Hi!

I noticed something more in the theme. Could it be possible to add more sharing buttons? I mean, LinkedIn, Reddit, Tumblr, maybe Pocket and Pinterest too.

And, another thing. I don't know how to add more buttons at the footer. I tried, but I couldn't. Could you explain this, please?

I try to help you with the Wiki about all that stuff, so people go there and see the information :)

Thank you for your attention!

@adolphenom Yes, more sharing buttons can be added. The icon font only has icons for the social media channels currently in use; so unless you add matching icons, you’ll be stuck with the images that the buttons come with. I’m planning to re-arrange where the sharing buttons are located in the next update, as there isn’t much room for them at the moment. What specific ones would you need?

(I read a few articles about sharing buttons, and I’ll probably remove them from my blog …)

Regarding links in the footer: on line ~38 of default.hbs you’ll find {{!>navigation-links}}. To activate footer links, replace that line with {{>navigation-links}}. Then, edit partials/navigation-links.hbs with whatever links you want (by default it’s home/about/contact)

Have I answered your questions?

Am... LoL dude! Well, I think you can make a .hbs file with share buttons
and (dis)comment whenever you need them (like footer's links, for example).
Also I don't like them so much, but if there's the posibility to do that,
maybe other people will be thankful :)

About the second part, no, sorry, it doesn't. What I mean is that:

buttons there, at left or right of the RSS' button. I tried, but I didn't
get good results :(

Does this answer your questions?

Unfortunatly, the RSS button has a lot of specific positioning to get it in the right place, so it’s not easy to add more buttons along side it. (If you want to get into the CSS, you could make a duplicate of the RSS button, and then add another class and position it next to the RSS button, but the theme’s not set up to be able to have multiple buttons there.)

I’m working on some big upgrades for the theme, and the share and RSS buttons are going to be re-arranged when I do that, so I’ll put them in a partial and try to make it easier to add other sharing channels.

(Alternately, there’s SumoMe’s sharing widget, which is easy to add to a site and appearently works well; you could add it to your blog to get more sharing options while I work on the theme: http://sumome.com/app/share)

I'm going to wait for what you said and see the new changes you're going to
make.

You can close this issue. Thank you for replying me :-).
