I had this problem before and got it fixed by you guys, but now it's come back. The width provided to the social share buttons is not enough to display them next to each other in one row. Instead they are displayed on top of each which does not only look funny, it also takes up too much room on the screen.

Hello,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here. They are actually serving a different purpose altogether. The first one is pretty similar to likes in Facebook but it's from Google+ while the other is sharing.

I think the problem is that the area just below the first post of the 'discussion', above the replies, is split up between the social buttons on the left and a list of round avatars of the site members currently viewing the forum/discussion page on the right.

What would be better if the two areas were on top of each other rather than next to each other.

Edit the file /components/com_easydiscuss/themes/flatt/post.question.item.php and locate the codes below,


<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span6">
<strong><?php echo JText::_( 'COM_EASYDISCUSS_SHARE_THIS_POST' ); ?>:</strong> <?php echo DiscussHelper::showSocialButtons( $post, 'horizontal' ); ?>
</div>
<div class="span6">
<?php echo DiscussHelper::getWhosOnline();?>
</div>
</div>


Replace it with,


<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span12">
<strong><?php echo JText::_( 'COM_EASYDISCUSS_SHARE_THIS_POST' ); ?>:</strong> <?php echo DiscussHelper::showSocialButtons( $post, 'horizontal' ); ?>
</div>
</div>

Much better!!! thank you so much, especially so late on a Saturday. Just one minor (cosmetic) problem.

There are two icons for Google Plus and the second icon even has an unnecessary text label next to it.
