Hello,

This is a great extension you created! I really like it. But I’m facing a weird issue on my blog.

I activated the floating bar on the left. And it appears in the middle of the body text for… IE 9 and Firefox 14. But everything is fine with Chrome and Safari.

Here is the bug under IE and Firefox:

I tried several settings but the bug still appears.

Is it related to the theme I’m using, or is it a WP Socializer bug?

Thanks for your help,

Rémi

Hi again,

I found a workaroud.

I modified the javascript file “wp-socializer-floating-bar-js” in /wp-content/plugins/wp-socializer/public/js, line 22

I replaced: left: (anchorOffset.left – $floatbar.outerWidth() – 25)

by: left: window.left

So now, in all browsers, the left floating share bar is fixed on the left of the window. It’s not very nice, especially for large wide screens, but it’s much better than having it in the middle of the text.

Aakash, if you find a final corrective, I would really appreciate!

So as the image says, change the number “25” to some larger value and it will work great.

It is assumed that the paragraph starts closer to the border, so the floating bar sticks to the starting paragraph.

Change the number and you are done.

Thanks for your reply Aakash.

I had a try with the tip you mention. And actually, if I increase that number (for instance 200 pixels) until the bar goes out of the text, it will work… for IE and Firefox only.

But for Chrome and Safari, these extra 200 pixels will make the bar move too far from the text.

So It is not a good solution…

Sorry, I didn’t see that URL. I think there is no good way to control the position of the floatbar. Take an average value which seems to look good in all the browsers. Thank you.
