for me(attached1).

You can refer to my second attached screenshot on how I get the code to paste into EB settings.

Thank you for the quick reply Raymond but EB load this div


<div class="addthis_inline_share_toolbox"

While according to Addthis dashboard it needs to load this


<div class="addthis_inline_share_toolbox_l9kz"></div>

Hey Chaon,

I don't see this on my addthis dashboard. Can you provide us a screenshot?

Is addthis loading for you on your front-end?

Thank you very much this was my case and editing this file fixed my issue.
One more thing related to addthis, is there a way to add the async="async" on the javascript code as it is suggested here:

You're most welcome Chaon.

There's no way to add this unless you modify core files.
