Hello! The current theme is based on the (kinda out of date by now) Fauna theme, with various plugins added and some minor tweaks.

@Crystal: those icons are showing up because of a DIFFERENT sharing plugin, called “Sociable”.
Delete that one if you don’t want to see the icons anymore.

Now I would say this plugin is just a evil, once you installed it, you can’t normally get rid of it. All my post/page now are infected with this evil, I have physically went into the server and deleted the plugin’s folder, why those icons still appear at the bottom of my post/page? Can anyone help? Pleassssssssssssssssssss.

Hello, I just want to completely remove the Sharethis widget but it seems something is preventing me to do that!!!

Firstly I deactivated the plugin, I still see the it’s icons be tailed on every post; then I went to the directory to delete the whole folder, the weird thing is those icons still appear!!! How come!

Can anyone tell me how to “completely” remove the plugin? Thanks.

For example if open this post then you will see at the bottom of the post there are two icons which used to belong to the ShareThis and should not appear here since I’ve already removed ShareThis.

I checked into the error page problem and fixed it. The bug is shared by all versions of ShareThis Classic -- the plugin uses "wp_die()" as a way to return a status message to the user. It's not intended to be used that way, but I also didn't want to rewrite big chunks of the plugin to fix the bug. Fortunately, wp_die() takes an optional "title" parameter, so it was a simple fix. I also fixed a bug I noticed in the current release of ShareThis Classic (a typo breaks the link back to the post). To fix the bugs (this change is also added to the post above): Search the plugin for this text: wp_die(__('Thanks Then replace that line of code with this:

wp_die(__('Thanks, we\'ve sent this article to your recipients via e-mail.', 'share-this').' '.__('Return to original page', 'share-this').'.', 'Article shared successfully!');

Cheers, Rob

I had similar experience, the customized plugin worked fine except the error page.
I changed to iBegin Share, but it has problems with character encoding, so I would get back to Rob’s nice customized Share plugin, if there is a fix for that error message problem.

Hi, I have customized and used this plugin and working well. Thanks!

After a mail is sent, the page gets forwarded to an error page! Its the same way happening in your site also. See the title of the page.

Can you please share the idea to fix that?
