Latest update tried like button, now lost sharing on home page

Hi Rob,

Can you check to make sure that you have “Front page” checked off on the Settings -> Sharing page, where it says “Show Buttons on”?

Hi
There is a tick in the box, “Front Page, Archive Pages and search results.”

Reverting back to version 2.1.2 cured the problem.

Hi Rob,

I was unable to reproduce this. I noticed that you are using W3 Total Cache on your site, and by looking at the sourcecode of your site, it looks like you are using the Minify engine as well. As noted here, there are known issues with the W3 Total Cache and the Minify engine. Would you mind trying version 2.2 again, but this time, turn off the Minify engine, and make sure to empty the W3TC disk cache? Thank you!

Ive deactivated w3 total cache and upgraded Jetpack to 2.2 and the share buttons are no longer there on the home page, ill leave this as it is for the moment, so you can have a look.

Thanks

Ive also deactivated all plugins and that hasn’t made a difference

Ive now reverted to the old version and switch w3 back on, ill wait for the next update to try again

Ok this seems to be a problem with the show posts shortcode that im using on my front page, ive now changed the format to be a page with posts rather than using the shortcode and its now all good, still a bit strange that it worked on the last version of jetpack, was there a change that stopped sharing buttons working on posts that were being shown via a shortcode?

Hi robfoster, hmm, that is definitely interesting. Can you detail what shortcode it is that you were using, and which plugin was implementing it (I came across a few)?

The theme that i use is weaver ii pro

https://weavertheme.com

and that has a shortcode built into it that i was using which was

[weaver_show_posts cats=”news,events” sort=”DESC” number=”2″]

Ive been in touch with the theme author about it, weve tried a few scenarios, but were not sure why its stopped working with the latest update of Jetpack, hence weve found the page with posts workaround.

At the moment im not using the shortcode, but i could put it back on if you wanted, let me know if you do

Thanks

I think at this point I’d need to see the actual theme code. Would you mind asking the author if he could contact us by email at support@jetpack.me with a copy of the theme as an attachment? Thanks!
