Sharing Settings not working!

    Hey Bloggers!!

    I just started to use WordPress and I am new to blogging anyway. For some reason my site is not showing the "share" buttons that I enabled using "My Dashboard". I went to dashboard>settings>sharing settings and enabled Facebook and Twitter in addition to e-mail, print, and Google+1. The only buttons that I can see from my site are e-mail, print, and Google+1. I selected all of the "Show on" boxes under sharing settings. Whay are the buttons not showing? How can I fix it?

    Thanks for your help!!

    The blog I need help with is ratliffvfd.wordpress.com.

    I visited your blog. Please click on the title to any post and the post will open on it's own page. At the bottom of the post I see your sharing buttons.

    I can’t see the buttons on the front page. Make sure to select “Posts and index pages” for “Show sharing buttons on” setting. http://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/#troubleshooting

    HELP!!

    Suddenly I can no longer see the "share" buttons!! Is it because I don't have the updated Internet explorer? They are all supposed to be there!!

    I'm on Windows XP and that means I cannot update IE from IE8 to IE9 but I could care less as I use a reliable browser. I can see your sharing buttons using Firefox 10.0.2. That points to you having a browser issue.

    Do you have another browser you can try?

    I can see the facebook like button there and other sharing buttons under "more". This is probably your browser issue. Clear your caches and cookies and see it.
