Pinterest count broken

I can second this issue. Pinterest counts have not been displaying since Sunday.

Still haven’t heard anything..

Ditto. Been almost a couple weeks now.

Yup mine are broken too. I’m going to start trying some other share button plugins to see if the counts on any of them work.

Been over a month. Pinterest count issue still not responded to.

Hi guys,

I had this problem too and couldnt find a fix anywhere but i finally found an answer:

Simply change this (in the simple-share-buttons-adder.php):

$htmlPinterestShareDetails = file_get_contents('https://api.pinterest.com/v1/urls/count.json?callback=&url=' . $urlCurrentPage);

    $htmlPinterestShareDetails = str_replace('(', '', $htmlPinterestShareDetails);

    $htmlPinterestShareDetails = str_replace(')', '', $htmlPinterestShareDetails);

to this:

$htmlPinterestShareDetails = file_get_contents('https://api.pinterest.com/v1/urls/count.json?url=' . $urlCurrentPage);

    $htmlPinterestShareDetails = str_replace('receiveCount(', '', $htmlPinterestShareDetails);

    $htmlPinterestShareDetails = str_replace(')', '', $htmlPinterestShareDetails);

Worked for me… after much head scratching…

Worked brilliantly – thanks, Crookedmicks! I actually tried hacking that file myself to return a Pinterest count a month or two ago. Really appreciate it this.

THANK YOU! This worked perfect for me!

Crookedmicks – you’re a star. Your method worked a treat. Thank you so much! Elle from https://www.spainbuddy.com
