Google+ Count missing from Sharrre


I setup a basic Javascript app on IIS7 about a month back. I made use of the Sharrre jquery plugin to add some social media buttons to it.

For a couple of months they looked as expected:

However, I have noticed that over the last couple of weeks, it does not appear correctly, regardless of browser and an empty cache:

I have not made any changes to the code, so looking for some advice to whats causing this?

All I can think of is that perhaps because theres more people sharing it, the number has caused the balloon to somehow move somewhere else or vanish? I cant see any related errors in Firebug and I do not believe IIS has been fiddled with at the server end.


Solution

  • Inside your map.js file can you try updating the sharrre initialization code to what's below?

    $('#shareme').sharrre({
      share: {
        googlePlus: true,
        facebook: true,
        twitter: true,
      },
      buttons: {
        googlePlus: {size: 'tall', annotation:'bubble'},
        facebook: {layout: 'box_count'},
        twitter: {count: 'vertical'},
      },
      enableHover: false,
      enableCounter: false,
      enableTracking: true
    });
    

    (adding in "annotation:'bubble'" for googlePlus)
