bug: HoverBar Shows on pages and posts

Hello,
The options “Automatically add ShareThis to your pages/pages?” control the behaviour of buttons across posts and pages and not the other tools (Like Hoverbar / ShareNow).

If you wish to have Hoverbar only on posts, you can disable Hoverbar from plug-in & copy the Code for Hoverbar from https://sharethis.com/publishers/get-sharing-tools (select “Website” at “Step 1” and you should see Hoverbar at “Step 2” under “Bars”) and place the ‘script tags’ in your Main index template(index.php) and ‘span tags ‘ in Single Post template(single.php) to achieve this.

Hope this is helpful. Contact us is case you face any issues while implementing Hoverbar on your blog.

is there a workaround for this to load only the “script tags” in the single.php ?

I think from a quick test I did, it worked fine if I load this code only on single.php

<script charset="utf-8" type="text/javascript">var switchTo5x=true;</script><script charset="utf-8" type="text/javascript" src="https://w.sharethis.com/button/buttons.js"></script><script type="text/javascript">stLight.options({publisher:"wp.356c2fb3-3132-4861-ab64-0a4d042a31b0"});</script><script charset="utf-8" type="text/javascript" src="https://s.sharethis.com/loader.js"></script><script charset="utf-8" type="text/javascript">var options={ publisher:"wp.356c2fb3-3132-4861-ab64-0a4d042a31b0", "position": "left", "chicklets": { "items": ["facebook","twitter","linkedin","email","pinterest"] } }; var st_hover_widget = new sharethis.widgets.hoverbuttons(options);</script>

I am very picky about loading times and scripts I use!

thanks

Hello Maraki,

There is no work around for the script tags as it is necessary to put the script tags in the index.php template only.

Please let us know if you have any other queries.
