Facebook Share vs. Tweetmeme – choosing display order

  • This is super annoying.

    I had a great setup for the Facebook Share and Tweetmeme plugins, both of which are awesome.

    My FB Share button was to the left of the Tweeteme button, and since my display preference is different, this looked excellent.

    However, Tweetmeme just got upgraded and somehow the orders reversed (as seen on https://www.techipedia.com ).

    I can’t figure out how to change them back.

    Both of them are apparently fighting over this:
    float: right; margin-left: 10px;

    How do I force FBShare ALWAYS to be shown on the left and take precedence over Tweetmeme, which should be on the right? Is there any way I can do this?

    Thanks!

  • I believe the order has changed due to the new TweetMeme plugin being released. Both the plugins would use a hook onto the WordPress tag the_content(). When the hooks don’t have a priority set they default to 10, then it just comes down to the order they were added to the code. So because you have just updated your TweetMeme plugin, it is being called last which why it is appearing to the left of the content.

    You might be able to solve this by deactivating and reactivating the facebook plugin.

    Thanks dtsn. I should have mentioned that I did that about 5-6 times.

    Not only did I deactivate the plugin, I also totally removed Tweetmeme and Facebook Share from my server entirely and then reuploaded them in the order that they were previously activated — and then I activated them in that order as well.

    I’ve tried pretty much *everything* here. I can’t get it back the way it used to be.

    Any other ideas? ??
