elmsblog, I haven’t come across anything similar.

Alex, I can usually figure out what’s wrong with what I’m doing or what might be different about my setup that would cause something not to work as designed. But I wasn’t successful in doing that with Since Last Visit. When it’s installed and activated, a header full of script is displayed in the browser window above the actual sight.

This happened with both my old theme (custom designed) and the one I switched to last week.

Link Harvest shouldn’t require it, but maybe change an option (any one, doesn’t matter) and then press the Update Link Harvest Settings button. If you need to change the setting back after doing that you can. This may jump start the process.

I can’t promise that will work, but give it a shot.

Here’s a suggestion that worked for me. I made a slight hack to the way I implement Share This.

In v1.2, I wanted to place the calls in specific places, so I followed the instructions in README to change the default action from automatically placing the calls. Then I placed the calls where I wanted them. The only problem was that this method didn’t validate. The default method did. Both methods worked as designed.

I then changed my theme and it didn’t like Share This at all. In v1.3, Alex has included the ability for Share This to work with your RSS feeds, on mobile devices, and on machines where java is disabled. It does this by opening a new page rather than the pop up form.

Instead of using the calls as outlined in the README, place this link where you want the Share This link inside the loop.
<a href="<?php bloginfo('siteurl'); ?>/?p=<?php print($post->ID); ?>&amp;akst_action=share-this" title="Share This" target="_blank">Share This</a>

Hmm. That’s odd. Are you sure you have it installed in the correct place? Share This gets its own folder in your plugins folder, plus the prototype.js file in your wp-includes/js/ folder. If all of that is correct, I can’t imagine why it doesn’t show up.

It works perfectly fine for me, except for the fact that it doesn’t validate.

Share This 1.2 does not validate when manually placing the PHP tags. The errors center around multiple uses of IDs which, of course, can only be used once.

Is it something I’m doing wrong?

It does validate using the default placement, but I can’t get it to work (just kicks me to the top of the page) and I don’t want to be placed there anyway.
