Is this a paid feature to change the button text? Several people have asked me recently when they share via my blog why it doesn't also include my handle - I'm fine with it saying both "via @grmeyer and @wordpressdotcom" but don't understand why my handle isn't included.

Thanks!

Thank you for your responses.

The LIKE box seems to have gotten ok now. But the tweet button was working fine. I have no idea why it has suddenly..only the last 2 posts...stopped using my twitter handle. I'm perfectly connected to the sharing options.
I will still check out the links you mentioned..but really..I cant wrap my head around, why it was working just fine..and suddenly stopped.

Secondly, the bloggers LIKE bar isnt showing the full gravatars in my theme. This is also a recent thing. It used to be fine a while back.

I see them here and they appear fine to me using Firefox 13 http://positiveprovocations.com/2012/06/05/how-i-happily-and-positively-redefined-success/ Is that where you mean?

Try logging out and then logging in again using the https:// login (in the event you aren't already using it) http://en.support.wordpress.com/https/

When you do that try using the browser with all extensions or add-ons disabled and see if anything changes when you view the gravatars.

Which browser and version of it are you using? Click here to find out > http://whatsmyuseragent.com/

I am having the same problem you have stated above and I can't seem to lose the "via @wordpressdotcom" and have my handle included. I just looked at your blog and it seems like you have figured out a way to have readers share via Twitter with your handle. Could you share how you fixed that?
Thanks a lot!

However, beware - I did this and now every single edit I make to a blog is automatically shared on all my social media site. See my question: How to stop auto updates to social media for every single blog edit.

I followed instructions found through the following link, but doesn't seem to be working for me. http://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/. Instructions state:

"The Twitter sharing button is using “via @wordpressdotcom” but I want it to use my Twitter username.
To have your Twitter sharing button use your Twitter username you need to set up the Publicize feature."

Thanks!

Whenever people try tweet one of my posts it says via @wordpressdotcom instead of my twitter name. This problem started after I bought my own domain name on wordpress. I've already updated the publicize feature and connected with my twitter account.

Am I missing a step somewhere??
