    Sorry for my bad english. I developed a theme, almost 50% with bootstrap and when i want to display jetpack’s sharing buttons it’s doesn’t appear properly at the bottom of my content on single page, like the image below.

    Sharing buttons

    I tried with Twenty Sixteen theme and it work but with my theme it’s doesn’t work. What i’m missing?

  • Without seeing the theme in action, it’s hard to say. If your site is not loading the buttons, it could be that your theme is somehow blocking JetPack’s css.

    Try pressing F12 and then clicking on “Console”. Do any error messages appear? If so, which ones?

    The console doesn’t show any error. I think the same, something is blocking jetpack’s css but i don’t know what it is. I tried disable bootstrap’s css but it still not working. I don’t know how debug to find the problem D:

    Would be interested to know the solution. Thanks in advance.

    I found what the problem is. For some reason my theme is not load Jetpack’s CSS. So, what i did was copy jetpack.css from jetpack CSS folder to my theme folder and load from there. Now look like this:
    sharing buttons
    sharing buttons color

    Obviously the icons doesn’t show up because it’s not loading icon’s css too. What am i missing here? Why are not loading the CSS styles from Jetpack? ??

    Okey guys, i resolved the problem. It’s happen to newbie wordpress’s developers like me haha. Apparently if you don’t put wp_head() just before the closing </head> tag of your theme, you will break many plugins. Plugins use this hook to add elements to <head> such as styles, scripts, and meta tags. Thank you for help me. ??

    That explains a lot. (You shouldn’t have to copy plugin css to your theme.) I’ve made that mistake myself. Glad you got it sorted, and thanks for coming back and posting the solution!
